How quick are aircraft refueled and more importantly, cleaned before the next flight.
Just checking a relative’s scheduled flight from Bali to Dubai and see the same aircraft is en route from NZ to Bali. It suggests less than 2 hours to fully prepare the aircraft for the journey to Dubai after landing at Bali.
That seems a bit quick to do everything that’s needed, mainly cleaning the aircraft.
I think they do, but we are talking 1h, 2h flights, so I do not think a 2h cleaning break is either necessary or economically viable. After a 8h flight where people get served several meals, it is a different story.
With regards to the other things, so far they have limited themselves to selling scratchcards for children’s charities and having short legs is a great advantage, too
On larger aircraft fueling alone could take 45 minutes to an hour. Of course this is overlapped with other services such as cleaning, boarding, baggage etc.
