All Long Haul Operators - YOU NEED TO READ THIS.

Good afternoon fellow aviators.

I've reported a bug in the game a few weeks ago but it feels like the extent of it is much bigger than I had realised hence I wanted you all to check your operations as nothing seems to be prioritised to fix this. I've played this game for nearly 15yrs so I'm not a novice.

I am based in LHR and run 707 fleet on Long haul operations with some tech stops.

Some of these will have pax restrictions in place due to runway requirements. I'm very much relying on the information shown at the route creation stage.
THIS DATA CAN NO LONGER BE TRUSTED and I would recommend you look at your operations.

here is just one example but I have many more:

My flight from LHR to Seoul has a pax restriction of 114 pax outbound and 79 inbound. However once scheduled, it only has a capacity of 52 pax.

I know of an example from another airline whereby he should be flying 101 pax and in reality it flies 1 pax!

I would strongly recommend you all to check your actual pax flown stats vs the capacity shown on the route creation page.
This is a major issue that may cause airlines to BK as a result of this issue. Only when the pax restrictions are shown on the routes are there issues.

Yep, just look at this... I get 1 pax on the return leg. Route is KJFK-PAFA-RJTT. Runway at PAFA is 3597m. RJTT is 3000m so this may be the issue. KJFK is 4000m+ so plenty of runway there. Yet I can't trust this faulty data any longer. It's running my airline into the ground. I've lost about 8 points of margin at least since incorporating 707s.

Likewise for me LFPO - KJFK.
But it is of little use to write this in the advertisements.
