You can talk about your shiney toys, You can talk about DOC's and you can talk about the fuel price.
But I am afraid the truth is that providing you offer an acceptable cabin service on a nice looking a/c that can operate on time you will get the work.
It comes down to seat cost to whoever charters the aircraft.
Lease the a/c in during peak times, charge top dollar and give the a/c back in low season.
Then you dont have to lose half your profit from the summer during the winter.
As the thread says at the beginning, you are going to see some nice B742's in the UK market this summer..... and they are being snapped up very fast at a good seat rate. Just watch ?
