On some of my routes, there is no competition and my loadfactor is 100% but then the next real life day, the loadfactor drops (along with my revenue/profit) but there is no other competiton on the route. Is this a bug?

That's because your competition has their routes autopriced, so when you create the route their prices will drop.

The revenue calculator does its calculations based on the route before you put it on.

Probably the same as sim 2 , the auto pricing is not working correctly. Just use manual retro old skool pricing :sdrool:

It tumbles after the first year because the routes get saturated so quickly :)

Does someone else think the profits on long haul flight are way low?? just doesnt make sense that on rotes with no competition going lets say from CDG or LHR to US cities I get less that 100k profit.. .... even the math on route calculation doesn add up...

Example******
LHR - CLT One Way
Distance - 3,982nm

Aircraft Selected:
Aircraft
Number Type Seats Hours
Available Cost to
Fly Route Ticket
Price Frequency
2064 757-200 220 0 $94,243 $1,781 1

Ticket Price Automatically Set at: $1,781

Load Factor - %100.00

Projected Revenue - $187,630

Projected Profit - $93,386

This is my CLT LHR route...100% load factor ..ticket price $1,781.....projected rev $187,630 minus cost to fly route $94,234 = profit of 93,386......
but if its 100% load at $1781 price per ticket should it not be $391,820 projected revminus cost to fly of $94,234 for profit of $297,586??? or am I missing something????
