ELI5 Airplane Costs

Im sorry to @NicePilot3954 for the disrespectful jokes, but in all honesty, I really think its better if you email the devs your question because they may be the only ones who have the answer your looking for. Thats the last I will say on this thread.

More passengers is directly related to profit per trip. So it doesnā€™t get us to why the cost to profit ratio varies. If thereā€™s additional logic to it or if some planes are just economically better

@NicePilot3954 you need to stop flagging EVERY, SINGLE, RESPONSEā€¦

If you find every single response inappropriate after calling an admin toxic earlier for trying to help you, and suggesting people are arguing for trying to help, then I donā€™t think the forum is the place for you. Why ask the question if you are going to mark everything as being inappropriate, if itā€™s helpful or not.

This is ridiculous. 22 flagged posts, come onā€¦

Mb. Well i think the 321 is economically better but i dont think that matters. Demand does help but as i said with capacity if you have a max and a 321 neo on the same route the 321neo will always make more money.

@Ecoaviation From a person that fears and denies the fact that his point is proven wrong,iā€™m not surprised that he false flagged this much.

Right, so outside of those few spots where demand forces the smaller plane, does getting the smaller planes ever make sense? e.g,. if youā€™re starting low on cash, saving 100k vs 120k doesnā€™t really tip you towards buying a ā€œstarter planeā€ like 60k vs 120k would. And then those planes that are so cheap, the payback is so small even proportionally. So are there other things like flight speed, etc. that come in?

Technically 23 since I flagged it to complain about what he is doing.

Some planes are just cheaper than others.

Following the events of this thread, the user in question has been suspended for a week. This behaviour will not be tolerated, calling staff toxic, claiming people are argumentative and then flagging over 40 posts, subsequently wasting large amounts of staff time is not needed. Action has been taken and this thread will now be locked.
