When I am configuring aircraft seat layouts it shows the passenger comfort level of either poor, fair, good, or excellent. I was wondering what does this comfort rating affect? route image? company image? LF? ticket price? profit?
Also, do ticket prices vary for different seat types (high density, standard, premium) within the same seat class (coach/economy, business, first)? For example- does a standard economy seat earn more than a high density economy seat?
Most people use the standard seats. Then they'll get enough passengers and good LF. If you use the high density, you can have more passengers on board, but it is possible that even though there would be demand, your aircraft isn't (even near) full. That is because people don't want to flight too uncomfortable.
The high density might work with lower ticket prices and no competition, but usually I think the standard is better to use...

I thought Sami didn't code for the standard, high-den, and all those stuff to have differences?

Well, coded or didn't code, that's how it should at least eventually work.. I don't know if they make the difference yet...
yeah i think its planned, so my advice would be to go for standard at least not the high density stuff, that way when the change comes in your profits dont tumble because nobody wants to fly in a sardine can.
