maxalt - you're assuming there that every pax is point to point which is blatantly incorrect. You'll need to dilute those revenues substantially (like by at least 50%) to take into account prorate. Next, you're again assuming that everyone is paying market fares. There will be a lot of corporate customers and government employees in C class - so knock off a few percent for that as well (like 25%). Next, factor in all the staff passengers plus people travelling on ID and AD tickets and I would be very surprised indeed if the average A321 is yielding much over IR£20k - if that.
