Business Seat in "Eco only direct demand"
« on: October 15, 2018, 02:39:15 am »
Is it possible to grow business demand where the direct demand is only for the economy class only?
for example :
Jakarta-Surabaya has direct demand of 324 economy pax. i already fill 100% demand with economy class but the revenue is only  a decent one. i know i can increase the ticket price to increase it but i think setting a new business class will be more profitable in the long run.

Yes, it is possible to find business travelers even where the direct demand reports few or none, BUT, it really really depends on the route. Business demand is very small to cities that aren't large / rich / appropriately charmed.

i've tried creating a business seat in 4 of my routes and it's quite good. i believe the business class plays a part in increasing my revenue even though i also raise the ticket price.
