Their costs are lower per sector than you have calculated as they work their aircraft and crews hard and as has been pointed out not all seats are sold at rock bottom prices, in fact last minute they are as expensive as the "higher fare" airlines. The model's not broke yet as their latest results showed - the level of profit and operating margin are still the highest in the industry.
