Hi all,
when you can say that an airline is overloading a route, i had on one route max pax is 287 i am doing 148 all available seats is 455pax, there are only 2 flights so my competitor is doing 307 pax, since i got cought by the system for overloading aroute i had to reconfigure my A/C how the overloading route rule works?
thank you

Route oversupply warnings are given out if an airline is offering more than 200% seats of demand of any day. That means, you can´t offer twice the seats of lowest demand day. Try to stay below that value using the seat limiter function.
This rule is valid per airline regardless if competed or not.
Demand on lowest day (usually Saturday) x 2 - 1 = the highest number of seats you can legally offer without getting an automated warning.
You might still get a warning now and then because demand fluctuates, and also demand of the return flight might be lower so you better check that also when planning to offer much more than the demand.
