seats on a 747.

If 1000 people want to go from JFK to ORD on Thursday, they'll fill
two 747s or ten 737s. The main difference is in how much fuel is
wasted and how great an impact on the environment is created.


You are an idiot.

If there were 1000 people that wanted to fly JFK to ORD at the same time
every day, every other day or even once a week there would be some
airline that would schedule the flights with 2 747's. There aren't so
there isn't. The airlines have found that the customers want flights
scheduled throughout the day at different times to match with their
individual schedules.

If frogs had a BRS, they wouldn't bumb their ass so hard when they land.

If you had a clue, you wouldn't have made this post.

That was exactly the case in the past.

So why not have Citations leaving every ten minutes with five passengers each?
How can people complain about the effect of aviation on the environment while
accepting multiple, inefficient flights of small aircraft instead of a lesser
number of efficient flights of large aircraft? Where does one draw the line?
Is it any surprise that airspace is crowded?

Except for the minor detail that a 777 is significantly greener then a 747
and will output less greenhouse gas per passenger mile so running more of
them benefits the environment as well as the needs of the passengers.

If there was only one carrier in the world you would probably see just
exactly what you want. One big ass plane flying from A to B as few times
per period as possible. Fortunately we don't have a monopoly on flight
in this country so one of the variable that comes up in the equation is
when do the passengers want to fly. Some want to leave at 0700 some at
0900 some at 1300 some at 1700 some at 2000.

There are people willing to pay the extra cost to have a Citation take
them some where when they want to go.

Because, thank God, the environment isn't the only thing that drives the
economy.

Where does one draw the line?

At some economically viable point. The airlines are having a hard time
finding it so you probably won't get the right answer here.

No it isn't. A lot of people need to go places.

Why would anyone want to fly as SLF in a
a 747? *First class is nice, but coach just
plain sucks. *I've flown to Tokyo and London
in one and it was the least tolerable jetliner
I've ever flown in.

I agree.
Last weekend from Houston to Amsterdam in a 747 (8 hours +), that
hurts.
The seating in my C150 is less cramped than in that thing.(And the
onboard food is better too)
