Apologies if this is in the wrong thread but I was just wondering how much an aircraft turn around actually costs?
With airlines trying to safe money left right and centre it greatly affects the wages ground handlers can offer

I was wondering if anyone knows how much a turn around actually costs from a passenger checking in to boarding and departure?
Obviously aircraft size comes into consideration, but if you look a ATR72/Q400 what costs does the airline incur from landing to dept

Only way we make any form of decent profit is to pray for a bad winter. De-Ice means ££££.
With penalties etc., the handler can end up paying the airline for the turn on bad days.

Think you'll find this kind of information commercially sensitive, and doubt anyone will be willing to divulge :=
