Kinda confused here, what makes an airline a spamliner? Also, is my airline a spamliner?

I'm pretty sure a spamliner is an airline that operates a low demand route with aircraft that have lots of seats, like an A380. For example, a spamliner would operate a route with only 10 demand, for example, using an A380 with all economy seats, establish hubs on both sides of the route (for connecting pax), then set the ticket price to $1. I think that's how it works.

Not always, they could be unrealistic airlines who flew Soviet aircrafts in 2020 in the US or Daily Utilization of aircrafts at 19+ hours or have aircrafts that are 30-40 years old.

too true.

 

Last time I checked, UAL didnt operate the 747-400M and most certaintly did not operate the Boeing 737-300 in a 2/15/105 configuration, nor did they operate the ATR42/72 and CRJ200 at a mainline level.
