Price increase improving ORS

Hello everybody!

A rather weird one which certainly is not causing an issue, but I would be interested to know if there is a reason for this.

I have a brand new airline “Explorer USA” on Xiguan although I consider myself reasonably experienced at the game itself.

As I had 100% PAX loads after week 1 I increased my pricing by 5%, and suprisingly I noticed the ORS for the individual flight increased from 47 to 51 rather than decreased as I would expect. This did not impact the entire journey rating which remained at 98.

Am I misreading this? I would expect a price increase with no other changes whatsoever to decrease ORS. An example of this is comparing EXE 27 between EWR and ALB on 3rd (old pricing) and 4th October (new pricing). The flight rating tab does show everything the same between the 2 days except price, which decreased in from 4 bars to 3 bars with the higher price (despite the end result being a higher ORS score somehow)

Any thoughts welcome

Chris

Overall airline image changes affecting your ORS ranking?

I guess its possible, I wouldnt have thought my image would have increased that much in under a week of trading but I cant see what else it would be. Would have been interesting to see but the rating for the old flights is not available any more. Thanks for the thought though, def could be that
