Moderators Kyle Posted March 19, 2011 Moderators Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Well, many cases for that is that... Pilots might used too much/made a mistake with the fuel captictiy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at all the PIREPS filed March, no feul errors heard of made. Did the live prices some how mess this up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm thinking of that too. Maybe a world fuel market went up crazy i guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAV1702 Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 My fuel prices have went up too in the past couple of days. BUT I also noticed too that the price of fuel right now is pricy. Every flight has had a different fuel cost. So I would say the live fuel prices are working as they should be. A good way to combat the issue is to turn off live fuel costs and manually enter in amounts to your liking. I know high fuel costs suck and the airlines in real life feel the same way. I just keep in the back of my mind that not every flight is going to be a money maker. Some are going to loose money regardless unless you jack the cost per ticket or per pound of cargo up sky high. I think in real life if you went to book a flight and they raised the ticket price by 200$ to cover fuel cost you would respectfully decline the ticket and not fly at the time or find another way.

Exactl. Kind of defeats the purpose of having live prices if you don't like the price and are going to change it to something lower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAV1702 Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 That did go up a bunch, but so did your flight numbers for the month as well. Now since the live fuel prices are back online, that is going to happen. You went from 27 flights to 44. That is quite the jump in flights. Just a tad shy of doubled.
