If anyone's at a loose end next week there's a 48-seat A319
corporate jet
flying Sydney to Lisbon next week, for an 'up to 75% off' price of
EUR110,000.

I'm guessing that's the fuel and crew cost.

so a full price of close to half a million

Actually the list price for that flight is EUR 876,550 and it's an
"empty leg". So someone else must have hired it one-way the opposite
direction.

oh for the whole plane load

I thought you were quoting a per seat price (like the one that started
this thread)

Seriously? You think it costs twenty million to hire a plane for a day!

They cost "only" $90m new.

Probably a lot less than that in reality: nobody pays the list price
for planes.

I thought most were leased.

Many are, but in which case the leasing company (quite possibly based
in Ireland) paid much less than the list price.


On what basis, that they ordered a bunch of them from the manufacturer?
