Doesn't matter, the OP states that the operational cost were sub $600, even if you take fuel out of the equation that figure is low. Just in crew member wages you would be over $150, and this doesn't account for all of the crew cost. Add ion the dispatchers, ramp, gate agent, and the list goes on and on.

With that said, next time they say they can't make money because of the pilots cost, you can remind them of how we are such a small part of the pie.
