Average Turnaround Time

Is the time required to turnaround a plane between two flights? In the Itinerary, in Sales, we apply the Turnaround Time automatically between two flights.

It is composed of two values:

     1. Airport Turnaround Time. Typically it is longer in large airports, while small airports allow for quick turnarounds. To adjust the Average Turnaround Time for any specific location, go to Airport/ Timing/ Avg. Turnaround Time. On the same location, you can also adjust the Average Taxi Times 

    2. Aircraft Turnaround Time. Typically it is longer for large aircraft, while small aircraft allow for quick turnarounds. To adjust the Aircraft Turnaround time, go to Aircraft / Operational / Base

These two values are added up to get the total Turnaround Time of an aircraft in a certain airport.

Airport

Aircraft

The Turnaround Time is based on the default you input in Aircraft and Airport settings. In the example above, Airport turnaround = 10min and Aircraft turnaround = 20min, so it would take a total turnaround time = 30min before the next flight.
