Just going off the subject for a second, I was wondering if somebody could explain the theory behind putting an A332 on the 07:25 MAN-AGP & a B752 on the 09:00 MAN-LXR on a Monday morning? Surely these machines would be better suited the opposite way round
No not neccessarily, obviously both aircraft are more than capable of doing either routes however, the pax loads on the AGP route are booked very high and any tour operator would be struggling to fill an A330 with over 350 seats to LXR at the minute. So it's bascically load factors playing the decider here, no point sending an half empty A330 when you could fill a 757.
