In Topic: What is this?

I am not using connecting passengers on my $1 routes; neither am I making several hundred per passenger off of IFS. 

 

The profit off these routes barely covers - but does cover - the total cost of owning gates/planes, maintenance, and salaries. As BookSiberia hinted, there is a deeper game than short term profits at play. 

 

Even within that deeper game, there is still a more efficient way to use the aircraft currently flying these routes. 

 

The key to this game, however, is making the right tradeoffs between efficiency with time and efficiency with resources. 

I call BS. You're severely underscoring these costs, as 550 pax buying $1 tickets do not cover the maintenance costs on a 747. 

Therefore, scam IFE and/or IFS must be in play.

But your starting aircraft is 2 or 3 years old when you get it so it makes sense.

At the same time, you can't buy more DC-7s to keep your mx cost down.

Ok dude - you should stop... why don't you try to run an actual airline?!

Or at least a Ryanair-esque spamline?

The guy with 27k is either a loon who's bleeding cash, a blue-pax spamline, or both.

Cosa Nostra Airlines (mine), aka the mob.
