Would increasing the load factor for air travel reduce per passenger energy use? Explain
What will be an ideal response?
The extra weight carried by the plane makes a negligible difference in the energy
cost of the trip. The energy use per passenger is therefore just about
total trip energy cost without passengers / number of passengers.
