Title: Curious about some stats
Post by: Chaxterium on October 04, 2012, 06:28:45 AM
Hello,

I was wondering about the Yield/RPM and Revenue/ASM stats. I know what everything stands for but I'm curious what the significance is? Other than the higher the better. How can you use these stats to your advantage? I have some routes with lower numbers making more money than routes with higher numbers so I'm not sure what these stats tell me.

Cheers,
Chax

I´m afraid you won´t find anybody telling you what do to at what exact numbers. If you already found out you´re making more money with one flight than another one, you obviously already found out yourself. If some of the numbers are red it only might tell you that you possibly can make more money on that route serving/pricing it differently or that the aircraft serving it might be better used on another route.
