CRJ 1000EL not profitable?

30 May 2011 - 11:20 PM

I know I saw this brought up for the CRJ 200, but I've just ordered and scheduled the CRJ 1000EL and it will not show a profit on any route. The Plane shows a $980 hourly cost so I should be able to make profits pretty easily. Anyone else flying this type of plane or have any ideas?
I'm flying it on MCO-TYS, PHL-CAK, MCO-CAK routes and it is loosing money hand over fist. All routes show demand of 100-130 pax a day and I am flying a configuration of 2/4/85. Showing fuel cost alone of $60k plus taxes and crew costs, while income is only 30k.
