They fly with the airline(s) with the lowest fares.

advertsing will never be implemented as AM's virtual people dont have logic other than to fly the cheapest airline. thus locked.

Advertising will be a feature down the road, when product differentiation is introduced into AM.
Multi-class is on our to-do list, and some features being considered in that direction including cabin customization. Assigning a image value to an airline is also a potential feature in the future, and if that is introduced, we would need to have means of advertisements. This is quite a long way in the future though.

how will that work??
-
Different cabin class / set-up / amenities... etc.

I suppose, just as nice seats will get you higher fares, a high advertising budget will get you higher fares.
Would advertising be simply allocating money or would it involve more control - such as a campaign targeted at a certain city/country/region or targeting a particular demographic. Also, how random would it be - really successful advertising campaigns are usually just because an advertising company simply came up with a really good idea (which is not at all guaranteed). If there is no randomness to it, advertising may become something which everyone/no one does - either advertising will repay itself many times over (therefore everyone does it), or advertising will be useless (therefore no one does it).
While things like seat size and meal cost are quite obvious in how they affect demand, I should think advertising would pose many more problems. While advertising is an important part of any industry, if implemented incorrectly, it would considerably reduce realism, rather than increasing it.

Agree. This is just something that is we think could be done. We don't have any details yet since there is quite a long way to go before it will be implemented.
