Passenger numbers - a tweak or two needed imo - Lexandro - 01-02-2016
Just a quick post to say I think the way the passenger numbers for a flight are worked out need a wee tweak. It seems like its weighted to much for
ticket price rather than reputation or number of flights at a specific airport. I would prefer ticket price to be less of a factor and reputation to
be more of a factor.
Your thoughts?

Company reputation does impact the overall number of passengers for flights, however the numbers are quite broad; if you manage to get your reputation below 60%, then you will certainly see a marked difference in the number of passengers you have per flight if you keep the ticket price the same. The two do work in tandem to a degree, so if you reputation is 100%, then you can charge more for tickets and still get a full plane, just like if your reputation was 10%, you would have to charge rock-bottom prices to even have a hope of getting a full plane.

Yeah, I agree that number of PAX needs tweaking. I would like to see some random numbers. When I fly from my home airpots with the reputation of 91-92% I always get 140-145 pax waiting on a gate, regardless of destination popularity. I would like to see three options for number of PAX - low, standard and high popularity, that will randomize numbers, for example Low (50-65% of pax waiting at gate), standard (65-80%) and high (80-100%). I made a simple app to randomize number of pax for my flights, and I would like to avoid it.

How about passenger numbers being decided after destination and flight type has been entered. This would eliminate discrepancies when returning from a first time airport back to your hub.
