Answer:

  The DC flight

Step-by-step explanation:

A fixed amount ($50) is always a larger fraction of a smaller number. It is a larger fraction of $200 than of $1250. The plane flight to Washington DC is affected relatively more by a variation of $50.

__

A price change of $50 on a base price of $200 is a percentage change of 25%.   50/200 × 100% = 25%

A price change of $50 on a base price of $1250 is a percentage change of about 4%.  50/1250 × 100% = 4%
