    Hi all, only started playing myself (not sure how i missed this) but love it so far. My stock is at 0.13, I'll be playing this for a while so i suggest investing soon. Name is Seamy Air. If anyone is in similar position i'd like to invest in yours too (while stock is at ground level)


    P.s Thanks for the heads up rebel girl

    Griffair Malev Airlines a new spinoff from Griffair. Operating a mixed fleet of BAE146 and CRJ100 aircraft from London Southend. Stock at 0.09 so worth a investment.

    My staff salary has gone out of control. Is there any way to reduce it?

    I bought well at that price, had my fleet grounded for a day while prices were so high!

    About 7 months ago, I bought the amount of an airline with stocks at $34. Stock price is now 2070 :eek: It is now worth 414m :D

    Playing this a bit now - seems weird to have more Dassault Mercures in my "fleet" than they ever actually built!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 695 ✭✭✭Lockheed


    What a rubbish game this is. Every time I log in I have to raise my bloody staff's pay because they go on strike. Fairly sure thats not how strikes work. I have about 25 planes, this game could be so good, but they really cheat you with the whole PAX points as well

    trick is to just hire new staff.

    Keep knocking the pay back to as low as it will go- and hire a handful of new staff to keep them happy..........


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,638 ✭✭✭b318isp


    Keep staff morale above 55% to avoid strikes.

    You do actually get PAX points while playing, just at a relatively low rate. Widebodies with wifi are likely enough to turn up a few.

    Its not like the Zynga games where you basically can't play without paying them a huge wodge.

    116 frames for me now - if I've not logged in in a few hours setting the lot of them off brings in about $6m (and maybe 5 PAX points)

    There's a small dot over near the bank balance that gives you PAX points when clicked (once off) and beyond that, take a look at which achievements are easy enough to get.


  • Registered Users Posts: 686 ✭✭✭joegriffinjnr


    Im actually back playing this now aswell. I.A.G. Group Airlines (formally Griffair). 404 aircraft and stock increasing daily.

    Regarding Pax Point, If you launch your planes one by one I tend to find it increases your chance of points.Its time comsuming though. Make sure all routes are advertised, your aircraft have IFE and WIFI and you have catering.

    Playing by the standard strategy (Mercure-> DC10-10-> Il96-400->Doubledecks) but bringing the bigger craft in quicker and I've got my first Il96 in now.

    My extremely bland job that lets me fire flights off all day pretty much helps quite a bit. Won't be too sorry to see the Mercures go to let me only log in every 10 hours or so, though.

    Need some investors purely for those achievements, EIDL Airlines if anyone's got a few virtual quid free...

    The stock pricing system is illogical though - I dropped 41c due to buying 100 million pounds of fuel at rock bottom purely because it dropped my bank balance a bit. Spend the same on aircraft and you go up due to the asset value!


  • Registered Users Posts: 686 ✭✭✭joegriffinjnr


    Just invested in you. Make me rich!! Im going to get the cargo option in the next few hours hopefully convert a few MD11,s

    Royal Sun Atlantic Airlines

    Fuel $5 up to 3pm !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 69,413 ✭✭✭✭L1011


    This is when having a few tank expansions comes in handy.

    Been playing it off & on for past few years lowest I ever saw was $15 !

    I may look into this!

    Don't, the game is dissapointingly bad (that's my opinion anyway)
    Try out Airline Empires, it has no in game purchases so noone gets an unfair advantage


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Jhcx


    Fuel currently only $400

    Try get the plane config pax bonus. (Costs 500) Then you can convert you fleet to all business class. Much more resistant to demand fluctuations (and higher demand too!)

    Sorry to be dragging a post up from the past, but I have gotten the config option, but every time I try to use it, whether to convert a whole plane to business or just partially it states an error, anyone know if there is a general problem or just mine, I am using the iOS app

    From playing this game I know, the app is only good for starting your routes on the go, if you want to do anything serious like that you'll need to use the PC, makes it easier

    Most people on the game try to rise as quickly as possible max out your routes and have all a380's personally i cant see the fun in that. so i try to run it like a business. its a slow process and painful trying to keep track or all the routes. Im currently working on North America. My hub is Shannon and 80% of my routes a short haul these are all a320neo a/c small but big at the 190 mark most are all business a/c to make profits. unfortunately i feel that the a/c is too big as a short connection hopper for feeding the big hubs. so im using the embraer 190-200 but is there a better a/c for fuel, seating and distance as a feeder plane, always still about 15 seats empty id rather fill these planes and have x daily flights rather than not full.
