Airlines are capping prices on flights out of Florida after people attempting to evacuate before Hurricane Irma hits spoke out against skyrocketing costs.

Fliers were charged up to $3,000 for domestic flights that typically cost just a fraction of that, the Miami Herald reported.

While airlines are not subject to Florida’s price-gouging laws, many people saw the inflated prices as unethical and dangerous as people were trying to evacuate the area.
