Does the route generation algorithm take speed into account?
It seems like when I generate/update a route I can charge higher/same prices for a faster plane but I have to undercut to get passengers on a slower plane.
Am I missing something? Or is it programmed to make passengers desire a 2 hour flight over a 3 hour flight?

thats life
no one wants to take a 6 hour flight on propeller plane
when they can pay 40 bucks more and be there in an hour

Yes, speed is taken into account. a 2 hr flight vs a 3 hr flight should not have the same weight as a 20 hr vs a 21 hr flight, however. it still does have an impact.

Thank you for the answer.
It's nice to know I'm not crazy on at least one thing.
