my comments...surreal...the game is just plain (plane..ha..puns..) wierd.

I have a flight not showing up in the map.

It's from Nice to Stockholm. All other flight's are shown except for this flight

I just tried something out. While I'm able to jack up prices to near 9k on my hub route BOS to CDG, and it's all connecting like everyone else here is saying, I did something different. I run BOS-LGA, and while that route is making $2.2 million per plane per day at $1500, I put three planes at $6000 (100% LF all connecting.) Profit was only about $300,000 or so, but I checked other routes, such as BOS-CDG. I was immediately able to increase the ticket price on that route a few hundred dollars. Imagine how that works if I did that to every domestic destination I had, and the resulting connecting traffic.

you mean like flying to every european city, most flights with A333 ?

Most major hubs in this game end up doing this anyways. I'm talking about the same bug that plagues LAX-LAS and the likes, and how easy it is to add a zillion planes to the route.

been playing in v2 with an office players account for testing the game script it is quite interesting when you apply a good hub market share how the ticket price jumps sharply in value there are a lot of destinations we tried that will not generate any revenue yet the hub has 60 plus percent share

one hub is market shared with another player and in the game if i apply matching value ticket price my lf stays at 100 percent and no loss in operational profit

this script is good miller just needs a few alterations for the lower pax locations so any airline can service it and not make it a ghost town location

good work miller impressed

I have many routes that I am getting way too much money for too. There is a lot of work that needs to be done!

I am getting bored with v2 now but I do have 3 major hubs, if they would be useful to anyone to test anything please let me know and I will do what I need to so that this can happen....

$80,000 a ticket can anyone match it?

[AirKevin]

Okay, I finally got some connecting revenue. Pie chart shows it right, however, the data says O+D is 10%, Connecting 10%, and Unused Capacity 100%. Can I actually have 120%? Going to look at other routes.

EDIT: Okay, some routes are beginning to show connecting revenue. These vary, so there's not much I can say about them. However, while the pie chart shows data that makes sense, some of the data below it makes no sense.

I use the "Change Aircraft " link quite a bit when changing from small a/c to larger ones. I found a bug today, if you take 20 routes, click the chnage a/c button(basically opening 20 brower windows) Select the same a/c in all 20 and you are able to put all those routes on one a/c.

I never got my planes this month. I don't know if you have to wait now or if it's a bug, so I'm posting it anyway.

I owned 75 gates at DXB, know i do not own them anymore and can not buy them back and build a terminal.

miller should close off this beta v2 as too many jerks hitting just high return places

[Lm1i]

Ok, this is what im getting, its probably been said but, as i Increase ticket prices on a certain route, the load factor remains at 100% but the profits go down, on my JFK-IND route i had a price of 700 with 100% load and a profit of 38K, later i increased prices to 900 and the load remained at 100%, but profit decreased to 6k

the 100 percentage thing is all riddled through the game and i found that the loss in return if you place price to high also happened i also spend hours going up in small prices to get the best return in the end i gave up as it takes hours to keep adjusting

ok the game server is slow or you would not be able to do this another reason the game computer server should be revamped and cleaned up just like any other office or home user would do it is called maintenance defrag and backup the junk
