So are you saying that the total capacity increase of 10% happened for a large part on long haul then?Flanker wrote: Tolipanebas gives you an analysis of all revenues combined and all traffic combined from the balance sheet, but didn't SN have extra capacity last year? An extra A330 was added and started flying in Q3 2010.
This added quite some revenue and also quite some capacity.
Then what's all your talk about them dumping huge amounts of extra capacity on shorthaul routes about?
Sorry, but you sound confused once again...
Have a look at this topic in which you and I both participated:Flanker wrote: There is still a 15% gap in fuel burn between an A319 and an RJ85.
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=47310
yet now suddenly you'll disagree with that and say that the A319 is consuming 15% more than an RJ?
Has time come to argue with yourself again, like you have done in the past, or are you just talking on an irrelevant hourly basis just to make a smartlooking but completely pointless remark in order to confuse everybody? Note how he did say tripfuel, which is indeed what matters...
Besides, even if, what's the material impact of this going to be on the end result, you think?
As far as I know, and correct me if I am off, not more than 4 RJs were exchanged with a similar number of A319s last year. That's roughly 10% of their European fleet, right? So 10% of 15% = 1,5%, provided all those planes flew from the first of January, which was obviously not the case, so let's cut it down to just a potential 1% extra increase in total fuel cost due to the chance: completely irrelevant indeed.
Which I -just like FlyBe- feel he did.Flanker wrote:A balance sheet is used only to analyse the general health of a company and to mark very general trends.
With limited numbers and in a very brief way, he has managed to paint a perfectly clear, understandable and fairly accurate view of where the main issue is situated and it's fairly obvious from his brief analysis that the main issue is indeed the agressive increase in oil prices and the unplanned consequences this has had on the budget: nowhere do I see even a shred of evidence of your often repeated claim that they are flying too big planes and that this is what has caused the massive losses; in fact, he has given credibility to the idea that not only do they seem to have managed to fill the extra capacity quite nicely indeed, but also have they been able to more than offset the added cost of that extra capacity. Whatever far more detailed segmented figures may show, it's fairly unrealistic to expect them to be so much off from the general trend which tolipanabes has shown us, that this trend can be completely inversed, so it seems to me like you have just been eating sour grapes over this, something which nicely matches the way in which you are reacting to all this...
