Who says the cost per seat mile PHL/LAX is 12 cents or 13 cents? I thought that was the average CASM systemwide.. It doesn't seem to make much sense to apply these figures to specific routes, especially long-haul.ELP_WN_Psgr said:And if all airlines are required to price their product at cost, what in the world is USAirways doing charging $176 RT between PHL and LAX? At a CASM of around 12 cents, that seat is probably costing them close to $700 to produce.
Good point. Unfortunately, according to Unisys, US's long-haul is about 12¢/mile. Short hops like PIT-PHL are a whopping 15¢!mbmbbost said:Who says the cost per seat mile PHL/LAX is 12 cents or 13 cents? I thought that was the average CASM systemwide.
That, and the way Jim hot-rods it.BoeingBoy said:(though admittedly the higher cost of the 737 is partly due to average stage length again).

That's pretty interesting. It kind of puts a different light on increasing the long-haul flying that many of us talk about, when fares on much of it are not correspondingly higher.mweiss said:Unfortunately, according to Unisys, US's long-haul is about 12¢/mile.
