Hi guys

There something that I don't understand about frequencies.

If I do twice a day a flight (freq = 2), why should the ticket price be cheaper to have a 100% load factor ?
It also appears that having 2 same routes with freq 1x is better than 1 route freq 2x. Can someone explain ?

Thanks for answer ;)

Pierre

Please read the other threads in the forum.

The 2 round trips provide double the amount of seats to the same amount of customers when compared to 1 round trip. According to supply and demand, the price decreases.

The other point concerning 2*1 > 1*2... that is sort of a formula .. emm... flawn, which is being discussed among the admins right now.
