Can somebody please explain the difference in the price for 22/6..and the other days?
Answer summary
The high price variance for flights on June 22 compared to other days may be attributed to various factors including potential availability of only business class seats, the pricing algorithms utilized by airlines, and demand fluctuations. Observations indicate that flight prices can vary daily based on the specific routes, available airlines, and market demand. Commenters suggest that this particular day may have limited airline options, likely due to scheduling conflicts, which could force travelers to aggregate different airlines, further driving up the price.

Most likely a combination of different airlines because Etihad isn't flying your route that day. Basically they are saying "choose Etihad on another day, or another airline for that day".

The difference is caculated by the algorythm . Same all over the world for any transportation company : planes , trains ,boats , buses. Nothing new here . It's been going on for decades.

Prices may even vary minute to minute . It's called variation du to offer vs requirement( demand).

Prices go crazy like that when certain airlines are not available and the only way to complete a 1 stop trip is to put two airlines together that don't belong to the same group.

I think they do that when no flight is available same as Singapore airlines

It looks like Etihad is not flying on the 22nd and 24th of June.

Airlines use a complex algorithm for booking flights, here are some of the considerations: Shorter direct flights tend to be more expensive, day time flight more expensive. Some routes Monday and Friday are more expensive because they attract business travel, some airlines give a basic price and then offer upgrades for flexibility, seat allocation and baggage. If the flight is nearly fall the price will rise. In the case you shown I suspect its due the higher price being business.
