A an aside, Captain Joe of YT fame recently did a great video explaining how CI works.

 

Cost Index is entirely decided by the dispatcher but PIC has final word for a change. For the flight I dispatch it can range from 20 - 200 but I'd say 80 is the "base"

Two scenarios you can use from these lists of average CI for a sim flight:   I'll use CI 20 as example.

  • IF Connection pax may be delayed/Need to make-up flight time = higher cost index (Say 80 or 120)
  • IF Need to use as little fuel as possible to take more payload/NO weather abnormalities/obstructions that will impact flight time (IE Jet streams, Fronts..)= lower cost index (Say 20)

CI is a big part of the flight planning procedure and impacts the route greatly, and there are many variables to plan the correct one and get the most from a flight. But again, ultimately, it's up to the PIC.

Scoot use CI 20 in the A320 and the 787 ranges between 50 to 110

Vietnam Airlines use CI 65 in the 787s and 40 in the A321s
