I am in...
Public World #506, Private Worlds #271, 546. I am also in PW #166, #204, but kinda gave up after renewing my fleet would became unmanageable. Replacing hundreds of 737s is a daunting task.
Saving up to purchase 767-200ER to start European routes. As airline makes more money will continue to purchase longhual a/c and eventually fly to major Asian, European, South American destinations.
Also looking at purchasing up to 3 B717s to replace some of the leased 717s to decrease the airline's leasing costs.

I want to get some E70 but don't know if I should lease or not. Also, trying to understand when money is deposited into the account. But I've only been on for about 2 hours so oh well..

Quoting ERJ170 (Reply 8): Is it best to lease or buy?
At first I find its best to lease, just make full use of the leased a/c and make sure its making more money per day then your paying in lease costs.
Also think big don't lease aircraft with only a small amount of seats. I find its best to lease aircraft with around 100 + seats, mainly because the more seats the more money you make. Also 100 seats isn't too many seats when your flying routes that have a lot of other airlines and competition.
Quoting ERJ170 (Reply 8): Best way to get some good money?
The key is to continually grow and open as many routes and lease as many planes that you can afford. Because the more planes and routes you have the more money you make each day.
Once you start to earn a decent amount e.g. $3 million + a day then you should start to buy planes to replace your leased ones or continue to grow your airline.
To choose the best routes to fly, go to the rent gate page and when you choose a continent and it lists all the airports, click on 'passengers' at the top/middle of the list and that will put all the airports in order of population. Then just start a route to the airport with the highest population and work your way down. Just make sure that the aircraft you have has the range to fly it.
Quoting ERJ170 (Reply 8): Should you only have 1 frequency on flights or is multiple frequencies acceptable?
I'm not too sure about this one but I only have 1 frequency per route. Because the more frequency you have the lower the ticket price you can charge.
Also early on in the game you want to fly as many different routes as possible, so taking up 2x frequency on a particular route normally means that its one less other route your aircraft can fly.
You also want to diversify the routes a aircraft flies on in case certain routes have a lot of competition. That way if one route doesn't make much money theres still normally 3 or 4 others that keep the aircraft profitable.

I have a question.. not trying to start any kind of war in this forum..
but does it seem that Airline Mogul is very Airbus friendly? They Airbus in the game seem about 20-30% cheaper than the Boeing.. and I thought they were all about the same price.. Just seems that they game is forcing players to get Airbus and work much harder to get Boeing (and considering everything is in Euros, I can understand).
Just wondering.. I am having to save a lot just to get a Boeing that has the same seats as it's Airbus counterpart, but is about 20,000,000 Euros more expensive!
