My airline company value is $5 million in the red. :-[
I think my biggest mistake was to lease a Tupolev 154, Ive tried putting it on profitable routes, it does make profit on the routes but maintenance and other costs are high. And it's just had a C check. >:(
My other aircraft are a leased B757, B737-200 and a Embraer EMB120. The B757 is doing fine, also the EMB120 is ok. The 737 is not the best but on the high demand routes it also ok.
I can't stop the lease of the Tupolev because that's going to cost me money which I don't have.
Would it help to pull the Tupolev out of service and just pay the monthly lease price? Or just keep it flying and hope for the best.
Ticket prices I have left all on default values. Any tips on making my airline healthy again?
I've just started this game 4 days ago (realtime) and already $5 million down in the red number, guess I'm not much of an airline CEO. ;)
I'd say there is no other way than bankruptcy since your only problem is that you have a bad fleet commonality. Having each plane of different type costs zillions to you and the route profits would have to be huge to cover those costs. So I recommend a fresh start (it is free up to 4 times..) and stick to 1 aircraft type.
Thanks! Will do that.
