    I'm still playing and have an all Airbus fleet of A390's and Cargo too, Royal Sun Atlantic Airlines and have a share price of $15,280.53 and am ranked 637th overall on the leaderboard. Am playing with around a year and a half.

    I had invested in you, tried to sell all my stocks before I decided to declare bankrupcy :(

    The fuel is still $15 :D:D Happy days - managed to get home, logged on and was expecting it to be sky high, but no :D

    Thanks joegriffin and Stinicker

    Thats a long , long way into the future.Just buy Dassault Mercures and maximum/dearest advertising and watch those things multiply at a mind boggling rate (especially if youre prepared to undergo sleep deprivation launching them in middle of night!)Keep doing that untuil you have 500 of them then switch to the next play in the classic ,never faisl sequence...widely available online (nearly certain its the DC10-10 or IL76 whichever is cheaper)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 686 ✭✭✭joegriffinjnr


    Missed the bloody 15 fuel!!! Still stocks available in my airline, big expansions starting today so invest!

    Griffair World Airlines

    $50 Fuel now!

    $50 Fuel now!

    Bought 4.5 million lbs of that haha. I was only playing for like 2 days at the time so I ended up with 4 and a half million pounds of fuel and no money.

    What's a good aircraft for a newbie? Something cheap and can carry a lot of passengers, using ATR 426s at the moment. I only have 7 routes or so.

    Dassault Mercure looks good but they're twice as thirsty as the ATRs :eek: I guess I'll buy a lot of them for now

    Edit: Actually the Mercures sound like really good value


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,657 ✭✭✭brandon_flowers


    200x Mercure, then 200x DC10-10, then 200x IL-96 then sell the Mercures and start buying 3 or 4 A380's per day. That is the real fast track plan but it's boring so get a few 777, 747-8, A350. Use whatever you like.

    2 different facebook accounts, using internet explorer for one and google chrome for the other one!

    You realise you can use google chrome and the incognito window in chrome to have both open - easier that having two different internet browsers going at once because that can cause problems. I use it when checking my email, have two gmail accounts that I use.

    Didnt know that! Fair play, will try that now.

    Wish I could just hand over the cash- I've 120 billion, yes, billion, in the bank........ Its taken me over 2 years- and I'm thinking of going for a complete Airbus fleet- dumping about 150 737-300s, and redesigning from the bottom up. I was using Johannesburg as a hub for a while- made my map look interesting

    I've actually got 250 A380s- and over 5000 Pax points accumulated, not sure where to go from here.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,557 ✭✭✭KeithM89


    Been playing this for just over 4 months, great little game.
    My airline, Scylla Air, has 160 A380s, 230 787-8s and 200 777s.
    Stocks at $1299 if youd like to invest :D

    I've over 900 billion in the bank and shares over 16,000 I'll divest some shares to help out you guys later on, it would would be cool if there was greater integration the way we'd like.

    Sell any stock, sell some A380s to see if you can get going again.

    If not, then a restart is needed.

    Cargo is too annoying- I kept getting caught drug running etc, and gave up on it. I think I may ground all my flights, every single one, and restart from a new hub- something unusual, 500+ planes based in Connemara? Hmmmmmm


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 686 ✭✭✭joegriffinjnr


    Go all Airbus, thats my plans eventully. Im going mad I restarted a few months back, would of been num 1!:mad:

    There is an Android App- it cost about 2 quid. Its broken at the moment though- there is a notice up about it on Facebook.

    You can always abondon the app- and use a fully compliant browser- like Firefox on Android- which can and does run it (though its a bugger to do it, and I only ever use a Nexus 7, because of the screen size)


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Regional South Moderators Posts: 15,247 Mod ✭✭✭✭rebel girl 15


    I tried it on google chrome on my S3, works a treat once I go to the desktop version of facebook. Its small, but will be great for me, can get on all the time now!!

    Share price up to 1.20 atm, will probably have to wait until Monday to get new planes, I'd say yhe smallness would drive me up the walls trying to create new routes. I'm on my way to one airport to get a bus to another to get a plane home!
