Can someone please explain, if the measure is "passenger kilometres per litre of fuel" how does freight factor into this?
Separately.
Oops, guess not. Maybe on some equivalent weight basis?
Not sure what ElliS Taylor is on about either should be CASM or even the basics ASK etc.
I am quite sure they count freight as 0 passenger...
I don't care what some shrill bony finger wagging ninny says about fuel efficiency. The 747 is a comfortable plane to fly. I never worry about using fuel. They will make more.
