Iam new a player in AE and the in-game aircraft utilisation is something that confuses me. As I want my plane to be on time, looking at the OTP sitting at just 60% baffles me. I have played 2 worlds so far, the first one I used 18-19 hours which is probably too high. In the second one, I use around 16-17 hours a day. Let's remember that this is the block time, not the actual flight time itself.

 

I flew with Emirates on DXB-BHX frequently. I believe Emirates utilise their aircraft around 12-16 hours a day depending on the destinations and what I mean is only the flight time itself excluding the turnaround. Most of the major destinations in Europe and Asia are around 6-8 hours, excluding Middle East, from Dubai. As for the DXB-BHX, the flight takes about 7 hours and the same for the return. Also, they must use the same aircraft for the return flight. I usually take EK39 which is a 0725 flight from Dubai and arrive at BHX around 1125(in winter) or 1225(in summer) UK time. The return flight, EK38 departs just 2 hours later which arrives around half hour after midnight in Dubai. If we calculate the total block time, it is around 17 hours.

 

What I mean here is that 16-17 hours utilisation in-game should yield higher OTP rather than just 60%. It's kind of depressing to see some people use an aircraft just 12 hours a day and left it hanging around half the day when it can make more money.

 

Btw, I joined the latest Rdelta and S4E and actually managed to get 96% rep in Rdelta and 100% in S4E but I pulled out from both because I am quite busy atm

I think I agree with you. It seems that it is almost impossible to max out OTP.

Welcome to Airline Empires, and good job with your amazing results in your first games!

Hubs help you get connecting pax to fill your seats when competition or something makes your normal loadfactor low. Connecting pax seems to pay only half the price of regular passengers, but it is better than nothing. Also, It could help you maintain a high loadfactor should you aim for reputation.

I have just started my new airline in Denver, to optimize resources I have reduced the number of gates to just 2. I pay for two but for some reasons I only have 50 slots in total. How can it be?

Do you fly 50 frequencies from that airport? That may be the solution.

Or maybe it's a glitch.

So I saw that this airline (a spam airline) had 3 of the same aircraft type being delivered on the same day. Is this some sort of exploit/hack? or is it just a glitch?

It can happen when you postopone deliveries.

Yes, if you postpone deliveries you could take delivery of an unlimited number of the same aircraft provided that you order them. Also, the more aircraft you take at one go often results in a long wait before delivery.

You don't make maps in NationStates, but yeah.

Actually, for roleplay a lot of players make maps in NS.

I would like to know how create a good IFS. I created a several IFS types but them are always poor.

Thank youuuuu :-) 

I found that the cheapest 5-star IFS possible (although there may be even cheaper ones, but I have not found them yet) is having the whole menu be a quality of 4 and for free, and then selecting all the accessories, again, for free; if you like you could also charge $21 for the souvenir, and it will still be 5-stars. I haven't yet experimented with 4-star and 3-star IFS completely yet, so I am not sure what the most efficient choices are. Hope this may help

Actually I've found the best scam IFS is the 1 star snack for $1 and nothing else. Surprisingly it made me $100,000 on one route. I think it's a bug or something.

That's very interesting to know

what did we as a society DO to deserve you, marb!??!?!??!

Yeah, welcome to AE! But don't start off criticizing people

Rememer, Hong Kong kids have been proven with evidence to be the third smartest in the world.

Who's the first and second?

Hi Candy,

I am sorry to announce that your application to National has been rejected.

Please feel free to apply two weeks from now, and all the best if you do apply again!

Personally I love the nose of the A350 but the engines and wing design is better in the 787. Again that’s mu opinion.

I agree with you on that. Although the 787 does have a really well-designed nose!

I personally also rather like the fuselage of the A350 better than the 787, for reasons I am not able to use words to explain well. And I also somewhat dislike the flexibility of the 787 wing, also for reasons that I am not able to use words to explain now.

Friendly and nice.

Why Christian Liberal Party?

I think he wants a logo and livery that has nothing to do with the real airline. He just decided that he wants to unoriginally use the name Jetstar for his airline.

Hi Zyreax,

Congratulations, you have been accepted! Zortan shall PM you with the details as soon as possible.

Welcome on board!

 

Help help I've been hacked!

 

My lowest scores reaches 50% F, and my highest: I score 100% regularly in maths.

I think he means that you used the wrong format for the application.
