Title: UNDERSTANDING A ROUTE
Post by: jamboy2378 on February 11, 2009, 01:17:28 AM
Ok....I look at a projected route and it tells me 'x' amount of Y/C class passengers and up top the avg daily and total monthly pax pretty much adds up.

What is the green 'all avlb' passengers thing???????????? Take a look at the pic. Who the heck are all those people? Am I to think that there's 600 plus waiting in the wings?

Any info on this would be appreciated!

The green bar shows how much capacity is being offered by airlines on that route.  So, in your example, 600 seats are available each day for a demand of little over 200 passengers per day.  Overcapacity is being offered on the route, driving down prices and lowering load factors.

Quick question and probably stupid one at that.

The demand figures are they the demand in one direction or in both directions

for example it shows a figure of 230 passengers per day is that 230 in both directions or is it split between the going and returning for example 115 each way?

I know silly question, but just need to get it clarified.
