I had a genius idea. :dance2:

The way to solve the problems of "A trillion dollars that does nothing in game" is to have convertible cash.

If you are tired of running your current airline, you just sell it. You put a list price based on your valuation (You can adjust above or below), and if someone accepts, they buy the airline. Then, you have an option to either run the airline separately or merge. Buying an airline will not add to your airlines, so you can buy as many as you want. :sly:

Once it is sold (Say you sell "East Airlines" for $1 Billion to "West Airlines") , the money is stored in world. You can use that money to start any airline in that world. So instead of starting with the 7.5 million, you start with an amount of money out of the stored money (Up to 100M). The money goes away at the end of three months in real life. Along with this I would suggest being able to buy another airline (I had two, sold one, then made another one and bought an extra airline slot). :thumbup:

 

However. After selling your airline you cannot use that name in your next airline (East Airways, sold to West, starts up East Airways). 

This way, you can buy/sell airlines, merge airlines, and have a bit more fun. It might be implemented, and I think it should be. If not, I believe you may be missing out on a great crowd-pleaser. :yes:

Thank you!
:hi:

It's the price for realism.  :)

Realism? How is starting off with billions levelling the playing field?

Yeah, spamlines will spring up left and right and center and up and down and every other feasible direction.

It would make it impossible for people who are a) starting the game with only $7million rather than the billions, if not trillions that people who run successful airlines have B) people who chose to run out of small countries/regional airlines for realism purposes and that it doesn't require much effort. While the idea itself seems good, the possibility of creating potentially 10/25 people who hold trillions when a new world starts makes it nearly impossible when trying to start an airline and face competition with an airline that can afford to run a loss on for years on that route and flood the market. 

I disagree with this idea  :thumbdown:

Because real airlines won't just closed down it's door with 1 single click? Nor do all their planes would be listed in the used market seconds after it's demised.

"You can use that money in similiar worlds" just that ae has 17 game worlds, doesnt mean its the same for the real world.
So this idea will only help spamlines dominate the game even more :/

You're right. Real airlines can't be closed down in one click. However, real airlines with 30% pms do not close down or sell in the first place. In AE it is so simple to set up and expand that we don't need booster packs - if one plays one's cards right, it's possible to have 20 midsize jets in the skies within 3 months, with billions already in your account.

You forgot the fact that the most you may start with is 100M. Anyways, spamlines are everywhere anyway.

It gives you a bit of financial space. Besides, the whole point is to put money to use.

So you sell your airline close to the end of a game, keep the money in this virtual bank and once the world starts up again you join in and have billions of surplus cash. no thank you.
