US based, with HQ in Oklahoma City, primary hubs in OKC, PHX, LGB, and PDX. International destinations from PDX, SFO. Codeshare with second airline to provide European and East Coast service.

Fleet would be 737MAX for shorthaul, 787 for med/int'l, 777 for international, and Embraer for regional.

I would be based in Toronto, and my airline would fly GE-powered airplanes, since it doesn't matter to me whether I'm flying Boeing, Airbus, McDonnell-Douglas, or even Russian jets.

I actually plan to do this in the future, this is what i'm hoping my career will be. I'll probably be flying from SAT with initially some 737NGs (Since they will be used at the time)

Airbus mainenance is higher then a Boeing. Unlike in this game. And Composite rudders don't fly off of Boeings either. 737s rock the world. Mc Donald Douglas is the king in the real world. MD 80s to 90s are awesome.

Anyone think somebody could break into the Airlines flying from New York, Miami, Chicago and LA with 3 long range Embraers or 737s. Which meet at Chicago every day....

Id like to fly one plane back and forth on some packed like sardines route. in the US. LA to New York maybe. Or pull a Herb Kekelik Southwest gig. And fly all 737s eveywhere the majors don't fly. And compete with Greyhound bus service. Instead of the airlkines.

Well, my plan is that it will be based in the Philippines, its name is Orient Air, and when it's stable, then I will be acquiring Philippine Airlines that is struggling at the moment, and Orient Air will be renamed as Philippine Airlines.

 

Yes, the service of PAL will change. 4 Course Meals in Economy,5  Course in Premium Economy, and 7 Course Meals in Business . I will put a state of the art IFE System that has Live TV, Audio and Video on Demand, Radio and TV Channels,Games, Airshows, and much more, did you even know that even for Y that you could preorder meals that is served inflight , and yes, the meals are free. Like Bangkok Airlines, you will get to have lounge access for all classes. Seats will be better , with a 3-3-3 ,2-3-2,or 2-4-2 Configuration for wide bodies in economy , and a 2-2-2 herringbone pattern will be set for Premium economy, and 1-2-1, or 1-2-2 for business.

I'd start an airline called NopeNotFlyinair. Every single flight will get cancelled. Our slogan will be, 'Still better service than Ryanair'.

If I will start an airline. . .

 

I will start as a small short haul regional carrier in the Philippines and it will be called as Asiatic Airlines. The first thing I would do is to have at least 2 leased ATR-42-600s and will have Mactan Cebu International Airport as its HQ. The first destinations will be:

 

CEB - BCD (Bacolod)

CEB - MBT (Masbate)

CEB - TAC (Tacloban)

CEB - MPH (Aklan, Boracay)

CEB - OMC (Ormoc)

 

The airline will also serve charter flights and cargo. 

 

After 10 years of sustainability and profitability...

 

The airline will start buying the leased aircraft and order 4 Airbus A319 and add more destinations. Start the MNL hub project. 

 

CEB - MNL 

CEB - DVO

CEB - ZAM

CEB - ILO

CEB - LAO

 

Advertise, advertise, advertise! Spend more on advertising your airline in Local Magazines and Newspapers. Stay as premium airline and beat low-costs airline with our high quality service. 

 

After 5 years of sustainability and profitability...

 

We will order 5 more A319 to serve Manila Flights and our first 2 A330 aircraft that will serve international flights to Hong Kong and Tokyo from Manila and Cebu.

 

MNL - HKG

CEB - HKG

MNL - HND

CEB - HND

MNL - to all destinations

 

After 5 years of sustainability and profitability...

 

Start establishing the airlines own terminal building at Mactan Cebu and start higher class service project. The airline will sell ATR aircraft to smaller airlines. The airline will order its first Boeing 777 and will add flights to Los Angeles, USA now with a business class seats. 

 

CEB - LAX

MNL - LAX
