hi i know we have aliances but interlining is just part of what makes an aliance and airlines can and do enter into interlining agrements wiht airlines not in there aliance i think it would be nice to have such agreements in the game there would be a small cost to have one but a bonus to both lf and sales for having them.

in an interlining agreement the two airlines agree to allow eachother to book passangers on the others planes if they cant sirve them them self it airline that sellls the ticket collects the full fair and taxes then the airline that carriers the passanger will get a porton of the fair the amount is set in the agreement.

for the game i would sugest a mechanic that is based on airline size for example if 2 airlines are of simmler size they would each recive a bump of say 1% to both LF and to ticket sales however the greater the diffrence in size this changes larger airlines would see a better bump to sales (as they could demand a higher sales cut) but lower LF bump (the other airline simply dosnt have the custmer base to help as much) and smaller airlines would recive higher LF but less sales.  this would be on a sliding scale with the change getting progressively diffrent as the airlines size gets father apart or reducing if they get closer in size.
