Just trying to figure out why airfare is higher for a family of four per person versus a family of three per person? Was searching for a flight and noticed that I entered 3 instead of 4. When I corrected to 4, the airfare changed to an additional $47 per person for the same flight. Went back to 3 and it changed back to the lower cost. Total cost was $188 higher for booking as a family of 4.

So while checking out fares for an upcoming family vacation, I came across different fares when toggling from 3 adults to 4 adults. Of course my family of 4 (2 are over the age of 2 so are now adults) gets the shaft as there is a $47 increase for the same flight when toggling on and off the fourth person. This just blows me away that I am getting penalized by $188 (4 x $47) for having one extra person in my family. Has this always been a common practice and is there any way around this other than booking me separately than the rest of my family?
