Title: Your Airline
Post by: YamazaruNinja on June 13, 2008, 06:55:53 PM
This is for non pre-beta-testers only ;)
What would your airline be named?
What will you include in your airline?

Post by: airlines22 on June 13, 2008, 10:48:18 PM
first of all my airline would be called CHIAIR (prenounced like share)air and i would operaterate out of Chicago.
I would do many main routes and would fly (if started around now) 737-700's, 737-800's, 777-300ER's, 777-200's and E190's. The ratio between each of them would probably be 8:4:2:3:3. I would also have secondary hubs of Los Angles and New York. Airlines amuse me very much and am excited to both create one in this game and in real life.

Well, when I wansnt a pre-beta-tester, I wanted to be Seattle International Airways with a main hub in SEA, YVR, PDX, and SFO and Secondary hubs in GEG, BOI, ANC, FAI, and SLC. =) I would have fleets of 737-400s, 700s, and 800s, 777-200ERS, 777-300ERS, and ATR 72's and 42's.

737's  are excelent, but I believe airbus will be more fuel efficent for my model ,  if the starting time is befor airbus makes it in the market might use the DC-9's or 727's really depends on the starting time could even have to goto 707s  lol

737's are better for california. More fuel-efficient for the shorter hops (-700 than the A319) and the -800 and A320 are tied for the medium lenghted hops.

My Airline would be named "BahamaSky International Ltd

Home Base- Freeport, Grand Bahama. Bahamas - FIA
Destinations- I will have to re-examine my list but plan to cater to all regions around the world depending on fuel costs and ground assistance, subsidiary stations etc.

it would include fleet ranging from Dehavilland DH8-200-300 series, to Boeing 73S-200 thru 400 series, accomodating to invalids requiring lift-chairs, to extra seating-space for large shaped passengers, all my Boeing aircrafts would have First Class options. and my DH8's would have menu options to comfort their needs. My Airline would work hard to meet and maintain the needs of all customers, offering First Class Service to each and every passenger going beyond the call of duty.

I know, but I play ingame.... so I know what planes are good. Dont even go for the A340... unless you really need it. 767 are better and the 777 is better. A330s are okay, but not the best. B747's arent very good, but in some places they make tons of money (asia, like in the real world). MD-11 is okay. DC-10 and Lockheeds are okay... havent tried them to full extent. 707's are great for long hual. worlk like a charm :laugh:

   I'm not new to sims lol,  I go back long ways 1st computer was vic- and up from from there. I have played many business sims, from the dos days of railroad tycoon to aerobiz nes, to capitalisim , transportation tycoon, ect ect ect...
   
   I don't know the time frame of the game you are in, or when it started but if its in the 90's and you are useing 707's  the fuel cost has to be huge. Really depends when the game starts in history and where you are in the timeline, 

   A few questions I have been wondering is if there trans-atlantic travel ? can you puddle hop from SF or LA  to Hawaii on to the Far east ?  or is it 1 main hub and routes out from it and back ? or can you do a series of stops like LA to DAL to NY and back to Denv and LA for a loop ?
I could think of more but thies are a few questions i have wondered

Currently, you only have one base (hub, focus city, whatever you want to call it) where flights must originate. However, you can fly Hub-Destination 1 - Destination 2 - Destination 1 - Hub. Or (example) LAX -ORD -MSP- LAX. (So you can either fly it like a there is only a one way flight to ORD and MSP from LAX and only a one way flight between ORD and MSP). In this way, you can build focus cities, I did this when I based in Bangkok very well. For most destinations I did BKK - Destination 1 - Ho Chi Minh City - Destination 1 - BKK.

Hmm, own specific airline...

I can tell that in game truth is not always like you would it to be. As you favourite plane might not be best choise for you. Or order list of some needed plane is too long and you are forced to select some other plane.

And at in most scaries point you plane list might look like upper screenshot.

And if you make things ever worse, you order list might look lover screenshot.

Yes, there is some little challenges with fleet commonality...

Rainbow Airways International it would be called and operating out of SIN which is where I am from irl. With a few focus cities in the Southeast Asian region I hope. As for a/c types I am gambling on the A320 & A330 family with some sexy Embraers and ATRs perhaps. That is if it starts in the 90s. Would have to wait and see when the start date will be when this game starts.

Im thinking i will be going with Air Méditerranée - [AIM]

Won't be a very huge airline, but will hopefully have the market share in the Mediterranean areas, from Spain, France, Italy and the North African countries such as Morocco and Algeria. Fleet will likely be a mix of B738 and B737 aircraft. Possible hubs might include Nice Côte d'Azur, Barcelona, Marrakech, Rome, and Athens. Criss-cross network with some othe rflights to major destinations in other European countries (London, Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin etc).

I like it, you can't just get carried away, SPEN SPEND SPEND, trying to make a huge airline, then getting all excited when you get your first Airbus or Boeing aircraft...

If I was you, I would stick with Embraer, Saab and Fokker aircraft
Title: Re: Your Airline
Post by: RonWelty on July 05, 2008, 10:50:22 PM
i would do that. I don´t know really how the game process,but if the game allows to create small airlines, inside the major, i will create a division of VIP flights, a division of airplanes that do national transportation, between small airports... i'm tired of big airplanes, i will try to win the other half of the market. I have to see, of course, how the clients will choose the airlines they prefer to flight, like, mine and yours airline do the (example) Palma Mallorca-Menorca, and how we know how to get and attract that costumers...it's gonna be fun and at the same time challenging to play this game.

Strategy is to be a single-hub longhaul airline (the likes of Virgin Atlantic)

Target fleet:
A330-200 (all business class, select secondary airports like EWR or HND)
A330-300 (North America and Africa)
A340-500 (Asia, Oceania and North/South America)
A340-600 (higher demand flights-anywhere)

Goal is to only fly to destinations at least 2500 miles away.

My Airline would be called LAC, Lloyd Aereo Colombiano or maybe Avianca, as my national flag carrier. It would be based in Colombia's capital Bogota.

Fleet: Unlike Avianca, I would choose Boeing as my backbone, mainly because to me it seems better for Bogota`s hot and high conditions and for the colombian market en general than Airbus. Maybe some E-Jets for regional and smaller international routes and some Q100/200/300 and 400 for short runways and small markets.
Fleet distribution should look like this (assuming it is started around the ninties, this may change). This also includes destinations:
- 8 to12 Boeing 767-300/400 or 787 for Europe (LHR, MAD, CDG, MXP, BCN and maybe some others) and the United States, were destinations would be Miami, NYC (EWR and JFK), Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, Houston, LA, Washington (IAD most likely), ORD and maybe some other options.
- +or- 8 Boeing 757-200 or Boeing 767-200 for longer haul routes in LatinAmerica, such as Mexico City, SaoPaulo, Buenos Aires, Santiago and some bigger closer destinations, such as Caracas. This can also be used in rotations to the US.
- 20 to 25 Boeing 737-700/800 or 300/500 (if started earlier) for service to near South America. In South America, service to main capitals such as Panama City, San Jose, Central America in general,  Caracas, Quito, Guyaquil, Lima, Manaos, La Paz and Santa Cruz (bolivia), and Paraguay and Uruguay if the range permits it. This planes would also cover the Caribbean routes. This ones would also be used in bigger colombian routes, such as the "shuttle" ones, as Medellin, Cali and the Coast, from Bogota, as well as some services from theis cities to others.
-10 to 15 E170-190 for the general colombian market from Bogota and small and short southamerican routes, as well as the near caribbean.
-5 to 8 Dash turboprops for regional small service and aiports that can´t handle an E-je (a few here in Colombia, due to the moutains).

In total, a fleet of around 65 aircraft, perfect for good coverage of the colombian market. I really hope some competitors appear in the game for this parts of the world and not all of the action takes place in North America, Asia and Europe.  :)

And why Avianca choose Airbus for practically renew all his fleet? 8) (In addition to better adapt to the needs of AV by Airbus part had a discount as a new operator of Airbus). If you take Avianca how name at least takes a fews A320 and A330 :D (Is allowed a real airline name?).

I will be your competition (you're gonna have competition at home ;), my airline plan is similar to your plan, except that I will take market in other South American countries, and my fleet will be composed by Airbus -at least in long range-, or Boeing if the start time is before 1980), of course i will take other name :laugh:.

I like also the Manchester Airways and the Yalla ones, they are great.

I just found a template of an A321 and used Gimp to design the livery. I know there's some sort of technical way of creating a really nice livery such as that of SilverSky and Manchester but I couldn't seem to figure it out. So I ended up just "painting" it on Gimp.  :-\

North American Airways - NAA "At home in the sky"

Would start out leasing so fleet and hubs would be date dependent. Would start with no less than 3 aircraft. Depending on how leasing in this game works, would like to have a 60/40 own/lease ratio. Aircraft choice of course would depend on the hub and date.

Possible Hubs:

YVR - Aircraft focus 60/40 6+ hours/ under 6 hours
YYC - Aircraft focus 70/30 under 6 hours/6+ hours
YYZ - Aircraft focus 60/40 under 6 hours/6+ hours
ORD - Aircraft focus 50/50 under 6/6+ hours
MIA - Aircraft focus 80/20 under 6 hours/6+ hours
IAH - Aircraft focus 85/15 under 6 hours/6+ hours
LAX - Aircraft focus 60/40 6+ hours/ under 6 hours
SFO - Aircraft focus 60/40 6+ hours/ under 6 hours

I wouldn't really be wedded to doctrine. I would play the opportunist, and pop up in all sorts of places from game to game, trying different strategies each time. I DO have a weakness for the notion of bush lines out on the periphery. The notion of a hub based out of either CYEG (or CYXD in early scenarios) does hold a perverse fascination, even though it'd be limited to fairly regional operations (tentative name: Borealis Air). Granted, it'd be equally tempting to pick a major but oft-overlooked city like Bangkok, Manilla, Warsaw, Tehran, etc, and try some kind of Cathay Pacific/Emirates model with big planes, longer hauls, and fancy-schmancy stuff.

Personally, I find a DHC-8 to be just as impressive as an A380.  8)
Title: Re: Your Airline
Post by: Name_Omitted on August 25, 2008, 07:13:48 AM
Or the DHC-6.  Out of production for 20 years, and there is still something like 65% of the aircraft are still flying.  We won't know if the A380 is that impressive for a long time.

It depends on the age and condition of the aircraft as well as which weight configuration and engines it has. I currently have this:
  Name                Age     Cond.            Engines                                 Leasing cost
Airbus A 320-200  9.87 y  89 %  2x CFM International CFM56-5A3     446 680 USD / month

And when you lease the airplane, you must pay the lease for the 4 first months, so in my case I'd have to pay 4x 446 680 USD = ~2,000,000 USD. Then the next leasing costs would come only after those 4 months have passed.

This same aircraft is at the moment generating around $650,000 profit / week. So, I am making about 2,5 million USD / month - leasing costs = 2 Million USD / month.

My airline will call Brasil Transportes Aéreos and its hub will be São Paulo. I'm planning to start working with embraer's planes which are not big and costs are not that expensive.

My first plan envolves establishing regular services between the most important brazilian cities, it includes: Rio de Janeiro, Curitiba, Porto Alegre, Belo Horizonte, Salvador, Recife, Fortaleza, Brasília, Manaus, Belém e Florianópolis. The second moment would agree the implement of international routes to Chile, Argentina, Paraguai, Uruguai, Bolívia, Colômbia and Venezuela.

After getting it done, Brasil T. A. would be prepared to fly overseas. This third moment would have USA, the main hubs in Europe and Asia include to our routes map.

Planes used by the company:
- ERJ-145 (regional routes)
- ERJ-175 (national routes)
- ERJ-195 (national routes and Mercosul)
- 737-800 (national routes and all South America)
- 777-200ER (far far away routes: MIA, NYC, LAX, London, Paris, Rome, Madrid, Lisbon, Amsterdan, Frankfurt, Tokyo, Seul)

The aircraft i will be using will be small also:
B100(if it gets added to the data base) if not then the b99
c208
saab340
and most likley i will use 1 or to larger aircraft to fly to toronto, like 737-400,or 800

The name of my airline will be Thunder Airlines.

Post by: Talentz on December 12, 2008, 07:37:46 PM
Wow! Thunderbay? No joke? That's going to be very tough, with how the game is now. You have my blessings  8)

But isnt YYZ, Toronto?  ???


As for my "airline" when the game goes public.. I guess it depends more on the time or "era" we fly in (70s/80s/90s ect). I want to start in an airport with alot of international demand. I'd really like to try out 747s or 777s the like. Long range, high capacity aircraft.

I havent based at an airport with enough demand to fill them, so never had the chance.

Talentz is right about this one, in that Thunder Bay (last I checked) didn't have much by way of route stats entered for it. The model doesn't do the best job at estimating traffic for Canadian routes on its own, except perhaps (insert Major Canadian City) to Toronto. Smaller centers in particular are short changed on flights connecting them to the nearest 'hub'. The high arctic, in particular, suffers on account of this. In the Big Beta, I have a demand from Vancouver to Thunder Bay of about 30 pax per day. Ditto for Winnepeg, Calgary, and Edmonton. Toronto pulls about 70-80.

Of course, once collected, the route pair data can be submitted to Sami. I get the feeling I'll be taking a suitably obsessive look at traffic to and from some of Canada's smaller centers in the near future.  :-\

Hi Everybody.

Yesterday I found this website, with this amazing game to be.
I really look forward in competing with you all :)
For sure I will play the game as soon as possible, and therefore would like to introduce my airline.

I would like to present to you the worlds youngest airline Aurora International
Our homebase will be based on ingame data which still has to be investigated, but for sure we will base our aircraft in an European Country. It will either be German, Dutch or Swiss Based.
We will start operations with short range european flights, with destinations to be observed at a later stage.
Our aim is to become a high quality carrier with regional, continental and perhaps even int. continental flights.

I hope the game will be launched soon, as I am really anxious in playing the game!
Have fun to everybody! 8)

1. thank you and good luck to you too! ;)

2. Nope! I just have a habit of making airlines that have an aircraft make in my fleet that is _5 or _0. only some are an exception as I don't always start with 195 aircraft!
