How to play?

Getting started is simple and fast

This airline sim usually has many active games (scenarios or worlds) running at the same time. You can participate in any of these, or many at the same time too. The scenario and details of each game world vary. AirwaySim can support scenarios from 1950 to the present. Player capacity is limited to 200-500 per each game world.

Click on to the Game Area tab to see what game worlds are available at the moment.

How much time does it take?

All of the games run under "accelerated real time" mode. This means that a single day in the game world equals about 20-30 minutes of real time. A game scenario lasts usually 10-20 game years.

AirwaySim usually has many "game worlds" running in parallel. You can participate in any of these if there are free player spaces. You can also participate in many game worlds at the same time. Each full game usually lasts approximately 2-3 months.

To keep your airline running you should be able to login once every day to manage the company. You do not have to sit by the computers 24 hrs a day - you have staff employed in your airline to keep the daily things rolling.

What does it cost?

To get started all you need to do is purchase AirwaySim Credits which allow you to join the full featured AirwaySim games. If you are not yet confident enough you can also participate in the free demo games. The demo version is limited in terms of features and game play time.

The standard game cost is 5 Credits to join the world and then 1 Credit for every week played - converted to real money the cost is approx. 0.1 eur / 0.1 usd per day! With this you can get started in your airline career and see if you can beat the other players in building the most succesfull airline.

Credits can be bought in various packages from about 5-50 Credits at the same time. The standard 10 Credit package costs about 5-6 Euros / 6-8 USD.

Playing AirwaySim is very affordable. The standard game scenarios usually last for more than 2-3 months so the daily cost of playing is less than 0.1eur/usd if you play the game completely.

You can find the available game scenarios (full and demo) from the Game Area. Credits can be purchased via My Account pages.

All the features are naturally included in the games and there will be plenty of other players.
