Upstream Travel Index Dashboard with a detail panel open for ‘Average Flight Cost’ in September 2025. The panel highlights that the average flight cost climbed 13.5% to $731, driven by a surge in premium cabin bookings. A yellow warning box notes an anomaly: airfare increased 13.5% in a single month, far higher than the usual 2–3% variance, with a 42% rise in premium bookings. Below, a small line chart shows average flight cost at $731. Explanatory text describes how business and first-class bookings contributed most of the increase, with premium policies adding significant expense, while economy bookings rose less sharply.

The message template says: “Alert: Average Flight Cost has exceeded the threshold by {actual_value}%. Immediate review recommended.” A preview at the bottom confirms the condition: “When % Change exceeds 10%, send email notification to specified recipients.” Two buttons at the bottom read “Cancel” and “Create EDA.”
