Yes, but it costs even more to operate a high-jump ship, per passenger-jump, because of the tighter constraints on ship design, fuel crowding out passengers and cargo, and so forth. One would imagine that there would be a price premium on getting there faster, analogous to the good old days of Concorde vs. standard jet liners.

Costs of operating a starship means that it has to be per jump, or the owners will be even broker.

I asked:

Thanks! Once I managed to get my brain back in gear, I found the exact
same answer in T5.
FWIW, T5 also more-than-doubles the benefits of a TAS membership,
compared to CT.

And now you know why very few high-jump passenger and freight services exist in TUs that use the canon pricing.
