Someone will start South West in Canada so they don't have to deal with the 60+ other airlines in the USA.
I try to model my airlines after airlines in real life as far as destinations goes. I gave up on trying to use the same aircrafts.

Anyways I'm talking about the USA based airline Southwest. All someone has to do is add a space and then they can start it anywhere they want.

First, don't start off in Australia. US or China is a decent place to start.
Second, don't try to do long haul. Build from a small regional network. Start with airports within 500 miles then slowly grow from there.
Third, max out your hours until you learn how to play. Use the planes as much as possible.
Once you do this a few times you'll break the general learning curve of the game and start trying to make it harder on yourself and playing slightly more 'realistic'.
I disagree with the start in the USA advice. You are going to have a Minimum of 30+ other airlines competing over popular routes. The USA is more for experienced players.
My advice is find a country that doesn't have a lot of competition and start there. Here is some countrys I suggest but please note it depends a lot on the world you start in and when. I'm not listing them in any order.
1. Mexico
2. Spain
3. Turkey
4. Japan
5. Canada
6. Greece

Try and stay away from routes with competition while your starting out. Once your established, you can start to compete for routes.
The first year or so are the hardest. once you start making a DOP of around 2 or 3 million, it should get easier.
Lastly, set smaller goals. Instead of thinking you're going to get in the top 3 airlines, try to be the 1st airline in your country. Or try to be the top 100. I know this sounds easy but it takes a while to get the hang of the game. It took me about 5 different trys to finally get my airline to stay afloat.
Good luck. I hope this helps. Let me know if you need help running it or have anymore questions.
