I don't use the marketing tab as off now because I don't really understand what it does.

Can anyone tell me what the advantage of marketing is?

Thanks :afro:

It increases your rep.... which is pretty much pointless... unless you're trying to show off. :whistling:

Route rep affects your route success, ie how many more seats you can gain from your competition on the route. I don't know how marketing comes in though.

However marketing increases overall rep. Although this may have some effect on routes, (I assume) individual route rep remains the most important factor to get the advantages of greater rep, therefore the costs of marketing are not worth it.

Probably will happen as some people are ninja'ing this open world principle but I'm playing it for fun and to build a nice airline don't worry about it that much.. (please do not take this as an invite ) :angry:

How nice would it be to have an "ambassador" under the human resources tab. he can visit other airlines carrying a nice big envelope to encourage them to find other routes :whistling:

300M ????? WOW that's crazy.. Spending 300M requires 300M extra profit to break even without even making more profit.. Guess I'll stick with the employee parties :partyhat:
