Thank you for the above link, and the posts from a long time ago on the trade development thread which combined with lots of trawling through flcomp have given me a much greater understanding of the luxury/passenger routes and indeed the disco economy in general.
There does appear to be one anomaly within the passenger system though..
Vacationers: With there hefty luggage they take up 2 cargo space, yet the routes are all balanced around a profit margin of approx 250c/sec as if maybe they all have special offers for luggage to travel free. Are they intentionally priced as such?
Would also love to see more variety in where they want to go, as they only seem to like Shetland & Hawaii. A lack of liking for planetary destinations.. The original infocard of Curacao claimed it be "a popular vacation hotspot for many a wealthy Liberty citizen", while Baden-Baden has always been "trying to attract bargain hunting Liberty tourists".
