Hi. I have a big burden right now. You see, i run a budget airline in AM, and most of my fleet is leased. So far i have no problems with finances and my load factor is good. My only concern is that my bank balance is quite small, and when i do get some cash, i spend it by investing in new routes. Now i'm left in thinking, will i still earn profit as time goes on? What if i can't pay my leased planes? It has bothered me so much that i've decided to sell one of my own B737-200s. But i'm still left with a big question...will i survive in the long run? Any opinions guys?

Go to finance and have a look at your income statement. If you are running an overall profit in your monthly projection, then you are fine.

There is no such thing as "can;t pay your leases" in AM. The money would be deducted regardless and you would go into negative cash if you don't have enough cash.

Thanks for your opinion. But am i growing too fast? Because i just keep on spending my money investing on new routes and there are even some routes that aren't really provitable (my Dublin route). Should i slow down?
