Indeed. The internal CASM that the company uses adjusts for the difference in cabin configurations as well. Technically it''s called "CESM" - Cost per Equivalent Seat Mile.On 3/31/2003 4:34:48 PM AA80Driver wrote:

USAir announced they have lowered theirs from 12.5 cents to 10.5 cents, and they hope to get it down close to 10 cents. I believe WN''s is somewhere around 7.5 cents?
