First things first, you should try flying to airports near your home base. You should be able to fit a few routes on there, but I am not ensuring a large profit as it depends on your prices and your places

What should i do next ?
Airline Mogul - See my airline (http://www.airlinemogul.com/airlinemogul/show_airline.php?id=52555&wid=2042)
I am flying into almost every airport in japan from both major airports. Current DOC of about 12.3 million. It is 1964, what should I do to further improve. What aircraft should i use to expand, and should i improve my hongkong base, or open another. Currently my hongkong is only 1 base because i never really tried to find a bunch of flights from it. But right now I am using all my aircraft to the max, and don't know what aircraft would be best from hongkong.

You will find the answer here. Sometimes, you have to do a little bit of digging ;)

I, of course, want to reach the top, but, until then, want to also reach between 25M and 150M DOC. I know that is very attainable, but I know with any of your guidance, it will be very much a reality! I have been expanding everytime I can, sometimes each hour, sometimes a few times an hour. I am doing good, imo, so I don't really want to slow down. BUT, you guys are the knowledgable people here, so I will listen to your thoughts. I can expand 2-3 cities an hour sometimes. I do know that to start getting larger seat planes/longer ranges, I will need more cash. So, I am willing to slow down to get more funding coming in.
I have been leasing planes, to not pay maintenance costs. I think I am doing ok, but I will be starting longer routes very soon, and will need to know what best range aircraft to use. I am at range 600 with regular lease plane I have been using: Il-114. Anyway, I await any help you guys can muster. Thx.
Thank you for your advice/help!!!

I would say you could have either of the following: ATR 72-200, BAe ATP, KFC CV5800 or Dash 8-400.
These have ~75 seats and have a range of >1500
With >1500, you could reach Mississippi, Alabama, Maine etc.
Something else you could consider is having different aircraft for each cost of airport.
i.e.
A ~70 seater for a route to 50,000 euro airports
~120 seater for 100,000 euro airports
and so on...
You could go to brokers to get discounts.
You're going to put a lot of effort towards your airline to get to 25M DOC.
I have 57M DOC and I have 202,362 daily passengers and 112 KFC CV5800, 33 Fokker 50, 20 Douglas 8-72,
16 BAe-146-100, 13 Avro RJ115 and 23 Airbus A330-200s.

I feel terrible after a few mistakes, my bank account is in deep red (-252,000£), I'm not sure if I can have any more routes (Montreal-Cleveland + Montreal-NYC with the SAME puny ATR-42-500)... etc-etc... My goal is to grow into some airline that has some money to get into the Airbus/Boeing duopoly and have lond flights and etc.
-
I would suggest you to reduce the frequency of the Cleveland route to 1, leaving some hours on the ATR for another route. You should get a profit right now, just wait a few days. The first few game months will pass slowly, but soon you will have money enough to purchase new jets each month.

What should be my first jet? I'd like to fly all the way to California, that would allow me to have flights all over Canada and the USA.
-
I would suggest you to expand with props first, they are cheap and give good money. The most popular medium-jet aircraft are the A319 and B737, but there are also other good alternatives.
But fist things first, go purchase another propeller aircraft! :)

Great. Thanks...
And what does that means:
Due to lack of usage, a total of 1 have been flagged as disused at Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International. This means unless they are used, they will be automatically returned at the beginning of next month
I have received that in my inbox... I thought I was using my gate at PET International pretty well with many routes... and I've lost a good amount of money to.
-
You have two gates, each with ten slots. Each flight uses one slot per frequency, so you are not using your second gate. Don't worry much about it because the game will not return gates you do use.

Well, that was a small home airport... I would suggest you to go for a reset and select a bigger airport in the area (e.g. Bradley intl Airport). Then create many, short routes to nearby big airports. When you get enough money, purchase a good, small (20-35 seats) propeller aircraft. There might be some good offers on the market, but don't purchase old (3+ y) aircraft.
I'm not so good on 50's aircraft, but you can use aircraft search to find a suitable aircraft. As Bradley Airport has 5,250,000 passengers, you shouldn't fly anything bigger than 100 passengers, and that only to the biggest airports. Aircraft the size of a Convair 440 would be a good choice.

Alright, thanks! I searched everywhere for a reset button to no avail. Where is it located?
-
Oh, it seems I forgot; in order to reset, you have to contact the staff with your user ID and world ID, we will happily reset your airline.

Hello to all. My problem is that I can not lease a plane or buy a used one. My budget is positive. When I go to click Aircraft Market - Aircraft Aircraft for sale or for lease does not appear no aircraft in the table below.
What could be wrong?
-
It seems like there are no aircraft on sale or lease. It is a young world, so not many aircraft are available for airlines to sell. You can also buy some new aircraft instead - click on Aircraft and select a manufacturer from the drop down menu.
-
Thank you. Yes, I think this is the situation of my world. I'll buy e new aircraft... and by the way what do you think about the choice of a Aérospatiale N 262 ? It would be my second airplane and my base is Liverpool.
-
The N262 is a good plane. It is actually (if I'm not wrong) the starter plane in some later worlds.
