is this even possible? i spent an hour on it, and seeing as ifs doesnt impact what people will pay for a ticket (to my knowledge) the best i could do was losing about 300 per passenger... the onnly way i could profit was by offering scam food, and even then it is only a slight ifs profit overall. my goal is profitable 100% service reputation. are there other factors other then ifs?

IFE.

IFE is pretty cheap and you can 5 star it relatively quickly with less losses. You can't monetize it as effectively, but that shouldn't be too big of an issue.

Well no, if you look at real airlines in the real world. There are not many airlines that actually have 5 Stars service. Most airlines reduce legroom, add more seat per rows, reduce meal sizes an streamline their fleet. And even then they still lose tons of money each year.

 

There's just not many room for 5 star airlines to be profitable. So that's why the only one operating in real life are either Government owned and lose money. Or if they got preferential treatment like JAL. But they still lose tons of money though.

No, 5-star service is never really profitable in-game or in real life.

What's the lowest per passenger loss you can get on a 5-star IFS? (And what is the config.) I got -$500, but is it possible to do better?
