Operational Difficulties in Adjusting Schedules

• Equipment turn around time

  • Approx. 90 minutes for B747 aircraft
  • Approx. 30 minutes for regional turboprops

• Chain Reaction effect

• Load factor leverage
  Small reduction in load factor ? major revenue reduction
  
  Loss of 10 passengers daily on BOM - DEL route due to schedule change
  = 10 * Rs 5000 * 30 days * 12 months = 18 Lakh Rupees annual revenue loss !
