Most people spend $3 per day on coffee, so why not $3 per month for the heads up on flights that are hundreds of dollars off regular fares? I dont find the comparison very compelling. If I can save more per year than I pay, it's a good deal. In that vein, I'd like to see how my travel habits could be accommodated by the info the newsletter provides. If I believe it's a fit, I'd happily pay the money.
Article title is inaccurate: this project gets 8K in revenue per year but has almost no profit.

I seriously doubt most people spend $1000/year on coffee. Many, maybe, but definitely not most .
I'm pretty sure Scott's Cheap Flights[1] makes a good deal more. It's going to be hard to have a big enough audience if you limit yourself to only one city. [1] https://scottscheapflights.com/
Money from this is dwarfed by my day job income so I’d be happy with $1,000 per month
Why doing it only for flights departing PHL instead of generalizing the system to other airports?
It just takes too much time and effort to keep it up for multiple audiences. It’s not automated — it’s all about the curation. There are plenty of similar sites that cover many more airports though

"Tech" company "business models" do not require actual profits.

I certainly don’t use this coffee comparison in the actual marketing. I anchor the price against the average per ticket savings and sometimes compare it to “less than the cost of a checked bag”
