Connecting traffic in the sense that you would get passengers changing planes in your hubs. For instance, if you have a hub in LAX that went to SFO and DFW. There is demand for pax to fly SFO to DFW but you do not fly there directly. However, since you can provide a connection in LAX would you get a percentage of that traffic (taking into account that you wouldn't get everybody as some people would only fly directly, competition, and travel time)?
I would assume the update will come out after AT2 is released this week, AT2 isn't in the app store yet. I'm waiting to buy it.
Game may come out tomorrow. Developer hasn't told me when the update will be out but I expect about 1-2 weeks from release. Maybe it's being developed this week whilst he is waiting for release.
Not sure. Apple can take beetween 5-20 days to review apps and check that they don't have bugs or break there rules. You nether know, May come out today or even next week. It's all in the power of Apple.
Not really a stopover flight im saying that in the hub would you be able to connect traffic between to indirect cities, creating a true hub, with spoke cities. Sort of like what Delta has in Atlanta or American has in Dallas.
Being an aviation major, I'm glad someone else has some good knowledge on the general way airlines operate. Technically its called the Hub and Spoke system where the large airlines aka delta, American, etc fly into a major airport like Atalanta and then have the smaller regional airlines fly you to your final destination. But the game sounds awesome cant wait to see it in action ! Can we get any info on whether it is universal or not ?
Basicly code sharing? Or are you trying to say that an airline (V Australia) Flies you to sydney and then you get on one of there smaller domestic partners (V Blue) Take you to townsville? To set up that 'spoke' system you would need to make a Hub at the spoke airport. From there you can opperate flights out of that hub. PS: I can't wait to see if you all like it. I am really enjoying it in BETA, So much in fact that I play it on the train, Bus and when I went on holiday 2 weeks ago, On the plane. The developer has done very well. Well done Tradegame Lab..
I'm stoked about the new one coming out. I play AT1 entirely too much. With the hub, im saying can you connect pax like airlines do, not a codeshare or anything of that nature. For instance you have a flight from Los Angeles to San Fransico. You also have flight from Los Angeles to Dallas. You do not have a direct flight from Dallas to San Fransico. Would you be able to get a percentage of the traffic from San Fransico that wants to go to Dallas through your hub. A real life example would be Delta in Atlanta. Delta has a flight from Atlanta to Jacksonville. It also has flights from Atlanta to Los Angeles. They do not have direct flights from Los Angeles to Jacksonville. However, people fly from Jacksonville and change planes in Atlanta to go to Los Angeles. They dont get all the traffic due to some people want to go on a direct flight, competition, length of time etc.. but they do get some traffic. Another example from AT1 would be Seattle to New Delhi. The flight by itself would only have 200 people a week that would fly that route, however, you also connect Seattle to Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, and Denver. For simplicity sake they also only have 200 people that want to fly to New Delhi. However, u can connect all those people through Seattle so that now your Seattle to New Delhi flight has 1000 people flying because the paxs are connecting through Seattle. I hope i explained this right.
I get what your saying now. This is not possible in AT2. Doing this would make the game complicated (in my honest opinion). I think it would also be a pain for the developer to code. May be something we could bring up in the future as an Idea though. PS: I too play AT too much
Will stop over flights be added in the future? And what are some tips that you could give us for when "we play AT to much?"
Not sure too much about what will be in future updates but they will be good and often like those in AT1 (Tradegame are great with updates ). If you play too much AT then my recomendation is to lock your iPhone in a safe for the day. Nothing else (Unless flushing it down your toilet) can stop you from playing it. Also, DONT GIVE IT TO YOUR WIFE. She won't get of your phone . Infact, dont let anyone but you play it or else you'll never be able to use your iPhone again.
Hahahahaha. Yeah Once showed it to somebody and i didnt get my iphone back until like 11:30 pm. Playing AT1 of course. Now if what u say is true about AT2 being really addicting I probably wouldnt get it back till 2:00 Am. No but seriously what r some good tips like where should you start a hub and when should you add cargo flights and subsidary buisnesses. Also will u be able to tell which flights are cargo and which r passenger.
I think I said this earlier but heck, ill say it again. I am going to set up a stratagy guide some time next week to help players with questions. When you get the game I would love to hear your stratagies.
