Hi,

I have on a route 283 seats, the demand is 150 and I got a message for oversupply. I thought I could do a maximum of 2x the demand. I'm I right?

Thanks!

That's also ok.

To make it even stranger, I just checked the route in violation, the demand is 164 and I offer only 141 ....   ???

The demand number presented to you is only with 90-95% accuracy, thus the real demand on the route could be 140/day which would trigger the violation.  If you refresh route planning a few times you'll see that the demand numbers will change with each reload.

Yep thanks I see!

I removed a route, just to be sure.

Thanks everyone.

Well, if you supply 141 passengers, and the values reach from say 130-160, the warning should not pop up, since a little oversupply is no rule violation. As stated in the rules: 200% are "granted" to every airline, so you'd need to put at last 260 seats for 130PAX demand on the route.
