it is when you maximize profits and profit growth by:
-ordering planes from many families at once
-maximize their utilisation
-use "scam IFS" (all lowest-quality options at max price)
some spamlines may also:
-gather as many daily pax. as possible early game, in order to charge the connecting pax. resulting from this a much higher price
-use several 2-3 frequency routes at a much higher price than default for early-game profits
-do other things

Guys like to troll other players exploiting/cheating the game system only for win. Without sense of game simulation. Capping routes and gates with absurd quantities of flights.
They usually start in USA or CHINA. and their flight maps have no comparison to a real airline running. and other things.

A spamliner is where you use all your utilization, prices are at a dollar, and you just spam your routes.
Even with scam IFS, how are $1 routes profitable?

it's the space-time continuum

Examples of spamlines characteristics
- Scam IFS (low quality high cost = high profit)
- 17-19 hour utilization (most airlines in AE use this though)
- Russian aircraft in the US
- Many aircraft types on one route
- Route flooding (going well over the demand)
- Over 2000 planes (some have over 6000)
NOTE: An airline doesn't need all of these to be a spamline.

Am I the only one here who thinks that the spamline stigma brings nothing but toxicity to these kinds of discussions?
I see spamlining as a playstyle. nothing more, nothing less. maybe you should too?

No, because it's unrealistic and really not that fun. Gets boring.

Unfortunately, your airline falls into this category.
Only Flubi Express!

"This player is an AE moderator. "
Wow, this surely is the end of AE if spamliners are officially sanctioned!

To be honest I like to build airlines that are sorta spam lines but still somewhat reminiscent of a full service carrier. I don't know. I personally hate spamlines that use the "hub and connecting pax" strategy but I can't really say I hate all spam lines because technically you could say I operate one.....

the fact you are running Shorts 360 makes you a Spamliner

The fact that he's running most of those makes him a spam line
If you want a realistic carrier, use fleet that would be available in your home country, not the Yak42 and stuff. You get the basics;

A spamline is any airline you don't like
