Some of the most profitable flying Delta does - I've been told that 2 of the top 5 profitable destinations are in Africa... and we only fly to a few places there. Shows how profitable it is - cuts the Europe stop out on a USA-Africa route.

It may be very profitable, but in the grand scheme of the overall profit...its not much.

....and, from a pilot's perspective (after several years of flying there), it sucks. I think one of the reasons its profitable for us is not many other major carriers want to take it on. We're still waiting for things to simmer down in Kenya for example before we start up that service.

Sit down to MSFS in a dark room, turn on a couple vaccum cleaners in the closet. For the last 2 hours shine a bright flashlight in your face. Apply newspaper as necessary.
