Would Profit Margin be a better measure as to the success, or otherwise, of an airline than say book value?

I never do layoffs and my employees are too busy to quit)
There should be a pax boost for happy, motivated employees.
I mean, less complaints and more partying aboard are always fun, right?
(6-11% here. Including fleet renewal costs.)

Employee morale factors into airline reputation and on-time performance, so it indirectly helps you

Airline rep was obvious, on-time performance not. Thanks.

Mine hovers between 0.5-2.5%, which is excellent, as a real airline is in the region of 1.5%.
Exactly! I'm not too sure why Yuxi thinks it's good to boast about a 30% profit margin, this just highlights how unrealistic AE is.

I liked TW and it's gone. NW, and it's gone. CO, and it's gone. Pray I don't like you.

This is not a discussion about realism. It's a game, and the default ranking happens to be valuation. So I can boast if I damn want to

Well said.......coming up to four complete years in S1 and running at between 20-21%. The most unrealistic part of the game is how, unless based in a major country, or Europe, there is a lack of competition on international routes. That is down to player choice.
