#266710 (Rδ) - Shared Control of TAL

Posted by MSG17 on 01 April 2018 - 06:45 PM in Airline Takeover / Shared Control Requests

As the game world is just starting, and I have managed to get some prime routes out of Madrid, I would like to share control of the airline before it gets over my head.




#252353 What is a normal number of daily hours for different types of planes?

Posted by MSG17 on 17 November 2017 - 03:50 PM in General AE Discussion

I think in AE 4 hours per day are already reserved (possibly for maintenance), so the absolute max utilization is 20 hours

#251579 Make your own airline game

Posted by MSG17 on 13 November 2017 - 02:16 PM in General AE Discussion

A few of us are working on a basic prototype build but the going is slow (weirdly enough people can't dedicate 8 hours a day to work on a volunteer project). But that said we could always use some help if you've the skills time and drive

 

I would like to help. What skills does this project need?

#246134 Trans Air seeking co-owner/regional route manager

Posted by MSG17 on 06 October 2017 - 06:10 PM in Airline Takeover / Shared Control Requests

Over my time with my last partner, I discovered that I had a specialty in long-haul routes, while my partner has a specialty in short haul. After he has left to focus on his own airlines, once again we are seeking a partner to help run this big airline.




#245388 Long Haul Flights that Seem to Have Unecessary Stopovers?

Posted by MSG17 on 29 September 2017 - 03:27 PM in Real World Aviation

The Philippines MNL-YVR-JFK service is a fifth freedom route for them.  There's not quite enough demand for them to fill a plane between MNL & YVR or MNL & JFK, so they operate that route & enjoy the right to sell tickets to anybody on the YVR-JFK route.  They used to do it for MNL-YVR-LAS, but changed it a couple of years ago to MNL-YVR-JFK (I presume because of lack of demand between MNL & LAS as well as saturation of YVR-LAS by Air Canada & WestJet).  Phillipines prices are actually pretty good for YVR-JFK.

Interestingly, the only direct services between YVR & JFK are provided by Asian carriers enjoying 5th freedom rights.  Cathay Pacific also does it with a HKG-YVR-JFK routing & I remember reading awhile back that the YVR-JFK leg was very profitable for them.  Domestic carriers (Air Canada & United) provide service between YVR & EWR, but Cathay Pacific has done a good job (until recently) of keeping other airlines off the YVR-JFK route.  They squeezed out HMY Airways (defunct Canadian carrier) several years ago I recall.

 

Wow, thats pretty interesting that JFK-YVR nonstops are only done by Asian carriers. I guess its profitable since businesspeople probably like the service and possibily since they can get wifi on the flights.

 

Another interesting route is AI's EWR-LHR-AMD route, because for some late booking (ex. within a month's notice, like the defualt on Google) it is actually the cheapest NYC-LON option. Also, I think a lot of Middle Eastern airlines run service between SIN, BKK, and HKG based on the stops needed for flights to their home countries.




#244906 767-200er not showing up to allocate routes?

Posted by MSG17 on 22 September 2017 - 12:06 PM in General AE Discussion

Alright, today it's working. Looks like everything's good now.




#244875 767-200er not showing up to allocate routes?

Posted by MSG17 on 22 September 2017 - 02:04 AM in General AE Discussion

The problem is not with that, I have already checked distance and runway length. The issue isn't with hours either. I think there's some bug since no route I tried was working when I last tried it. I'll try again tomorrow.



#244821 767-200er not showing up to allocate routes?

Posted by MSG17 on 21 September 2017 - 03:46 PM in General AE Discussion

I'll add screenshots later. Basically, whenever I look at new routes in my airline, my 767-200ers don't show up. Anyone else having such an issue?




#244643 Shared Control of >3B Worth Airline in R3

Thank you! You have been added.




#244621 Shared Control of >3B Worth Airline in R3

Posted by MSG17 on 20 September 2017 - 12:34 AM in Airline Takeover / Shared Control Requests

Are you committed to only using Boeing aircraft?


Well I was, but I am seeing how other airlines have more diverse fleets, and since the planes I want to order with Boeing I have already ordered a lot of, I'm thinking of looking at some other manufacturers, especially for regional jets and transatlantic flights, maybe even breaking in to choppers.

For example maybe I could get a Dc-10 fleet that would then be replaced by MD-11s and later Boeing 777s for more popular transatlantic routes.



#244606 Shared Control of >3B Worth Airline in R3

I want a co-owner to help this airline in this vital stage of growth and also to help with the two main problems we face:

 

1. Reducing delays in allocating aircraft to routes

2. Lack of fleet diversification, especially as Boeing orders will take a lot of time to fulfill
