For anyone who wants to build their own airline route maps online:

 

1. Log in to My Maps via your Google account (if you have one)
 
2. Create a new map and give a title
 
3. Create several layers on your map for each hub, and rename them by the location of your hubs
 
4. For each layer:
-Start searching for your hub airport and add its location
-Change "Individual styles" to "Uniform style"
-Add in all destinations by searching their airports
-Lastly, draw lines to represent the routes
 
*You can color-code each layer for easier reference
 
This is what I did for LAP Belgian Airlines: https://www.google.c...764788661,0&z=2
 
Hopefully this helps out. Have fun! ;)

I recommend using a computer because it's easier. You can do it on mobile too, but it's more cumbersome because you have to manage constant panning and zooming around a small screen.

Makes sense.
