Much more operation costs come with bigger planes which would lower the profit. Inefficiency of possibility of having empty trips also occur

Realistically, airlines understand that customers will buy airline tickets regardless of “leg room”. (Inelastic demand) @cabahugj @shannipeng @shiyunliusharon

Bigger planes require more fuel (and at point can’t fly) = higher ticket prices = fewer ticket sales. and each empty seat costs more for AL

Bigger planes = more costly (especially for fuel). Sometimes the costs aren’t worth it – ex. for short flights people may not care as much

Bigger planes have higher upkeep costs. Furthermore, ff they are not filled, the company is operating inefficiently and thus losing profits.

Expensive costs to run bigger planes. Bigger planes require more cargo/customers to fill to be profitable/break even.
