    They already do. Book months in advance, like you would for a vacation, is normally cheaper than booking last minute for a funeral.

      I’ll be sure to ask my mom to die in 3 months from now so that i can get my seat on a plane. I’s supposed to be that you give the airline a copy of the death certificate and they allow you to fly for a discounted rate.

      Exactly this. I needed a day return on short notice the last time I had to take a flight for a funeral, so that would be business price for tickets rather than leisure price. About 10x price difference, but there was no alternative if I was going to be there.
