Passenger cabin ratio?

[Orbitalai]

I only do small jumps (less than 30 LY). I never accommodate passengers wishes. I fly a Saud Kruger ship.

Which ratio (economy, business, first, luxery) should I put in cabins to maximize profit?

These slots is what I have available:

3 of class 6
2 of class 5
2 of class 3

Suggestions welcome

I put the more expensive seating in the larger slots.
Luxury cabins don't seem to pay off too well however, so I'd go one first and two business in the c6s, or perhaps vice versa, and more business class cabins in the c5s, and economy in the c3s.

The highest class are better off economy. Down to class 5 you lose half the number of seats going to business. Class 5 is the smallest luxury, so unless you want to hedge for a larger luxury party with a class 6 liable to be mostly empty, that should be your luxury cabin. At class 4 and below you lose less than half going to business, so you might as well do business class with them.

TBH you're better off using one or two cabins with one luxury and one business and just hauling goods with the rest: the chances you'll fill all cabins is nonexistent and if you can fit 6 people in business class berths you have most of the missions to one location covered, and the chances you find a case here a different loadout would be more profitable so rare it isn't worth keeping a stack of cargo and passenger cabins in each station you frequent a waste of time, effort and money.
