The ticket price issue

[hihibbb2468]

As we all know the main income of the airline is the ticket price
But I find the ticket price of FSP quite weird.
Sometimes I flew longer route, but the price remain more or less the same as shorter flight

And if I had more Pax, the ticket price income should be higher, but that's not the case

So I want to know, which factors affecting the ticket price income
In common sense, should be the Traveling Time and the Pax, but not the case for FSP

Also should there be any improvement on this issue if any patches available

The flight distance affects the overal ticket price income.

A few days ago, I flew from VHHH - WSSS and made 22,000,000 somethings
But yesterday to OMDB, just 19,000,000, that's odd

The shorter the flight the less amount of cash you make from the ticket prices.

there is also a limit, i believe, where if you fly further, you wont earn more. Think its around 3000nm - so if you fly 3000nm, you will get the same
income as flying 7000nm.

If you wanna earn more money during long flight, increase the ticket price in the FSP menu!

Hey, there no rules of that
I flew to YSSY today, but only earned around $11,000,201

This is my flight log, see, only $11,xxx,xxx
And I had normal price setting

Is that there is a maximum for ticket income, say 3000nm
So fly further than 3000 nm will not increase the ticket income, but only fuel used.
As a result, the earning is smaller

I think that is the case, yes.
Its somewhere around 3000, but dont recall the exact distance.

But that should not be realistic at all. In reality, the price should be increased according to distance.
Last flight was EGLL-KJFK about 3000nm, so I made 22,839,281, huge money

The ticket price is also not the same if you fly 3000 miles from airport x to KJFK, and the second time you fly 3000 miles from airport y to KJFK. It
also depends on the amount of passengers, that changes when you flew from/to airport x more often than from/to airport y.

I flew 2990 nm from KJFK to EGLL and made LESS than when I flew from KDFW to KJFK by about 2.5 million !!!
