Domestic demand modifier

I propose an additional 'modifier' that will increase the demand domestically within either a state, country or region. This would be needed in places like Hawaii and New Zealand, where the demand is much too low on shorter flights. New Zealand, Australia and Hawaii all need considerably more domestic demand, which is unavailable in the game. New Zealand in particular could probably be safely increased by 150%.

We have the option for states already in AE, so perhaps some states and/or nations could be given a "highland & island" modifier, where required. That way, without making LHR-MAN even more popular, domestic Scottish / NZ / Carribbean routes would be able to operate to more realistic schedules.

If the game's countries are split into states & provinces, a modifier to increase demand within the states would be greatly appreciated on my part!

This is also important for California routes. For example, Southwest flies (and fills!) 15-20 73Gs daily each way from Oakland to each of the major Southern California airports (BUR/LAX/SAN/SNA/ONT)... and they do the same at San Jose, Sacramento and to a lesser extent San Francisco. There is *serious* intra-regional flying in California.
What proportion of those are O&D vs connecting pax?

I would expect a reasonable amount. California doesn't really have any other long distance public transport does it..?What proportion of those are O&D vs connecting pax?
Also useful would be a 'class demand' modifier. This could increase the business demand at certain airports, such as LHR, or change it to mostly economy, in places like STN.
