Yes I am Air Transvaal.

The routes in Africa are quite lucrative (without hubs but hubs give only relatively minor increase) and I have not only Q400s but also many A330s and 739s now and still it is impossible to increase prices like that even between main hubs and if there is competition the prices need to go down even further. I have no plans to expand into America currently however so couldn't check whether maybe in America hubs give larger profits than here, when other people who are based in America will open more hubs we'll see.

Then couldn't we use the principle to our daily lives? I would love to reset yesterday's day at work. One thing i hate is seeing crispy critters (people burned alive) being in the job 2yrs would mean i am used to it?


What is your job? Fireman?

Skylite - well, I have many hubs too and most are larger than yours but it is possible to increase prices only somewhat due to the flight being between too hubs and not like this especially if there is competition.

Regarding Africa this is the thing I have already mentioned previously. In Africa the cities that are major in real life may be not profitable to fly to (the Johannesburg-Durban example I have mentioned, also Lagos-Abudja, Johannesburg-Cape Town to a lesser extent) however some smaller cities are profitable for some reason.

No it is not because of hubs I believe. I have hubs too and much more traffic in them than Skylite (which had just 31 aircraft by the time it was posted I believe) and prices cmight be somewhat higher but definitely not like this especially when there is competition. I think the bug may be activated by flying many aircraft (instead of higher frequency) on the same route.
