I run these planes:

 

A310-300

An-28

737-300

Saab 340B

767-300ER

 

The Airbus A310 SUCKS. Don't buy it. Spend your money on a 767-300ER it has better fuel economy.

The An-28's and Saab 340B work really well for airports that cost $300-$2000 per month covering the whole airport's gates in one frequency. Also they always get max Legroom reputation.

 

Here is my routes

Lol, why would you use A310 for short haul anyway? Use A300 instead

[konj1]

Well, I see a lot of people trying to use A310 where they could use A300, I just don't get what do you expect, do you think the name A310 is more modern and cool or what?

Why would you even compare it to 763???

Things are simple, 763 is meant to compete with A300 and A300 is arguably even more efficient, and A310 is a later down-size that was meant to compete with equally less efficient 762. That's it.

Why would you use A310 when you can use A300?

Dude! Seriously,

Why are you going around necro'ing all these old threads? With absolutely nothing new to add?

 

You're litterally the worst person to have in a Forum.

777 and 330 serve completely different markets

777 are for LH

333 is for SH-MH trunk routes

Firstly, you can serve whatever markets you want. This is AE.

Secondly, in real life the A330-300 runs way longer routes than the 777-300, which mainly runs intra-Asia or Japanese domestic trunk routes, not the other way round. If you can't differentiate between the 777-300 and 777-300ER, you need to look them up on Wikipedia.

Here, you're wrong whether you're talking about AE or real life.

You do know in Asia a lot of carriers (especially EK, SQ, CX) uses the 777 on short-haul trunk routes, especially routes with high demands and limited landing slots?

Anyways, the above guy is right. Your username appears on every topic. Not that it's wrong, nothing wrong about frequent posters. But the thing is, I see your username on topics where there isn't any activity for 7 to 12 months, bumping old threads is not necessary unless you have something extremely important to post. Plus, on this page itself, you have five consecutive posts, each post as a reply to another post. It seems like your intention is to increase your posts count rapidly. Next time, I'd suggest combining the replies into one post.

He probably wants like 3000 posts like TNT or something.

 

Anyway I've experimented with a bit. Pretty much anything could be profitable. Hell, I bet even a TU-144S could be profitable. Even if it makes 1 dollar profit per month, profit is profit.

[TheGreatOP]

If you actually make the Tu-144S profitable I wanna see.

Hypothetical,

Spam IFS/IFE,

Business/Economy only,

Super massive/busy route,

Limited flights

Jack up the prices

 

Would that do the trick?

 

You'd want a route as close to the max range (2890 miles)

I'll do it.

I know that the Concorde can make a profit with those settings (I've done it before), especially since its turn time has been reduced (previously it was an unreasonable 2 hours!), but is the Tu-144's fuel flow too much to overcome? I honestly don't know, but I think you'd need to schedule it on just about every single route with limited flights that you could jack up prices on that's near to the maximum range. It may be possible if the plane is only based at certain hubs with good geographic positioning.

 

I'll do it.

Good luck!

Boeing 747 (Long Haul)

I can make profit out of it

The Concorde is a fuel nightmare.

This post needs to be pinned. 

[tigerair737]

For me, the Canadair Yukons made my DOP go up by hundreds of thousands when I was starting out. A good aircraft for flights below 3hrs in the 70's.

Airbus A319-100 LR!

 

I'd say this is better than the A320-200. The A319 boasts longer range, cheaper maintainance costs and sadly lower seating.

 

I run both airliners at the same seating configuration. The A319 is the star player for my airline. On long-haul transport I'd say the 777 and the 787. With longer range and more fuel efficient than their Airbus counterparts.

 

If you're looking for regional airliners.

 

The ATR fleet is better than the Bombadier Dash series.

The ATR fleet beats up the Bombadier Dash series. Even the newer Bombadier Dash Q400 "NextGen" gets beated up here.

757 is OP on transcontinental flight(JFK-LAX,JFK-SEA etc)

[hikar0o]

727 is a bit LOL on flights around 1500 mi

[markantony9692]

737-300. I just bought a 757-200 and honestly, the demand between DUB- east coast is atrocious. So basically I'm making more between DUB and ZRH than DUB-BOS... but still, $400k a day is 400k a day

[Jacob Sartorius]

Beachcraft Bonanza is the best 

Tons of seats

Very fast

lots of Miles

Cheap
