what is the crew / aircraft ratio in your company, be it short haul or long haul, pax or freight ?
Is 5 to 1 for a shorthaul short sector operation adequate ?

We use 6 crews per aircraft. They were using 5.2/AC and that was not enough. Utilization is about 14.4 hours/day at B6

that's quite a split with only 5 replies !
BMI at 4.5 to 1 to Roadtrip's mob with 6 to 6.5 to 1. That's almost 50% more ! Do you get 50% more work out of the jets ?
