The pricing model also doesn't account for price discrimination. The average fare for an airplane is normally NOT at the supply-demand intersection point-because airlines price discriminate the average is somewhere between that equilibrium point and the highest market bearing fare.

Game Strategy / Re: The stupidity of Multifreq

It's a valid but stupid strategy. Obviously, most of the people that do 10-frequency flights here don't understand the concept of opportunity cost. Or supply and demand for that matter.

None of the above: price.

The game's too easy and gets boring past the first, oh, 12 days, when it becomes an exercise of changing prices every hour.

Well some of you know more about me than I care to let you know, so I'm not going to mention my name. It'll likely compromise my anonymity here :) But here's some more information: I live in California, and I go to university in New York. Econ major/law and society minor with law school and lawyer aspirations. I'm 20.

Some info about me:

Favored airlines

Asiana
jetBlue
Singapore Airlines


Favorite Airplanes:
- Boeing 777-200ER/300ER
- E-190 series
- Airbus A320/A321
- Airbus A340-500/600


Planes I don't like:
- All turboprops (loud, slow, ugh)
- A318/319 (they look, well, awkward)
- A380 (from a business and aesthetic standpoint)
- The entire UA fleet (this is specific to the UA fleet; 777's operated by Asiana, for example, are fine by me :) )
- All regional jets (horribly uncomfortable, and some of them ugly to boot)
- Russian planes (they look, well, so ugly)
- 737's (they're too short)


Most used airplane in AM (as of Januari 20 2009):
I haven't played in a while, but I think it was the A320 series and the A330-200.


Have been passenger in (most recently):
United Airlines (p.s.) Boeing 757-200
United Airlines (SkyWest) EMB-120
United Airlines A319
United Airlines Boeing 757-200
United Airlines CRJ-700
Asiana Airlines Boeing 777-200ER
Asiana Airlines Boeing 747-400
Virgin America A320
jetBlue Airways A320
....and that's as far as I'm willing to list.

Want to fly once in:
An airbus widebody (all my widebody flights have been in Boeings as far as I know)
The Whalejet
Boeing 787 (if that thing ever gets around to actually flying)
A350XWB (ditto)
Concorde  :(

When I'm not playing AM:
-Playing AM (different AM, not Airline Mogul)
-Studying for whatever exam my professors decide to throw at me
-Doing whatever problem set/homework my professors decide to throw at me
-Looking for an internship in a horribly down economy
-Studying for the LSAT (alas, I still haven't been released from the death grip of standardized exams)

Does anyone want to take over management of this world (if it's possible at all)? I haven't been playing much either.

Aaron-Asia's full. Sorry.

Unfortunately Asia is full, but we can put you on the waitlist, or give you a slot in South America, Middle East, Central America or Oceania.
