In the light recent violation warning, Amadeus group would like to file petition to review Game Rules #2
Our position is that in real world, different airlines under same ownership do fly certain route together. For example, Malaysia Air Asia (AK) and Indonesia Air Asia (QZ) both fly same route between Malaysia and Indonesia, i.e. CGK-KUL, DPS-KUL, MES-KUL, etc. You can see on their website www.airasia.com and notice different color code for sector flown on AK metal and QZ metal.
Therefore we would like to beg the AE Administration to review the Game Rules #2 and consider to allow this kind of airline group business model.
Thank you!
I suggest a different system:
1)
Maximum of ONE Airline Company per person but with wholly owned subsidiary airlines owned by that ONE Airline Company:
For Example:
Main Airline Company "US Airways"
wholly owned Subsidiary #1 "US Airways Shuttle"
wholly owned Subsidiary #2 "US Airways Express"
wholly owned Subsidiary #3 "Metro Jet"
etc
With a sub pages for each wholly owned Subsidiary:
- Home
> Airline Details
> Airline Options
> Airline Finance (with the total profit/loss showing up in the Main Airline Companies Airline Finance page under a new section: wholly owned Subsidiaries profit & loss statements)
> Airline History
> Alliance Options
- Aircraft
> Order New Aircraft **
> Buy Used Aircraft **
> Configure Cabin Layout
> Configure In-Flight Services
> View Pending Deliveries
> View Order Books
> Browse Aircraft
- Routes
> Open New Route
> My Route Map (with the Subsidiary routes showing up as a different color and served airports a different shape as shown in the following photo att the bottom of this post)
> My Alliance Map
> (new)
- Gates
> Browse Airports
> Return Gates
> Manage Hubs
> Manage Terminals
with the ability to move aircraft between the wholly owned Subsidiaries and/or the parent Airline Company
** The aircraft orders would be shared with the Main Airline Company, when the aircraft ordered for the wholly owned Subsidiary airline arrives it would be placed
with the wholly owned Subsidiary airline
