Ticket Pricing ??

[Rick Taylor]

Guys,

Could someone please explain to me what the relationship is between the ticket prices you set, and the actual income you get from
passengers. There appears to be some mysterious hard coded factor embedded in FsP somewhere that changes a ticket price of
$150/PAX to $34/PAX actual income over a 140nm flight.

I've asked this before but no one seemed to know (or care).
Does anyone actually know how you control this..

Hmmm, that a good question.

I did some calculation based on 5 differents flights and it seems that the approximate formula is something like this:

(Price Set / 537 NM) X Distance traveled in NM X pax in class = income per class for trip.

That's flying a C182 with 2 Pax, and with the assumption that they are using the economy setting.

Mind you, I could be wrong but it seems close enough.

Because the price seems to be set for a distance of 530-560 NM. If you fly a route less or more than that, it's a simple rule of 3!
