Ok, let's get this straight: who will fly F in a regional or secondary airport? The demand is redundant, so please remove the F demand altogether when it's only less than 5 or so.

Also, lower F demand on short routes (like JFK-ATL or PEK-HND, it's like spam for almost every airline that flies on that route to offer F on that route). Don't remove it altogether though.

And then the C demand. It should be more at "business like" destinations than general "normal-low-cost" destinations.

Make F/C higher on premium routes (like transcon in US)

There's always a market for those willing to pay a bit more to travel in greater comfort to their holiday destinations, hence BAs admittedly crappy business class.

I don't really agree. My airlines generally rely on F/C demand to operate, so it wouldn't work very well for them.

I always thought BA neglected leisure travelers as their marketing has primarily targeted the business market.
