Hi!

I am rather new to all of this so I´m sorry if this is old question, but...

If I have scheduled my B check to be performed on Sunday at 02:00 to Mon 02:00, (last week of the month), how can I manage to create a route that flies only three sundays/month?

Because if I schedule my plane to fly to somewhere on Sundays, every fourth sunday I´ll have a cancellation...

Thx!

It won't be a cancellation against you, the route(s) simply won't be flown that week.  You shouldn't hesitate to schedule routes during that 200-200 time period, but be aware that a 5-hour A-check does need to be scheduled where no flights can occur.  The easiest way to do this is either 7-day scheduling (search forums) or simply skip a day on one of your flights.  You typically want to schedule A-checks between 2300-500, the hours where demand is at its lowest.

You won't have a cancellation, the route just won't be flown. Since you know about it in advance, you don't sell tickets for that route, so there are no upset pax when their flight gets cancelled.

You don't do a thing. Once the B check is in scheduling you are done.
