When they don’t fill their seats, they lose money. The cost of fuel/running the plane would be more than the revenue from the tickets sold.

it depends on the distance. the bigger the plane is and the more fuel they will cost in a short distance.

Running on bigger planes will result in higher costs. In addition, there could be a waste of resource (e.g:not enough passengers)

Because it depends on the duration of the trips. For longer trips, this plane will be beneficial because costumers are willing to pay more

Having bigger planes means it is harder to fill up all the seats = greater probability of being inefficient.

Larger planes requires higher fuel and maintanence costs, and if the demand is not enough, the profit margin for airlines is too low.

Higher variables costs: gasoline, maintenance, service
More flights by small airplanes are cheaper than one flight with a bigger airplane -

-A big heavy airplane consumes more fuel raising expenditures of it

It requires more resources, which increases the flying cost and the flight ticket sell might not be able to cover that cost.
