Average Daily Utilization-140 hours availability

Ok so lets see if this is correct. Is the 140 hours based on 20 hour days? So hours available would be divided by 7 and the number would be how many hours your plane is idle in a 20 hour period? So if your setting at 19.2 Average daily utilization your basically running your planes at max? What ADU do you need to start positively effecting your route reputation? Or am i completely wrong here?

19.2 is basically running your planes at max, yes, but i believe it is still based on 24 hour days, just 4 hours a day are unavailable for maintenance purposes. I don't know how low your util has to be before it starts really affecting your route reputation. 

thx guys

I'd recommend around 10-15 a day based on the plane. Longhaul should have higher util and shorthaul should have lower util

20 hours is the maximum you can run, so 19.2 is very close to that. 20 hours per day * 7 days a week = 140 hours in total.

Usually keep utilization between 13-15 hours, although longhaul flights might have longer.
