And will you get the acheivement for it?

Eventually- whenever I manage to get 100 routes out of my hub...... I thought I was close, but am only at 64 thus far. I went on an expansion binge from other airports (New York, London and Geneva) without thinking through what I was doing. I haven't reassigned any of them though.......

GiBBYAir

Not sure if that airline is an accredited member of the Green Jersey Index

And just how can we 'join the gang' so?

My Airline is GiBBY Airlines but it's sold out! Another good one to invest in is ShAmRoK Airlines, not my own, but I have a big investment in their success - and their still affordable at around $3 per share He's buying 2 x 787s each day now and steadily growing!

I am kind of torn, I could reinvest my daily income in short range planes (Fokkers, 737-900 etc) to get to the achievement but I would rather stretch out into 777, A330's etc and improve my fleet.

I started to add A342s at about the 50 aircraft mark. (Maybe try B787-800 as an alternative, A330/B777/B747 are too expensive at this stage) Didn't get the 100 Hub achievement till I had over 150 overall routes. Expand first then maybe start adding the odd A320/B737 to your hub. The 100 routes will achieve itself eventually. I was able to keep count as all my A318Es/A319s/B737 were from my hub.

Thanks for the stock tip Paul. Grabbing now.

You're a member as you post in this thread....easy!


Concorde is awful......250K profit on first flight. Being sold as soon as its back in Dublin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

JRwings Airlines still has plenty of shares and at 1.44 its a good time to get em while there hot.

Ive moved on from the MD80's to the A340 and B787, 1M and 1.5M profit respectively!!

A great chance to get in early for stocks in my airline (NiceFlaps Airlines). Currently at only 0.13 and plenty available. 5 aircraft so far with another two being added tonight. Am in this for the long haul (no pun intended) so invest now while I'm still good value.

bit of a crisis at OMAC Airlines tonight. have 125 jet aircract currently all in the air but when they land I've only 500,000lbs of fuel. While I've about $31 million in cash handy I really dont wanna be spending it on buying fuel at it's current $1,600 price

macrubicon

Managed to find it at $400 so bought 75m lbs. Shares took a 30c hit though...

Puts the fleet expansion back a bit but should not need fuel for a while.

Yes I agree the A321 is the best bet.

Might try a couple of them myself.

At the moment my fleet is mostly B737-300ER. Range of 10200 and they bring in about 500k per flight. Would this be considered good, or would I be getting better value using something else?

Thanks folks.

BTW. I just bought 40,000,000lbs of fuel, so my shares are temporarily down if anyone want to take this chance to get them cheap.

500k per flight is alright. But thats only 1000k a day on routes that length. If you put an a321 on a 5500km route you get about 500k per flight and send it 3 times a day for 1500k. Even better is the DC-10-10 if you don't mind its tendancy to guzzle fuel. The DC-10-10 can get about 700k per flight so makes about 2000k a day.

Just bought 500mill lb's of fuel, cost me over 200mill, my share price has gone down a lot, if any investors want to jump ship then feel free, plenty more wanna jump on my gravy train :D

Nothing official. It was the group name for the Irish Boards Airlines. A previous member posted regular stock updates and we gave each other notice of stock increases so we could profit off each other. That poster is no longer playing and there are now so many Irish airlines its hard to keep track. I thought it strange that a new poster merely put up his logo,then looked at his AM profile. Its funny because after you get the 800K shares sold achievement its no real benefit for you to have investors,unless it pushes up the stock price somehow.


Edit: Sold my Concorde (EJ-FST) after 2 flights as its muck. Made profit of 250K per sector,granted each sector was 3 hours! Far better to have 25 A342/50 A321 instead. Got my achievement though!
Anyway sold it for $357M, used proceeds to buy another A380 and lots (300M lbs) of fuel. Stock price took a big hit but will get back to $60 soon enough. Gonna try for full billboards adverts on most of my 226 routes tomorrow than we're back into an expansion phase.

Edit 2:

How low do the advertising costs go?

On Monday and Thursday the cost of Billboards goes down to $5000. Same as fuel,it will hop from $400 to $1200 today and Saturday. Keep checking each hour until yo see the price you want.

Cheers Dacian..

miju

sweet just logged on to find fuel at $400 spent all my 30 mill on buying 75,000,000lbs and sent all my planes flying again and have just short of 25mill in the bank again from those flights so OMAC Airlines is back on track

Potentially 5k for billboards Monday AM and Thursday AM. Best bet is buy 3 days of advertising every Monday- and 4 days every Thursday to max up on cheap advertising.

scudzilla

Shares have dropped from around 18.50 to 16.80 for scudzilla airlines, reason is i'm on a mission to get the 850,000,000lbs of fuel achievement, at the moment i've got 670mill lbs in the tanks, normal service will resume in a day or 2
