You can get $500 one way flights from Bangkok if you are willing to accept 23 hour layovers in Singapore and KL. $500 return is nonsense. Did you even bother to read the link you posted? This is what it says: "Jet fuel is expected to cost, on average, 70% more than in 2025, according to the International Air Transport Assn. Airlines, in turn, have raised ticket costs, hiked baggage fees and slapped on fuel surcharges while slashing flights or backing off from plans for added routes. Lufthansa Group, for one, cut 20,000 short-haul flights. Spirit Airlines, though troubled for years, evaporated. “The likelihood that fuel surcharges are going to be rolled back and airfares are going to be brought down is very low over the next few months,” said Brett House, a Columbia University economist. “There is less choice for consumers and less competition between airlines, and therefore, less pressure to rein in fare increases.”
