So start an airline that does this. See if it succeeds.
There's a reason all the carriers that are still in business subscribe to the same (or very similar) "no frills", el-cheapo, everything-is-an-extra model. Because it's the only way to stay alive and remain viable. Jury is still out with respect to Virgin America which is more similar to the "service-based" model you suggest. They have better service and amenities than most but they're not exactly thriving either, last I heard.
