I also tried DXB-MLE (which is be flown with an A 330 in RL by Emirates, and its always full) with the same result

What was your price? I think you'll find if it's over $400, then that's the problem.
EDIT: Also, more importantly, because the B1900D only has 19 seats, it's limited.

The Fare was 300!

Its only a beech your sending on it, may be a larger aircraft might be more profitable?

But a Loadfactor of only 16% :shock: at a price of 300€ and no cmpetitor on the route, thats unbeliveable.

its normal.

This has happened to anyone who ordered a small aircraft.

I ordered 4 Do 228s and they could only be at 100% LF if the route price was 290 maximum, for the 1900D it was probably less.

Have to agree with EXTspotter here, my EMB120s were limited to around €300 and the Dash 8s are limited to €560.

Try €190 and see if thats the optimum. I put in a fix there to stop super normal profits related to small aircraft and this is the result.

Yeah, because my Dash-8's are $400 per flight.
