The few times I have tried to use them I have ended up hemmoragging money or scraping out meager profits flying them only once or twice a week. I want to try to make an airline based around SSTs. Anyone have any advice on how to make money with SSTs?

SST?

Concorde & TU-144

Concordes are easy to make money with, not that much but in the right routes and if you put scamIFS on that route its more than enough to support that route

It's kind of like how you create a billion-dollar airline in real life. First, you start with two billion dollars...

its very hard to make money with SSTs

I suppose you might be able to eek out a small profit if you were flying them on a solo route.

 

 

The moment someone drops onto the route with a more fuel effiicient economical plane and starts squeezing the fares on you, you will be toast.

 

You're $350 million aircraft will then become a nice museum piece.

It is true you need scam IFS to make anything in my experience, and use them as much as possible too

I have been operating Concordes with 4* IFS and 4* IFE (that's a profit hit right there) on a route with competition and still getting plenty. My airline in R4 based in Bahrain only seems to get profits on flights into Europe though. Its all about finding the right route and you can profit

I think they would make more money as a restaurant.   Or   a gas station    .  It would be real cool to have gas pumps under the wings. And use them to keep the weather off of you. While  you are filling up.

known for their leaks though, fuel station may not be the best idea, was the start of the end of Concorde

I think a restaurant is a bit unpractical too
