From the FAQ - http://www.airline-e...as&section=faqs

"What are the benefits of a hub?

Hubs provide you with connecting passengers (see above) on routes departing/arriving at that hub. However, a hub also doubles your gate rental fees at that airport (due to extra staffing costs)."

To give you connecting passengers, they pay 1/2 the price but you can get much more passengers than nominal daily demand.

it's very simple. It's a very important thing in real aviation, as it is here.

 

And noobs who don't open hubs and keep crashing prices on routes where 2-3 airlines can co-exist peacefully are a major nuisance in this game.

Especially those who get big enough to have 500 planes but stay ignorant enough not to learn basics.

 

I.e., with hubs opening profitable new routes is much easier, and you will be less likely to see price drops and sharp competition that happen without them.
