The demand for air travel between two cities doubles. The elasticity of the supply of air travel between these cities will become more​ elastic, the longer the time since demand doubled. Elasticity is the responsiveness between supply or demand when nothing changes but the price. In this situation, the demand for air travel between two citifies doubled, so, the traveling is elastic because even though the demand rose, so did the price, but the demand didn't start to drop.
