Hawaiian cargo can swim

[schro]

In GW4, I'm flying EDDF-PHOG (route is old enough to have an RI of 95, which is typically sufficient to move all demand), yet, less than half of the demand has moved from potential over to actual, as if the overlapping airports on other Hawaiian airlines are impacting Maui's actual demand. If I recall the manual correctly, cargo doesn't swim, yet, it appears to be doing so in this case.

Expected result: potential demand should match actual demand as no other service between Maui and Kartoffelland is currently offered.

I'm seeing the same with potential vs actual demand on other hawaiian islands where routes have been running for far longer.

IIRC, cargo swims, but badly. Thus the island across the sea will have difficulties transferring to your own island's airport if the 1st island is pretty well served already, way more difficult that it would on land.

From the manual:

Another factor is the previously mentioned set of border crossing rules - people do not tend to take a ferry over the sea to catch a plane for example.

This tells me that half of potential demand shouldn't be swimming.

Would like to see if this modeled - for international borders system does seem to work as intended, but I have always wondered about islands within the same country.

I remember JumboShrimp from previous GW1 flying Hong Kong - Kirkwall ... which only makes sense if cargo does swim. Probably hard to program/implement water as a barrier of sorts

Cargo does swim since it forms not know of the islands or other obstacles inside a country...
