Because bigger planes mean more cost like maintenance fees and labour payment. Meanwhile, the risk would be higher to have some empty seats.

Bigger planes are not always cost effective and the airlines have to be aware of changes in demand for travel due to seasonal changes

They would choose smaller planes to marginalize on economies of scale. Save on fuel costs and try and cut overall costs.

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

– The bigger the plane, the harder it is to fill up consistently. Too many available seats = less chances for people to score cheap tix.

Because it waste fuels. Fuel costs money so if the plane isn’t full with customers, the expense is greater than revenue. Aka net loss

Need to meet bottom line, smaller planes can have more flights… If customers want more leg room, they can pay more, fly first class.

Bigger planes= more fuel= more expensive costs. It’s not economical to use bigger planes when there aren’t as many customers, so it would be a waste.

1.) A bigger plane = more maintenance costs
2.) decrease in profits if plane can’t be filled
3.) Offer other “comforts” instead of space -

– have to sell tickets at lower price to make sure the plane gets full -

Fuel is one of the largest costs associated with running an airline, larger planes need more fuel, this would drive up seat prices.

First, they need very experienced captains which needs more salary cost. Second, using larger plane means increase the cost.
