Which of these is an indirect operating cost?

  • A.Flight crew salaries
  • B.Advertising and reservations
  • C.Fuel
  • D.Landing fees

Answer: B

Correct answer: Advertising and reservations

Advertising and reservations are indirect operating costs: they support the airline as a business but are not attributable to flying any particular aircraft on any particular sector.

The other three are direct - flight crew salaries, fuel and landing fees all arise from operating the aircraft itself. The line between the two matters when comparing aircraft types, since only direct costs distinguish one aeroplane from another; indirect costs reflect how the airline is run.
