Why unable full up long route alone when RI100?

[Jackson4c]

Hi,

Game "History and the Future", 1960 October
I have trip between Milano LIMC-Miami KMIA 4274NM. Due my DC-6B limited I have refuel stop at St. John's, CYYT. So the trip plan now
LIMC-CYYT 2469NM refuel and CYYT-KMIA 1845NM  final land and back with also refuel stop included. I have two flights start at 1st Mon, Wed, Fri and 2nd Tue, Thu, Sat. Note: I know about the 7day schedule.
No over night landing or take-off due this is the bi-daily schedule:
Dep.08:30am Arr:22:40, Trip time: 20:10
Dep.06:45am Arr:06:00, Trip time: 17:15
A/B check after the plane arrive back from the 3rd trip of the week (of course after the 90min turn around time).
1st plane Y standard 75seat, C standard 8seat 2900NM range
2nd plane Y standard 85seat, C standard 4seat 2790NM range
Edit route show LIMC->KMIA max 80pax and KMIA->LMIC no limit. Both plane passenger and cargo with 50% CL/CS.

I am alone on the site 100% and RI:100. But somehow I unable transport all demand. The question why?
Estimated passanger demand: 110pass/day average lets see the forward trip
LIMC->KMIA
Demand Mon:Y93,C8,F1 Tue:Y84,C7,F1 Wed:Y79,C7,F1, Thu:Y85,C7,F1, Fri:Y96,C8,F1, Sat:Y73,C6,F1 Sun:Y75,C7,F1

Manage Route show avg LF58.3% avg.sold seat Y42, C4
Last 3week expanded stats (0min delay if not stated below nor cancel) for the 1st plane (2nd plane similar issue)
Mon:Y52,C4 Wed:Y37,C4 Fri:Y48,C5(delay 9min Lack of staff);  Mon:Y58,C6 Wed:Y58,C3(7min Airp.weather cond.) Fri:Y65,C5;  Mon:Y46,C4 Wed:Y35,C4 Fri:Y45,C5
No cargo CL nor CS transported on the LIMC->KMIA trip.
Backward KMIA->LIMC also similar low expanded stat numbers (except avg. CL93kg, CS430kg).

Clearly visible the free demand not full filled just about the half plane. Is it a problem I don't offer premium seats for long trip? Or what else if no competitor and also RI 100 already?
I fully not understand what is missing

Could be the seats, could be the price, could be your marketing. It might even be the tech stop even though that's quite common in this era.

my best would be price. With a tech stop customers won't be willing to pay top dollar. Do you get a "too small" warning when setting the route up? if you need to check do "edit route" and see if "too small" is displayed. I'd make sure price is set to default+4%. And definitely no HD seats!

The top level LF% is a 30 day rolling average, so I would check the most recent days (via "view route") to check there's not some old manky numbers dragging the average down.

I just get note about the payload limitation not about "to small" plane.
    Douglas DC-6B: Payload limitation.
        LIMC - KMIA : Limited to 80 pax by payload/range.
        KMIA - LIMC : No payload or runway limits.
I have the default prices. Similar as when you press the Reset for the "Ticket price adjustment, all sectors"

[NZelenkova]

That means your problem is the prevailing winds. It's annoying but when you're going against a headwind at close to max range for your aircraft there are going to be capacity limitations. With a strong tailwind on the return trip that's not a problem. How's your LF on the return leg?

For example your plane give no limitations but this affects on both pax and Combi plane excluding the cargo.
It just tell pax and no cargo.
I guess maybe to complex for system as planes can have so many conf. etc.

Only cargo planes count cargo.
