Welcome to the wonderful world of spamlines, airlines that exploit flaws in the in game mechanics to come up with literally unbelievable business models.

[BJ-8]

is there a way of fixing this bug ?

or letting us know how we cam all exploit this flaw in the system

There is no intention to fix spamlines.

Spamlines operate by flooding routes with way more seats than the market demands and then setting the prices insanely low to make insane profits..

Also using the Dassault Mercure.

lol. The Trident 3C outclasses it in basically every aspect except runway requirement, and with the runway's the guy is using, there is 0 excuse to why he is using the Dassault Mercure.

Literally use the 747 and it works much better

I think there should be a line added to the code limiting the number of transfer passengers to a percentage of normal passengers on that route. I would limit it to about 150% of the number so if there are 100 passengers on a route you can only have a maximum 150 transfer passengers

I think this will bring back a bit of realism to the game as the current way this works is not realistic

Very true. However, our developers are not active, so you probably don't have much chance of having that. however, it's a good point, there are so many things that need to be done.

oh I didn't know development on AE had stopped that's a shame as this is a great game and with a few tweeks could be even better

Yes I know, right? Unfortunately, the number of people willing to help develop an entire video game for free are limited

It's my failed experiment at emulating Imperial. It was *way, way way* more profitable running sub-600 mile routes from major US airports (basically a true regional) before I restructured to experiment. Expect me to plunge in rankings, I went from 40 mill DOP to 4 mill DOP doing this. I'll be slowly tweaking things to see if things improve.

 

P.s. Why Mercure? Imperial sure loves his 717-200s, and leasing 500 Mercures takes deliveries up to the year 2000 even when it goes out of production at 1975.

LOL go see LAX-JFK and LAX-SFO, they're both dumped with a lot of seats.
