Hi All,

Can someone please help me with C Checks. Previously I have moved all schedules to  a spare plan so I dont loss load factor or Company Image and Route Image.

But this requires keeping a spare aircraft or cancelling other routes.

What would happen if I didn't transfer the route to another aircraft ?
Do I need to transfer routes or is it not worth it?
Thanks in advance

Over time, you will learn not to care about this.  Just let it happen, honestly.  If you build a huge airline and you keep trying to do this, you will have to play over 8 hours per day. 

You won't lose your slots.  Your R/I won't take a huge hit.

Only thing that is affected is RI, which may lose 5 points. But, you'll get that back very soon after the check.
I've had lots of D checks without spare aircraft, and even then no problems.

Many thanks Swiftus and JPS - appreciate your time. :)

Well, I play about 14h/day (except sleeping time and the time on my way to and from school)... I still don't schedule around C-cheks... D-checks though are a different thing, but that hasn't got to do with the not flown time, but rather with their prices (on a 16yr B742 it costs nearly 10M bucks...)

Anyways, don't care for C-checks ;)
