Sell the plane they give you straight away - buy a few smaller ones and start some regional routes. Make sure you keep enough for fuel

Jawgap · 27-10-2010 1:29pm

Forget any airline logic!!

Have a look at the game guide - there's some useful stuff in there.

Buy Dassault Mercures - about 800k a pop, decent range and decent passenger carrying ability. Base your routes on the longest range and highest demand you can find.

Buy some catering - the cheap stuff first. Cashflow is important and catering helps bring in a bit - not much but at the start it's useful.

and fuel - usually cheapest around 4-00am!! But occasionally it take s a dive between 1000 and 1100 (Irish time) - this morning at about 1130 it was $400 / 1000lbs

Been at it a week now and have a fleet of 40 aircraft

Mc Love · 27-10-2010 4:01pm

Only a week with 40 aircraft!? Jaysus! Oh ya - bought 200 million lbs this morning

Mc Love · 27-10-2010 6:21pm

700 now!

dubhoop · 27-10-2010 6:24pm

Just bought 300k worth. I started over again now with 5 dassault mercure. Feel free to buy stocks :-)

yeah, spent a few days messing around with ATRs and ERJ before piling into the Mercures - chugging along nicely with a fleet of 123 now - 98 Mercures, 20 DC-10-10s and the legacy ATRs and ERJs -

my main problem is fuel - I'm almost on vapours waiting for it to dip back to 400 to 600 per 1000lbs

Mc Love · 07-11-2010 3:57pm

Fuel at 400 euro now!

staker · 20-04-2011 9:10pm

Anyone still playing this?
My share value is at $1238,running 278 A380's,179 B787-8's,a few other Boeing,a couple of A330-300 and A340-300's and a handful of A380F's...
It's a lot faster than it used to be,and gets very addictive once you get roped in:o

b318isp · 21-04-2011 12:09am

Yep, currently ranking 224, share price $10,514.

Darius.Tr · 13-06-2011 12:23pm

I'we been playing this for about a month now. Currently have a fleet of :
Il-86-x50
DC-10-10-x50
Dassault Mercure-x50
Il-96-400-x75
A380-800-10

I haven't decided on a hub yet, im wondering what to choose.

Captain Commie · 13-06-2011 12:53pm

been playing for around a week and have:

6 * B737-800
5 * BAe146
1 * A321-200
1 * A340-200
1 * DC-8-61
8 * Breguet 763
5 * Dassault Mercure
1 * A319-200 (undergoing conv to cargo)
1 * Learjet 25B (converted to cargo)

not bad going for a newb, lol

no hub as of yet, just going for high demand routes. Already planning on getting rid of anything thats not Airbus and going for a 100% airbus fleet, but thats gonna take time

joegriffinjnr · 13-06-2011 12:56pm

I picked London because its kinda in the middle of everything and demand seems good. I added a fifth DM to the fleet but this time chose distance over demand.. mistake number one. I will change the route once planes on the ground. Can you name your airlines and Ill keep a list cheers.

Captain Commie · 13-06-2011 1:03pm

mine is Railton Airways

was trying to find you on the stock market but couldnt get ya

Darius.Tr · 13-06-2011 1:04pm

The only airbus AC's that i'm keeping are A380's, there are cheaper AC's than airbus with the same flying range, and seat capacity.

yeah, i was originally going down the boeing route as well, hence the purchase of the 738's, meh might keep it a mixed bag for now and see how it all goes

irishgeo · 13-06-2011 1:10pm

anyone got a link to this , i could get into this?

Captain Commie · 13-06-2011 1:13pm

on facebook search for airline manager, have fun and dont forget to post your airline name

MUSEIST · 13-06-2011 1:18pm

I'm blue global airlines. Have been playing for about 2 months now and have a whole range of aircraft.

Darius.Tr · 13-06-2011 1:27pm

If anyone is just starting Airline Manager, once you start have a look at Fast Track Guide, on AM's forum...I found it very usefull, and im still following it.

davetherave · 13-06-2011 4:18pm

I was playing back in the days of the golden circle

Started again there a few months back about 200m in debt, now I'm back up to 250m in the positive.
The only stock I have left from the old days is

Quinky Dink Airlines bought @ $2.86, current value $319.06, amount 100000. Winnings $316.21 per share. :eek:

I'm Maybe Airlines if anyone wants to buy some stock.

Couldn't find you on the stock market joe?

joegriffinjnr · 13-06-2011 4:30pm

Type in 'Northern Star, in search engine. Im Northern Star airlines. As I said I only started so give me time. The 1st stage of my plans is to get up to 50 DM aircraft, god knows how long this will take.

joegriffinjnr · 13-06-2011 4:35pm

Hmm, It appears theres 2 Northern Star Airlines, dont know how that happened but Yes Im not on the stock market!!

staker · 13-06-2011 4:43pm

I sold about 180 B787-8 there about a week ago,trying to make the whole fleet A380-800's.
Stock price $1357.84- 288 A380's,21 A340-300,20 B747-8,10 A380-800F.

Got a bit bored but might renew interest now again. Air Striker Airlines-5 achievements left to achieve,but it looks like I have to buy some of those which ain't gonna happen:pac:

Captain Commie · 13-06-2011 4:59pm

Gonna sell off the 5 BAe146's, dont really bring much to the table.

what i would love to see on AM is a way of setting the sale/buy prices yourself for AC and also for routes, would make it more interesting

Jmccoy1 · 13-06-2011 5:56pm

I'm going to give this another go. I have started up as Seonac Air with 4 Dassault Mercure' using the Fast Track. If anyone wishes to invest you might look me up.

Darius.Tr · 13-06-2011 7:56pm

Yeah I'm running out of fuel too, I'we about 200,000,000 lbs left and there's still more than two weeks left till really cheap fuel($50).

joegriffinjnr · 13-06-2011 7:59pm

Does fuel go down to $50 now? Its been a while since I played last. The lowest then for fuel was $200

Darius.Tr · 13-06-2011 8:07pm

Yeah I think it goes to $50 on the 25th of every month , atleast it did last month and a month before...So everyone gets their tanks full for a low price.And it also goes to 150 or something like that but i cant remember when, have a look at AM's forum there's loads of threads about fuel prices and schedules.

donvito99 · 13-06-2011 8:48pm

Just started playing today, currently have two 731s after advice from this thread. Flying to Bilbao and, hold on, reycjavik (?), long flights but after trying to do shorthail from Shannon to London Glasgow Manchester and, yes, Galway, it proved unprofitable. I think I'll save up for longer haul aircraft rather than going for lots of ATRs embraers etc.

Btw it's Aer Airways (couldn't resist)

EDIT: just bought a Yak 18-T, four seater, flying DUB - Inishmore.....for the laugh! Might expand to Inishark, never know

joegriffinjnr · 13-06-2011 9:09pm

Try to get the longest range and demand from them 737,s, flying Ireland to UK isnt going to bring you in the cash. I have added my fifth dm to the fleet now, hopefully one a day over the next day or two. Then I hope to add 2 dm,s every day. However Ive been on holidays from work the last week so might slow down a bit as im back tomorow.

Darius.Tr · 13-06-2011 9:21pm

Those DM's are really good for the beggining, especialy if you can log in every 2-3 hours as they can fly every 2 hours on their max range. Ohh and you can add me on the list livergy Airlines.

donvito99 · 13-06-2011 11:05pm

Now flying DUB-Haifa in a DC-4.

Seats 86 and does 4,000+ miles, not to bad. Are the more antiquated aircraft more prone to "incidents"?

cdsb46 · 14-06-2011 1:43am

need some investors only just started playing today, 3 A/C although third was a mistake think i might just sell it as soon as

Going to splash out and clear the accounts out and buy either another A380 or start on the cargo market with 777 Freighter this evening. Stock is currently sitting at 21.66, if anyone can afford it it would make some nice quick profit for them.

The golden circle returns

Darius.Tr · 14-06-2011 10:53am

Whats the name of your airline? i could buy 200k stock of you
