What plane?
Any marketing wiz out there? I am working on a fleet selection project and I am trying to find out what the DOC of 737s, A320s, DC9s, F100s etc. (100-150 pax airplane) are...
Plus, what factors determine the Direct Operating Cost (DOC)? :confused: |
what airline are you working for ?
cheers. |
No airline, I fly corporate. I am doing this for my university class. I recommend taking classes in "Airline Management" or similar.

Thanks Zeke! :D

Zeke,
I'm impressed with the accuracy of your info. I added up the everything, at least costwise, and it came to 100%. This leaves a profit margin of 0%- which seems pretty true to form for a lot of carriers. ;) ;) :D |
Zeke,
I suspect the validity of your numbers. How can the B-767-300 have a direct operating cost that is only 67% of the A-300-600 when they operate the same GE CF-6 engine, at nearly the same max wt, with the Airbus having (per your example) 25 more seats? EBD |
EX Bus Driver, I suspect it has something to do with using some aircraft as freighters.
For example, look at the differences for the B727-200 and B727-F. The DOC is substantially higher for the freighter (because freighters burn more full per mile given their payloads). I think the data is an industry average for each type, and you'll notice that the DOC seems noticeably higher for those types where a fairly large percentage of the total airframes (in service) are used for freight, including the A300-600. I know the chart says (for passenger models only) but I don't really think that's true for all types in the chart. Just for fun, look at the difference in the DOC for the A300-600 and the B777, WOW!
