shocked However, I am surprised Emirates and Etihad Airlines didn't make this list.
this list is by fleet size and enger traffic.
I'm sure if you do by quality of services offered those airlines alongside Qatar and Singapore airlines would top the list

Fool! Illiterate talking about paygrade.

A commercial airline with 154 planes can never carry less engers than one with 29 planes. It goes against all business logic. Why would a business run 154 planes with all its associated costs to carry the same number of engers as one that only has to run 29 planes.

If it so happens that this was ever the case, the airline cannot be said to be a going concern and it would be best to wind up. This is just logic.

Its like you morons dont like to read or be educated. Africa False Zone is just an illiterate like yourself on Twitter with a cheap phone and data that just pulls numbers out of thin air and posts for imbeciles like you to swallow and regurgitate for your comrades in stupidity.

Despite the number of posts telling you it is false info with links to back this up you are still foaming in the mouth about some hypothetical A380 v A330 scenario

Go to hell!

A commercial airline has 154 airframes,however only 4 is dedicated to African Market another has 29 airframes and 20 is dedicated to the African market who would have the biggest number of engers within Africa?

Going by your analogy then Delta should be the first in the African market since the have a bigger fleet than EA,so im asking you why is Delta airlines not the first in the African market since it has over 1000 planes and EA has a mere 154?

Did u know that the well renowned Emirates airlines made their first profit after tax in a decade just last year,of course you wouldnt know this since its not cheap banters that has fully occupied every space in your cranium.

Despite the loses,have you bothered to ask Emirates airlines why didnt u carry your smelly mouth to advice Emirates to just wind up?

The Jumbo vs Neo analysis is just to let you know that there are other parameters that matter even in fleet size,you are more interested in banters then knowledge which means you need quick upgrade of your intelligence quotient capacity,bro its an emergency.....you need it urgently.....i no get strength to dey tie person with rope oo.

You are irredeemable. You could be a check in staff, a baggage handler or even a station manager. That doesnt mean you'd have a clue about the numbers.

Lets use your ill thought out assumptions.

Ethiopian 154 planes x 100 engers daily (on 1 jumbo to the s ame destination) = 15,400 engers

Air Peace 29 planes x 300 engers daily (on 1 jumbo used 3 times to the same destination) = 8,700 engers

How is it possible that Air Peace will ever be able to carry more engers that Ethiopian? Air Peace would have to use one plane to carry 500 engers daily to do the numbers Ethiopian is doing with one plane and 100 engers daily.

If it is possible for Air Peace to do those kind of numbers, then competitors like Ethiopian wont just sit down and look, they will copy Air Peace.

Do you f**king get it now?!

Dont be a joke,i could be whatever suits your fancy however one thing that im not is as uninformed as you when it comes to Aviation

Lets use your warped assumptions

Delta has 1000 airplanes x100 engers daily (on 1 jumbo to the same destination) = 100000 engers.

Ethiopian 154 planes x 100 engers daily (on 1 jumbo to the same destination) = 15,400 engers

Ask yourself the question how come Delta airline is not in the list then since they have a bigger fleet than EA

If u still dont get it,then na only God fit help your situation.

How it is possible is due to the frequency of the airlines booking on the said route,this isnt affected by size of fleet but other parameters like safety/price etc.....

Is it possible you were deep in some part of hades when news broke out that other competitors slashed airfare prices for the LHR route?

Do u freaking understand now or u need some more elementary explanation that your intelligence quotient can carry?

You cant wrap your head around it because u dont work in aviation,firstly the data is about the African market only,which means it only applies to flights within Africa so doesnt cover all destinations,they might have bigger size of fleet however have you bothered to ask what is the frequency of their flights within Africa,for example if AP has 3 flights to JHB daily while EA has one,then AP has more engers,EA wont fly to JHB empty just because they have a bigger fleet,they fly based on frequency of bookings,size of fleet doesnt determine the frequency of bookings.

Somehow im not assuming anything,im not holding brief for AP however the data is very possible,they would have more fleet dedicated to more busier routes,thats basic common sense,perhaps the busier routes for AP are middle east and europe so that is where most of the fleet would be dedicated to.

Meanwhile my analogy was just an example to let you know fleet size isnt the only parameter to consider,i dont need to research on that cos i work im aviation,so i know better,you are only getting worked up due to fleet size without confirming the types of airframes involved in the fleet,i guess now you have a better idea that fleet size alone cant be a determinant factor without considering the type of airframe.

Just to clarify i already knew both dont have a jumbo,the analogy is for you to have an idea of airframes,the realistic answer to that is frequency of booking,if AP with one jumbo goes to a destination daily while EA goes to the same destination once in 3 days,then AP wins despite having a smaller fleet,EA wont fly empty airframes just for display of a bigger fleet,they fly based on booking frequency.
Lol... You're actually a funny individual for confidently perpetuating such an illogical argument despite what everyone has told you.

By the way, I'm a well educated adult with a sound mind and also with the gift of discernment. I don't have to work in the aviation industry to understand basic number; this is common sense!

I'm wondering where you got your idea from that the OP was referring to only engers carried within Africa; but let's even assume its within Africa like you claim. The EA fleet operating within Africa far outnumbers the entire AP fleet; EA travels to over 20 cities within Ethiopia and over 60 cities in Africa. How many destinations does AP fly to?

You keep repeating this argument about AP flying to a destination 3 times a day but EA flying to same destination once in 3 days; where on earth are you digging up these imaginary numbers from? EA has been in existence for almost 80 years and is the largest and most profitable airline in Africa, but somehow you think the management of EA are idiots that they don't know how to maximally utilise their planes? Are you saying EA doesn't know how to manage an airline business? They're not getting frequent bookings but somehow they keep buying more and more planes, expanding their fleet even with more wide-body aircrafts and they're not getting bookings?? Buying more and more planes to fly empty? What kind of voodoo economics is that? Is this what you've learnt from your time working in the aviation industry?

Just like @pappilo pointed out to you, even if AP converts all its 29 planes to 777's carrying up to 300 engers per plane, AP wouldn't still match the capacity of EA. Abeg try using common sense sometimes; cos you keep making your so called time in the aviation industry questionable.

...
You seem to dig out weird numbers from your imagination, believe the numbers, build your arguments on these imaginary numbers, and then them across as facts. How did you arrive at the conclusion that only 4 out of 154 EA planes are dedicated to Africa? A quick check to EA's website reveals the run to over 20 local destinations (in-country) and over 60 destinations in Africa. How did you come to the conclusion that only 4 planes are used for these over 80 destinations?

Make i put school bag for your back carry you go primary school for you to understand what for example means??

Its just an instance to let you understand that u cant base size of engers on size of fleet alone since u dont seem very bright in this field.

For example if Dana air has the highest number of engers for local destinations, will u bring up same argument of impossibility since they have a lower fleet size than AP.

Airlines base routes on foot traffic and viability of the destination,fleet size isnt the only parameter.

what is the population of Ethiopia compared to Nigeria head to head.

Have u checked the frequency of flights for each of the destinations?

You might have never heard of Ryanair but i guess u must have heard of Emirates,why are you not arguing that Ryanair cant have more engers than a whole Emirate, Ryan air might not have more destinations than Emirates.

- If my grandma had 2 wheels, she would have been a motorcycle.
- If my dad had wings, he would have been a boeing 747.

Both of the above sentences are instances, but one thing common to them is that they are both meaningless and unrealistic instances. You dont need nursery education to discern that.

Thd point being made here is you should stop making unrealistic instances in arguments. You cant keep assuming that EA planes are idle and rotting away on the tarmac while AP planes are being utilised to 150% capacity; where're you digging up these pointless instances from?

If EA management was stupid enough to just amass 154 planes that are idle (as you keep suggesting in your instances), then EA would have since folded up cos airline businesses thrive on aircraft utilisation.

If the airline is reporting profits and expanding its fleet, shouldnt common sense tell you they're getting bookings? Had it been that AP had like over 100 planes while EA had 154, perhaps your assumptions and argument would have been reasonable. Do you know how terribly bad business has to be for EA with 154 planes to have less overall enger headcount than an airline with 29 planes?

Meanwhile talking of Ryanair, are you aware Ryansir has over 580 active planes compared to Emirates eith about 260?... Ryanair is also a low cost airline that almost operates what I'd call a 'molue' service; they thrive on short routes and maximise number of seats in their planes. Looking at the numbers, common sense can easily tell you and I that Ryanair would have more enger turnover than emirates.

If I may ask, on what evidence is your argument even based? Just assumptions? Or is it the obviously fictitious and severally debunked figures posted by the OP?

envious and jealous of people poverty chased from there cursed region to Lagos and Sw to slave for their Yoruba masters😂what does a ibo man has that Yoruba needs to be jealous of? Nwane Sw is still the economic hub and the most developed part of Nigeria and check the migration trend incase you missed it….east to west and it has always been like that since the days of your ancestors and your generation is also following in the foot step as descendant of slave migrant😂 don’t sit back home and develop your cursed region. And beside when your ancestors where still living with animals in the jungle, Yorubas were already living in civilise setting which represent the brown roofs, and it part of our story and heritage, just has we have modern structures in other part of Ibadan,and non of your 5 plot of land can ever come close, and that why you don’t have a cosmopolitan city in your cursed region grin
