How to know when you have connecting flight passengers

English Boards General

Hi I am in DAL and I have a lot of connecting flights from my airline as well as some alliance connections as well. How do you know that your flight has connecting passengers on it. Also when you do have people connecting from other airlines will it count as a passenger load before the flight or no. Thanks

Please don’t provide incorrect information to players. You were told that yesterday.

Op: to see if your flights have any inbound or outbound connecting passengers booked, go to flight details of a particular flight, either finished, inflight or booked. There you will see passengers transferring from internal and external feeder, those are inbound connecting passengers who connect from a different flight into your flight. You will also see transferring passengers to internal and external connections, those are outbound passengers who will connect from your flight to a different flight a once that flight reaches its destination. Internal transfers mean your own flights, external transfers mean flights of your interlining partners.

The same goes on for cargo.

You can see individual flight by

  1. Going to flight numbers and selecting a flight number there, followed by a particular day

  2. Going to flights list of an individual aircraft and selecting an individual flight number there

  3. Going to scheduling, inventory or market analysis and selecting an individual flight number there

But I can't watch that. Look:

You can clearly see that you have 23 passengers connecting to an IL partner. And 0 passengers for all the other cases.

In case feliseaone does not see it, I have marked where the connecting passengers to/from the flight are displayed in this particular case.

Note: Passengers from all service classes (Y, C, F) are grouped together, there is no separation of them on the connection statistics.

Thank you guys for helping me

Thank you so much. No doubts. I'm a stupid guy.

hey thanks for that rubiohiguey2000 I had the same problem where I could not see it and I came to the forums to find help.

but also I spent a lot of time on making a schedule with a hub system for connections between international and domestic flights with dozens of connections and I haven't had a single connecting passanger. I don't know what is wrong, I have internal network switched on.

If your flights are full, there may not be a space for connecting passengers on your fully booked flights.

Or your connection times are long or your connection ratings are bad and you don't get connecting passengers.

Also connections will happen if A-HUB-B is less than 2.5 x distance of A-B direct routing (e.g. A-B is 1000 km so A-HUB-B must not exceed 2500 km).

You can check some of the connections you have in ORS, e.g. by running A-B in ORS and see if/where your connections come up.

If your connections are located to far down the line (e.g. page 5, 10, 20, etc.) you may not be getting connecting passengers because of your overall bad rating, in such case improve seats, service, image, or lower price on individual legs (to bump up individual connection ratings - though price will most likely only have limited effect on connections).

A little advice! You should charge more for eco class :)

Hi! just one more question. Is it possible to know in which flight the connecting pax are going (or came from)?

I can imagine watching the flights connected with mine, but some times there are a lot…

At the moment there is no way of knowing

You can see were they are most likely to come from but not exact were.

That is basically possible if you have just a few connections. With many connections arriving at roughly the same time from all over, this is virtually impossible to know even approximately.

True that but in the beginning it is quite usefull.

Hi! I have a new question about connecting pax. Every airport has its own transfer timing. But when I'm going to schedule a flight i see that many "working connections" have shorter transfer time, why? Is it an error or that connection really works?

Thanks!

If passengers are on the same aircraft, then MCT does not apply.

Otherwise I would suggest posting a screenshot so we can analyze better.
