Rabble said:I was wondering if any corporatations have started reducing nonessential flying or cutting back on flying/parking aircraft as a result of the slowing economy and the dramatic increase in fuel prices.
I think we're starting to see this happen in some flight departments.
Gas will have to get A LOT more expensive to reach that point for us.Rabble said:At some point the cost of flying the aircraft will exceed the value produced or the value of the passenger's time.
If any of you guys want a copy of an MS Excel file that I use to determine the viability of tankering fuel just send me a PM.Gulfstream 200 said:Shop for fuel deals like a fiend, tanker when possible...you bet...
I would say this is the case for most large corporations... When you work for a $30+ Billion company with a $20M flight department budget, if the budget goes to $21M or $22M due to rising fuel costs, they aren't going to change the way they operate, not when on some of these flights they are signing contracts for $100M, $200M or even $500M... They aren't going to risk missing these meetings while waiting in line for the TSA to inspect their shoes...Rabble said:ok, well I have to admit i'm jealous. Apparently you guys work for companies that are able to absorb 50% increases in the price of fuel over the last year without fear for your jobs.
That's impressive.
