Lease rate and maintenance cost: estimates for ownership and upkeep
If you do not enter your own rates, the calculator uses estimates from weight and seat count. These are parametric, not operator data: each one can be replaced in the calculation.
| Lease, EUR per month | 123,439 |
| Utilisation, flight hours per month | 300 |
| Ownership per flight hour (lease ÷ hours), EUR | 411 |
| Maintenance, EUR per flight hour | 569 |
| Maintenance, EUR per cycle | 548 |
| Crew, EUR per flight hour | 492 |
| Crew, EUR per cycle | 183 |
Maintenance by year — US carriers' reports (Form 41)
Maintenance cost per block hour as reported by US carriers flying this type: direct (labour, materials, outside services) and full — with the maintenance department's overheads. Dollars of each year, not restated. 2020 stands above its neighbours: flying dropped, the fixed part of the cost stayed.
2025: direct USD 1,002, with overheads USD 1,245 per block hour, 2 carriers
