Airline Manager on Facebook

Anyone playing it? My first route is from Kuala Lumpur to Sydney. Bought 10 tv commercials + Newspaper advertising and stocked up 500,000 lbs fuel at $600 per 1,000 lbs. At this rate, each flight makes around $230,000.

I picked this route because it takes 11 hours for each flight, just nice for me to start a flight when I wake, then start another when I go to bed. If I were to pick route that takes only 1 hour, I gotta start flights repeatedly hourly for maximum profits, waste of time.

How's your airline doing?

Fleets - 2 A319

Kuala Lumpur - Sydney
New York - Rome

Both advertisement by billboards...
"Learn from mistake" is totally not suitable for a pilot. You might be don't have chance to fly again after you did a mistake. You can only learn from people's mistake.

So far so good, I just started it yesterday. Not much attention needed, because there aren't many features after all. Just buy and selling aircrafts, manage routes (one route per aircraft only, so you don't even need to bother if you only have a few aircrafts), staff, fuel, maintenance, advertising and stocks.

Most of them you only need to manage for once. The main thing you have to do is to start flights. It's in real time, so if your flight takes 11 hours, you would really need to wait for 11 hours before you can start another flight.

Basically that's all it.

It's kind of stupid actually. My plane fly from KUL to SYD. 11 hours later, my plane teleports back to KUL by its own, and my next flight will still be KUL to SYD. :<.<:

Isn't it hard to earn money?

Not really. It's pretty easy and straight forward, I don't see away that you can lose money yet, it's either making much or making little.
