Title: Multiple return trips between short destinations
Post by: Elyk1981 on February 11, 2009, 11:05:09 PM

Hi all not sure if this has been covered.

I am aware that you are able to schedule a second destination on a trip e.g Sydney - Melbourne - Perth, but is there an option to have 3 or four return flights a day between two short destinations e.g Sydney - Melbourne return 3 or 4 times in a day to maximise aircraft utilisation using the same aircraft, If not is this a possible feature or upgrade in future games.

You just make multiple flights to the same destination ("Open new route") but with different departure times. Remember to take the turn-around time into account also at the hub while scheduling the flights. The flights do not have "frequencies" as in some other similar games.

Some of my international routes are calculated to be exactly 48 hours by double hopping.  That way, I get 3 planes to do one long route and make good money on all of them.  Then, I get 1 plane that fills the empty slots.
