I don't get the game. So I have to just wait and wait for the money to pile in? So I could expand? And for the flights of my jet, does it fly real time? Or just bam it flew and bam it flew again?
Im confused.
Aeroflot can fly Moscow to LA, I bet your airline can only fly half way

Yeah,
Things are really expensive. There should be a place to take out a loan.
In World 8 My airline is Helmboldt Air based at DTW.
I have 1 EMB 110 and 2 daily flights from DTW to MIA with 100% load factors, apparently thats where I'll be for the next 12 years

Quick question here...why do you fly to STC? I live about an hour away, and it just seems like an odd destination compared to your others. MSP gates all taken or something?
The answer is very simple: at MSP gates are really more expensive than at STC. STC has not so bad passenger rate and gates are cheap there!
Quoting YLWbased (Reply 15): i just don't find it attractive to join big alliances. it produce no interest to my airline
Oh, really? Where can I check the requirements and etc.?
And one more thing. I'm your competitor, but can you help me a bit:
My hub is at ATL, but now I have reached the maximal routes number for one gate and there are no free gates at ATL and minimum build cost of terminal is over 40,000,000$! Should I:
Wait for free gates at ATL
or
Waste so much money for this terminal
or
Rent 4 gates at another airport and create a "focus city"
Thank you very much if you would help me. Thank you! Thank you!
Everything is flexible if you know how to bend it.

Wait for free gates at ATL: they do show up time to time. you might be able to grab 2-3 gates in a few days.
Waste so much money for this terminal: no point
Rent 4 gates at another airport and create a "focus city": an option too, just don't forget you hv to pay 6mil on top of the 4 gates domesticly, and someone more for overseas base.
Hong Kong is not China. Not better or worse, just different.

41 DYflyer: I had the same problem. Seems my problem was that their system doesn't work well with email-addresses witch ends with four letters (***@*******.info)
42 NZ107: What happens at the reset every 10 years or so?
43 AcroAirFun: Two more questions: 1. Is it possible to declare a bankruptcy? 2. Could aircraft crash or have a failure?
44 REA18S: Glad to see new people joining Airline Mogul. There are no game resets. Just game ends. When a World reaches the end of its timespan it pauses. Thats

65 NZ107: DFW so far, he's looking to expand in the Middle East sometime lol
66 NZ107: Also: What does the "maximum alliance flights" mean? 25 max out of everyone or 25 max per city or 25 max per user?
67 Larshjort: As I understand the game manual it's 25 flights per alliance airport. So if I use the 25 alliance at LOS nobody else in the alliance except the owner
68 JohnKrist: Correct, it's 25 slots per user hub to be shared within the alliance. Some easy rules that we have had in USG that helps everyone are as follows: Max
