The general point here is that your individual behavior as a consumer likely doesn't impact this mechanism. An aircraft doesn't skip a flight just because you waited a week to go on vacation. Aviation infrastructure is something of a fixed-cost which would likely only respond to systemic changes in travel demand, economic impacts on maintenance or fueling, or possibly some other form of regulation (e.g. a penalty for inducing contrails).
