It is my observation that airlines operating international flights always make more money.... is it right??

lord voldemort

reason i feel such is because after some time , there is no room for expansion for domestic careers.also salary amount is greater for domestic careers

No.

You are limited on international flights through demand, too. Salary is usually higher for international carriers because they need very large pilots and way higher numbers of flight attendants.


At the end of the day a domestic airline out of Atlanta has the same possibilities than a longrange airline out of Hong Kong for example.

i am bsed out of atlanta only... i feel people having base in heathrow have more opportunities compared to competition they face.... my airline is at number 3 in beginers world... but i don't have any scope of expansion.. :(

LHR airlines are well off because of the premium demand.

In reality, the shorter the distance you can fly the better your chances of turning a profit as the marginal income of flying longer won't offset your increased fuel prices.  That's why you don't see 10,000nm routes in AWS (or IRL)--they are difficult to fly profitably.
