Multiple Airlines Are Not Allowed

You do not need to run multiple airlines for any reason.

Ya, don't operate more than one airline. That's why we require unique email addresses.

Go to and click on Routes, then click on Market Share, pick ur 2 cities and it should start u on ur way into flying on a route. U will just need to pick ur aircraft and then, put a price and see what profit u get. ;)

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. Where can I find the manual?

A. Within AirWiki. Update your bookmarks, it is at: http://www.airlineempires.net/airwiki

Q. This game looks cool. How do I sign up?

A. At this moment, sign up is open. It is not always open and please repect that. Signup page's link is available on the login page

Q. I want a gate at CDG, but there are none left.

A. Look around for someone that has a CDG gate they can trade, wait for a CDG gate to become free or build a terminal.

Q. When will miller add new airports?

A. When he finds some free time, he normaly adds new cities. Remember he has a life outside AE.

Q. I want miller to add SXB now!

A. Miller will add the airports he wants in their due time. Now if miller added all the airports we wanted when we wanted, I'd already would have a major hub in VCV. It is planned that all airports that handle more than 100,000 people per year will be included in the game.

Q. I have an MD-11 with 22 hours and the range to do ONT-NRT but when I go to crate the route, it tells me it can't.

A. There is a little check box above Continue that says round trip. Unclick that and continue.

Q. Do I have to do a return flight with a round trip?

A. No

Q: Does ticket price affect load factor?

A: Yes, ticket price affect load-factor. The lower the price, the higher the load factor. Keep in mind that flying full aircraft won't give you maximum profits.

Q: Whats the range of the J-31?

A. It is around 650 miles.

Q: How can I rename my airline?

A: At this moment you can not. The closest thing you can do is change your logo to reflect the desired name or desired presentation.

Q: I put my aircraft on the market; how can I get it back?

A: Your aircraft should be on top of the used aircraft page. Click Edit and select Delist Aircraft. If you don't see the edit link, it may be a bug.

Q. What is depreciation?

A. It is a bit hard to understand if you don't know about accounting or business. In its simplest form, depreciation is the loss in value of a object (airplane) due to its use.
To find a better account of how AE depreciation works, read this thread.

Q. I see a lot of private sales in my used aircraft page, but when I click to view one it says "You do not have access to this private sale."

A. It can be one of two things. One, that a little bug is preventing you from seeing the aircraft for sale. Ask the other airline to reoffer the aircraft to you. Make sure the correct airline id is being used. The other thing is that two airlines sharing the same IP can not sell aircraft to each other.

Q. What is a Airline ID #, and how do i figure mine out?

A. The Airline ID # is a special number that represents your airline. It is in chronological order of when you regestered. If you se yorself in the rankings, click your name and in the address bar you should see "...php?player=19" 19 is this airlines id number. Also, you can search in the 'place this aircraft for sale' page under (search)

Q. I sold a SF-340 for $2,000,000, and it is telling me that I got -$1,000,000 in my aircraft sales account.

A. Don't worry, more than likely you got your full $2,000,000. The aircraft sales account records the net profit or net loss from the aircraft you have sold. Because you sold your SF-340 under its value, it will post a loss. There is a bug where sometimes you are not correctly debited with money

Q. Is miller a guy?

A. Yes

Q. Where can I find more info on BBcode?

A. here

Q. Where did my thread go?

A. Once in a while, a thread will be placed in the wrong forum. When this happens the moderators will move the thread to its respective forum. Sometimes they will keep a link on the original forum linking to the thread. Another reason that you might not be able to see your thread is because the thread was inappropriate and was deleted.

Q. Where did my post go?

A. If it did not serve any good purpose, it was deleted. Posts to insult people or just spam posts will be deleted in order to keep the forum clean. Or your post might have been moved someplace elce.

Q. I didn't post this thread, what happened?
I never saw this thread, what happened?


A. The thread was split. If a thread topic changes, a moderator might split the thread and have it be another thread so the original thread can be.

Q. I'm having trouble. Every time I try to use bbcode in Press Releases, they don't work.

A. Try using html. Its quite the same as bbcode.

<hr> horizontal line; seperate a quote from main post

Q: Airline "X" has an aircraft up on the market for more than 200% of its value! Is he a hax0r?

A: At this moment its probably a little bug. The 50 - 200% value thing only applies at the moment an airline is selling an aircraft. If this aircraft depreciates while on the market, only the market value will change.

Q: How does bankruptcy work?

A: If you find your airline falling, or just don't like it's functioning, you can declare bankruptcy. What does it do? It resets your airline and gives you $5,000,000 in cash. It won't give you gates or a free choice in aircraft as the game does when you sign-up. Just what do you do? First, either sell-off or mothball your aircraft. Second, release all your gates. Third, declare bankruptcy.

Q. Miller said that he would include aircraft like the DC9-10 and the 737-500, where are they?

A. These aircraft are going to be included, just that they aren't yet. Check this thread for some more info.

Q. I created a route and it doesn't show it on the routemap. What is up?

A. Here are some options:

  • Wait till it updates by itself.
  • Try a fourced refresh, Ctrl+F5 or Ctrl+Shift+Refresh. (usually won't work)
  • Log out. Close the current window. Open a new one and log back in.

Q. I found a bug!

A. Chances are that someone has found the same one. You should post it in the bugs forum. Remember check the already existing threads before you post something so we don't have the same bug posted twice. Here is a short list of current threads about known bugs.

Just some posts that might be of interest for new airlines because you guys really don't like the search feature and the Announcments boards:

You can't change it yourself. You will need to PM one of the admins to do that for you. i.e Miller22 or Torquewrench.

If that fails your stuck with it.

remove all symbols other than the numbers, and it should work. No commas, dots or dollar signs, that's where it usually goes wrong

How do I sell gates?


There´s no way to do that within the game, so you have to find yourself a buyer (Normally reading the forum ads or advertising it in a new thread) and then agree the terms of the deal.

The way you get the money is buy buying/selling an a/c and back at a higher/lower price. To deliver the gate, you have to release it and seconds after that the buyer will rent it. You have to tell him when you´ve released the gate.

1.How exactly is the "Yield" value calculated in the "Routes" section? Is it how much a single passenger pays per single nm of route lenght on a single round trip?

2.Regarding ordering planes - is it still so that you have to have only 50% of money at the time of placing order and that you could use your credit to pay for gates in case you are in debt? As I have read some contradicting information.

On point 2:

U can order aircraft with 50% of its value, as required when ordering. Though, u can not buy gates while in debt, as credit is no longer part of this game. At this point in time, credit is just a useless figure.

Thanks for the answer.

Another question:

When you order a new aircraft when it will be delivered? Exactly after one month or at the time when the current month changed into the next month?

It depends. One airline can only recieve two aircraft per manufacturer per month. Last month with Airbus I had a A333 due in 36 months and it came in 1 month, it really depends. Usually it's not as long as the order book says it is though.
This Round: ID 16191.

Last Round: I have succesfully sold 82 gates! -- With no problem!
