Question about
Case
I want to receive updates regarding this question via email.

Route C really profitable?

Hi all,

I stumbled across the answer to question 3, which states that route C is very profitable.

If the break even number of passengers per hour is 70, then we would at least need 140 passengers e.g. in the time between 7-9 to be profitable. But utilization is only 120 passengers, so it does not look profitable.

Am I missing something?

Thanks!

David

Hi David,

Perhaps the exhibit shows hourly demand in 2h intervals so you have 120 pax 7-8 and 120 pax 8-9. It would be worth clarifying the unit on the exhibit.

Hope this helps!
