Then you must know how annoying it is to get another competitor from Hannover  :lol:

Yes, I have strong competition in Hannover, Madeira and Heraklion and Tromso is getting crowded more and more. I have to update my routes almost every hour to keep the LF on a good level. I dont care about routes that have a LF above 90% but I just saw 27% on one of my routes. Thats nasty. Those routes I usually put down below 100 EUR fare. So this guys wont make any profit with their LockhĂ©eds  :twisted:

The lockheeds make good profit on very low prices.. such as 100-200.. still can earn 50.000

at 300.... 80.000  8)

What about multiples of 0.5 on the same route?

A->B = 6x2.5
A->B = 2x1.5
A->B = 1x0.5

Is that legal?

Consider me crazy then! It's dropped my profit to just over $1000 for the entire route.

 :shock:

If he wants to drop his own profit then fine, I have other profitable routes.  :wink:

If you have extra unwanted tiny props, put 2 0.5's on there (with like DH.Dove, or DC-3's) and you may actually make some money while the other guy lose more :wink: (Let's hope I will not regret saying this... but I have a feeling that it would come back to haunt me :roll: )
