Post by: Japanair on November 11, 2009, 11:35:53 pm
I never knew Hellenic Imperial Airways was more significant than Philippine Airlines... (I don't think Air Philippines is really that 'major')  ???

Also, China Airlines/Mandarin Airlines, Cathay Pacific/Dragonair, Alitalia/Volare, are subsidaries, which I think don't belong there... ...missing quite a few big carriers - VARIG/Gol, Philippine Airlines, China Eastern, Delta Airlines (?!), EasyJet, SkyWest (big fleet), RAM, Air Algerie, Saudi Arabian, Hainan Airlines, AirAsia, Air India (?!), Asiana, Olympic, Republic, and the list goes on.... :o

The airlines mentioned are all real airlines, fairly large and currently operating in a country. I have not listed them according to importance or popularity. (I can't list every airline, so I selected 2 - 4 airlines per country)

I orgininally had the idea of using the 2009 Airline Award winners and adding a few more, depending on how many people are interested to play in the world.

1 Cathay Pacific Airways
2 Singapore Airlines
3 Asiana Airlines
4 Qatar Airways
5 Emirates
6 Qantas
7 Etihad Airways
8 Air New Zealand
9 Malaysia Airlines
10 Thai Airways

Maybe use this list? http://www.worldairlineawards.com/Awards_2009/ResultsFull-09.htm (http://www.worldairlineawards.com/Awards_2009/ResultsFull-09.htm)

Good idea/Bad idea?
Title: Re: New world to be created - Air Empires: The REAL World
Post by: rayD23 on November 12, 2009, 09:24:54 am
Air Philippines is a sister company of Philippine Airlines. Now currently operating all PAL express A/C (Dash 300 and Q400) and routes.

Cebu Pacific Air, Philippine Airlines, Zest Airways(former Asian Spirit) are the 3 largest carriers in the Philippines.

Post by: Flybynight747 on November 12, 2009, 10:14:26 am
Sounds all good to me, would definitely be interested.

I usually play under JAY-AIR but naturally would be willing to forego that.
Don't want to 'call' which Airline I would be, but am happy to join.

Jay
Title: Re: New world to be created - Air Empires: The REAL World
Post by: GoldDragonFly on November 12, 2009, 10:21:02 am
The point with the listed airlines is that one, two or three fairly-well known and successful airlines, represents a country.

The whole idea with the world is that there is fair competition. Having a fairly equal amount of airlines per country will keep it that way.

Jay: Cool! That's what I like to hear....can you just give me an indication of which country you would be keen be based in? Or you can let me know which airline and I will be able to scratch it from the list so no one else takes it.
Title: Re: New world to be created - Air Empires: The REAL World
Post by: Flybynight747 on November 12, 2009, 12:50:23 pm
Certainly, If I could take Japan Airlines based in HND then I will definitely join, will just await a nod that the world has started.

Cool! I have indicated your requests on the airline list. The world will be created in the next few days.

There are still loads of airlines available, so please anyone who is interested in a good, fun world, with great start up features, please let me know!

Come on it will be good!  ;)

Glad to have you onboard! Its going to be good!

I'll create a foreign hub in the US, probably in ATL, JFK, or ORD.

Ok, it could work. I will keep it in mind, but if another player wants to play as Virgin America we will have to chat about this first. Will you be ok with that? You could also consider to use the global brand name instead, something along the lines of The Virgin Group or something....

Thanks GoldDragonFly.

Roll on the weekend!!

Japan Airlines is ready to start operations and looks forward to competing in your World.

Just one aside, as this is a world for REAL airlines, 'Virgin Group' as such does not exist as an operating airline name.
(no offence meant to jetrc)

I understand what jetrc is trying to create and have no problem with that.

Through  the 'aircraft management' tab, I break up my A/C to fleets assigned that fly from different bases.
This is not visible to other players however, but does allow you to keep tabs on which A/C you have flying from bases as sub group airlines.

Perhaps allow jetrc to fly as Virgin Atlantic, but allow his 3 letter code VAW to stand for Virgin Atlantic Worldwide?

Just a thought.

Jay

EDIT # see you have added the VA brands together in your list, please ignore above post #
Title: Re: New world to be created - Air Empires: The REAL World
Post by: GoldDragonFly on November 12, 2009, 03:39:16 pm
jetrc, I think this is a good idea. What are your thoughts on this?

I am quite happy to keep you as Virgin Atlantic and have your code as VAW.

Post by: GoldDragonFly on November 12, 2009, 09:02:07 pm
Yes, I am still deciding if I want play as Delta Air Lines or American Airlines. I have never played as an american carrier so this will be a first for me. I have mostly played as asian airlines before so know the deal with asian based routes quite well, so I decided to venture out a bit and try north america for a start.

OK, well I know steventommyobama, he's a good player and a good operator, fair and an honest guy.

To GoldDragonFly, before your world opens, if ,as the world owner you would prefer to be an Asian airline, I would give up JAL.
It's your 'World' after all.

If that was the case, then an American operator out of ATL would be my next choice.

It's up to you.

Title: Re: New world to be created - Air Empires: The REAL World
Post by: pck on November 13, 2009, 10:25:12 am
Just a question..... Countries with only one airport (eg, Singapore), will their only base allowed be Singapore?
Title: Re: New world to be created - Air Empires: The REAL World
Post by: GoldDragonFly on November 13, 2009, 10:43:36 am
If someone chooses Singapore Airlines, they will be based at Singapore Changi. My only rule for the world states that your airline needs to be based at an airport in the country where the 'real' airline operates from, i.e Malaysia Airlines out of an airport in Malaysia, South African Airways out of South Africa, etc.

Its your choice if you would like to have your main hub, the same as the real airline or whether you would like to have your main hub at another airport within the country. I feel that there is no need to restrict the hubs, aircraft being used or creating routes. That is solely up to you.

The only rule is, you have to play as a real airline, based out of your 'home' country and you will be free to choose what aircraft you will deploy and which routes you will create.

So yes, to answer your question, the player who chooses Singapore Airlines, will have their main hub at Singapore Changi. This player can freely choose which other hubs they would like to open worldwide in accordance with the hub limits.

Post by: GoldDragonFly on November 13, 2009, 11:47:42 am
UPDATE:

Thank you to everyone who already confirmed that they will join the world. Your airlines have been reserved for you. I will create the world tomorrow and will notify you once it has launched.

At the moment we need at least one airline operator in the following countries:

Africa - See list of airlines for availability
Central America - See list of airlines for availibility
Australia - See list of airlines for availibility
Middle East - See list of airlines for availibility

If anyone is still keen to reserve an airline before the world will be launched tomorrow, please reply to this post with your request and I will reserve and confirm the airline for you.

I am in the final run of the planning for the world and looking forward to launch this fantastic world this weekend! It's going to be real good!

Watch this space for more details......  8)

A QUICK CHANGE (sorry to shout!)

After reading that everyone is doing-trying something new, I may as well do the same.
I pretty much always play as JAL out of HND.
So, in for penny in for a pound, lets try something completely different.

Could I please change JAL for American Airlines based out of ORD.

I've NEVER played as an American carrier before and think this is the perfect World to crack on and change my game plan.

I understand If I have left it too late and don't want to muck you about.

Since you decide Foreign Base is 4, it will eat 8 allocated Base slot.

So, with that you can only create 2 Domestic Base...
I think better if you make MAX Base is 13, so you can create up to 5 Domestic Base...

Thank you to everyone who already confirmed that they will join the world. Your airlines have been reserved for you. I will create the world on Saturday and will notify you once it has launched.

At the moment we need at least one airline operator on the following continents:

Africa - See list of airlines for availability
Central America - See list of airlines for availibility

If anyone is still keen to reserve an airline before the world will be launched tomorrow, please reply to this post with your request and I will reserve and confirm the airline for you.

Watch this space for more details......  8)

I hope that someone makes a African Airline, I have once and it is a challenge because money making is hard but if work hard it is easy to get bigger. Also you get no competitors really  ;)

I have already done some RyanAir research for my bases. Just a small question can I operate to place where RyanAir don't? EG: Dubai or US??

Also can I have aircraft that they never operated: EG :A321 because they only have B737's.

Its a pleasure! Looks like you and me will be heading up the USA!  :lol:
[/quote]

Yup, for the first time, It looks like I will be heading up the USA, thankfully with you in ATL and me in ORD we shouldn't be in competition with each other.

This is the first time in 7 games I have done something completely different, I really can't wait.
I will keep in contact via PMs to let you know how it's going.

This is going to be the best World I have ever played in, thank you once again

That's what I think is really great, we ALL have our own agendas, yet for once, every player is willing to try something different, Play outside our own comfort zone.

steventommyobama is someone I know (in-game) very well, and this is his first European operation, as America is mine.

Gotta say GoldDragonFly, you have created a perfect World for all of us to play in.

Roll on the weekend, lets start something new.

Mebbe make it a 15 year World rather than a 10 year World (if you have the tokens) Am happy to send you some of mine should they be needed. Just a thought.

->You pick a real life airline and you base according to (one of) the hub(s) of your real life airline (example: Etihad Airways hubs in Abu Dhabi).
->You're completely free in case of operations/flights, you don't have to copy your real life airline in case of operations. (Ryanair may also fly to NY JFK).
->Once you've chosen your airline, you're fixed to the alliance of your real life airline. (so Lufthansa goes to *Alliance, KLM to SkyTeam)...
->You're not fixed to your real life airline fleet. (Example: Airfrance may buy 737's).
->Routes within the same metropolitan area are forbidden (EWR-JFK).
->Secondary hubs may only be opened when there is a real life sence in it, so KLM opening a secondary hub in Barcelona isn't allowed. But Lufthansa opening Munchen as secondary hub would be explainable. Also regional hubs like Zurich for Lufthansa is allowed, but not an extra hub of Iberia in Oslo.
-Violators of rules will get 1 warning, and are required to have fixed the violation within 1 game month. Appeals are possible. After 1 warning there will be a ban.

I like that a lot!  But, FBN, if we did that could you switch to United or I to a One World carrier?  Thanks!

Yes, as long as your main hub is in Ireland you can create any routes and use any aircraft. Your goal with this world is to grow your airline to be one of the virtual world's 'top airlines'. Enjoy!  :)

These are the major domestic Indonesian airlines. Metpati is the only one on the list with EU flying rights.

Awaiting to join! can't believe we are finally ready to go.

GoldDragonFly, one last change, I am presently reserved as American Airlines. I will want to join an alliance with my good friend stevetommyobama, he is going to be Lufthansa, so as American, I cannot join with him later in game to abide by the rules.

I still want to base in ORD, but could I play as United instead?

This will be the last change and I thank you in advance if you can do this for me.

I'd like to invite Lufthansa and American (or United) into Star Alliance. I will only accept airlines that are actual members of the real world Star Alliance (Virgin Atlantic is to be a member of Star Alliance.) I will create the alliance once i have enough funds.  :D

Post by: msnell on November 14, 2009, 10:00:22 am
I would like to start the OneWorld Alliance when ready and look forward to cooperating with all the appropriate airlines!

On another note, a forum has been created to support larger Private Worlds like this one at:

http://albionairlines.freeforums.org/index.php

It will allow players to discuss the game without cluttering this topic.  You will be able to privately sell aircraft, coordinate hubs, exchange news etc.  I will also create (password protected) areas for alliances to get together once they are set up.

It's free to join and supported by the world's creator - goldendragonfly.  Please join and enjoy!

P.S.  The forum group has another project in the pipeline which you may be interested in, check-out PW-???? 'Our World' on the forum.

Title: Re: NEW! PW#1075 - Air Empires: The REAL World
Post by: GoldDragonFly on November 15, 2009, 11:00:50 am
I am in the process of working on introducing a fun system into our world.

It basically will be called 'Air Empires Awards'

My idea is to give out awards to airlines, based on certain criteria. It will be a process which all players will be involved in, based on votes.

This is my thoughts:

Air Empire Awards categories:

1.) Airline of the year
This will be awarded after each game year. Three or four airlines will be nominated and the winner will be selected based on other awards earned, player participation, etc.

2.) Best low-cost airline
Same as above

3.) Best cabin staff
This will involve 'airline reports' on one of our forums. In this category each airline needs to outline their cabin crew and what they do. Based on this criteria, 3 or 4 airlines will be nominated and based on voting the winner will awared with this title.

4.) Best inflight entertainment
Same as above

5.) Best First, Business, Premium Economy, Economy class
Forum posts and airline reports will apply to this too.

6.) Best Airline alliance
Alliance owners/founders will be able to participate only. They will need to post on the forum why they are the best alliance and other players will vote for the winner.

7.) Best airport services
Based on forum posts and voting.

8.) Best airline lounge
Same as above

9.) Best onboard catering
Same as above

The award will be an award logo/design detailing the award that can be placed on your forum signature or with the airline logo in-game.

All players will be able to participate in the nomination and voting process and will have freedom to decide whether they want to participate in an award system. If most players agree to introducing this, I will set it up and coordinate the awards. Players will be notified when an award is up for grabs and then it will be up to you to convince the other players on why you should be voted for. Once we established who will be nominated to the 'final round', I will set up a voting system by which any player can vote for who they think should win.

Let me know what your thought are on this.  :D

My idea for the awards are that any airline can be in the run for the awards, except the low cost carrier award, which will obviously onlt be low cost airlines.

I will be designing the award logo today and post on here for some feedback. I want to launch the awards this week so that we can get going on it. It will be alot of fun!
Title: Re: NEW! PW#1075 - Air Empires: The REAL World
Post by: airlines08 on November 15, 2009, 01:41:00 pm
But, I think it's going to be controversy:

- when the airline only post all of the awards category without expand the airline.
- for someone who have a problem with writing an english language to persuade the others to vote.

Title: Re: NEW! PW#1075 - Air Empires: The REAL World
Post by: GoldDragonFly on November 15, 2009, 01:57:13 pm
If an airline wishes to be in the run for one of the awards, they have to proof why, i.e. if Delta Air Lines decide to run for Best Cabin staff, I would need to post a detailed desciption of what my cabin crew do, their uniforms, etc. on the forum. After a number of airlines posted similar posts, all players get to vote on these. The top 3 or 4 with the highest vote will then be in the line up for the actual award.

When posting for any award, you don't need to address the other players. It will be as if you are doing a presentation on the topic and presenting why you are the best in the category. Pretty much the same as doing an airline report.

Example for Airline of the year award:

'Delta Air Lines launched its maiden flight on ......... After the first year, the airline has shown growth and...... Delta's fleet consists of ..... etc.'

Regarding the language, I am more than happy to assist players who struggle with writing in english and I am sure other people will too.

Its just a fun aspect which I want to introduce and it will also be some healthy competition to win an award or multiple awards. Its solely up to you whether you want to particpate or not.

Does that clear up some of your concerns?
Title: Re: NEW! PW#1075 - Air Empires: The REAL World
Post by: GoldDragonFly on November 15, 2009, 02:00:37 pm
I very quickly designed something which will possibly used for the award. I did it in 5 minutes so its not the final design.

If anyone else wishes to submit a design, please feel free to do so. (Just remember to design it in reference to signature size rules)

Will there also be star ratings like Skytrax and airline by region?  Like best European carrier, just as an example of course, Lufthansa, a 5 star airline?

Edit: Ratings not rankings!

Post by: GoldDragonFly on November 15, 2009, 05:29:40 pm
Yes, I am planning to initiate a ranking system, but that will be based on different criteria, similar to Skytrax yes. I am just going to adapt it slighly so it applies to our virtual world.

The Air Empire Awards will be launched this week, so watch this space for more details....  :)

In the mean time any suggestions and award design are most welcome.

Hope you all are enjoying the world so far!  8)

We will probably 'host' the AE Awards on the private forum, but once its all in place I will notify all players. (This week...  ;))

JetBlue Airways has recently started operations from its New York JFK hub to major citites in the USA. JetBlue Airways is looking to provide a high quality service at guaranteed lowest prices. We offer what the legacy's dont, without the high fare. At JetBlue, we feel flying has become more of a chore, and so called "legacy" carriers are offereing full fares, but cutting down on frills and making us pay for extra. Here at JetBlue we are making a change, offereing free snakes and beverages on all flights, a state of the art live IFE system on its aircraft (first of it's kind in the world), and a smile on the face which will cheer up any disheartened flyer. Here at Jetblue we are looking to keep to a 2 aircraft policy for it's mainland fleet (B717 and A321), while also offereing smaller aircraft for it's regional fleet which will operate under the same brand and managment as mainland fleet (Ilyushin Il-114). In the future we will be looking to replace the a321-100 with a320 as the capacity is to high for our needs. We are also looking to partner with airlines such as Lufthansa and Aerlingus (As in real life) and is hoping to join the Star Alliance. We are also looking to expand our JFK base with our new terminal and new hubs will be periodically added LAX and Logan airports etc.



Happy jetting!

Sure, I am here to help. When you write a new post on the private forum, before you click on 'submit' or 'preview', scroll down where you will find poll details which you can complete and post with the text body you wrote.

Just remember, the star ratings are not in place yet. I am officially launching it this week only, after which all the other players will rate you in terms of the airport and onboard services you provide.

I am posting details and updates on it on the private forum, so be sure to keep an eye out for it.

Yes, absolutely.

The world was created for players to enjoy themselves. In order for this to happen you need to be an active player. I will perform regular checks to ensure we have a community of active players.

Should a player become inactive, I will notify them that I will delete them after another 24 hours of inactivity.

This will also apply to players not abiding by the general AM rules as well as the private world rules.

Hi everyone!
I have just joined the game, but as soon as I found this private world I fell in love with it.
The problem is: i'd love to join, but I'll have to wait for at least ten days. So I was wondering if it was possible to "reserve" a specific airline (in this case Alitalia, being based in MXP instead of FCO) and join as soon as I get the damned >:( 30th token.
Thanks in advance
P.S. You should also erase Volare from the European airlines, as it has been absorbed in the new Alitalia group.

The problem is: i'd love to join, but I'll have to wait for at least ten days. So I was wondering if it was possible to "reserve" a specific airline (in this case Alitalia, being based in MXP instead of FCO) and join as soon as I get the damned >:( 30th token.
Thanks in advance
P.S. You should also erase Volare from the European airlines, as it has been absorbed in the new Alitalia group.

I am happy to reserve Alitalia for you, if you are sure that you will join the world when you have the tokens.

Oneworld member airlines required - as one of the smallest (4 airlines) we are looking for new members to join the largest ($$$$$) alliances going!  So why not give Finnair or Cathay Pacific a go?  What about LAN Chile or Mexicana?  Malev or Royal Jordanian?  You will benefit from the 'world' leaders in discount aircraft and support.

Have a look at our own forum if you want to see how much is going on in this world!

No, the purpose of the news section is to mention the top 3 only.

I do in fact mean the 'largest airline'. The top 3 have the highest daily passenger numbers, biggest fleet and highest value, so they are in fact the largest airlines in the world.

We all look forward to welcoming new members to this PW.

It is a very friendly World and you will certainly enjoy it.

I am already based out of HKG. As Dragon Air you would be not only a competitor but a member of rival OneWorld alliance (as an affiliate of Cathay Pacific).

I am more than happy to take you on should you wish to base here!!!!

As a friendly heads up, I have 10 A/C to be delivered soon specifically for this base.

I think almost every player in this World would tell you I am a fair minded player, I never resort to 'dirty tricks' or bad tactics to undermine a competitor.

Base out of HKG if you wish, but be prepared for a fight!  :lol:

Lufthansa and British Airways both has been named as winners of the 1999 Air Empires Best Cabin Staff award, in another closely fought contest! Both airlines have proven that friendliness, enthusiasm and sincerity of cabin staff are clear differentiators when it comes to the World's best cabin staff.

WOW, I checked this forum before our own!
I am humbled that we won!

As you got outside AM friends to vote I honestly thought that YOUR (that's to GDF) post was better!

I really mean that!

I would be interested (via a PVT PM) how we won!

Please do NOT misunderstand me, I put a LOT of work into this award thread and am truely honoured that our alliance won.

THAI, you have already had several incarnations in this game.

As GDF has stipulated, AIR FRANCE is only open to new players.

STAR would take a very dim view should you choose to leave our alliance.

Congratulations to South African Airways! This Star Alliance member has clearly proven that not only do they provide excellent service in the air, but providing world class service and comfort to their passengers on the ground proves to be the key to a top international airline!

(http://www.airlinelogos.net/albums/l/thumb_lufthansa-2000s-yellow.gif) took second place and (http://www.airlinelogos.net/albums/u/thumb_usairways-1990s-b.gif) took third place.

Hi,

I would like to join as American Airlines. Thanks

Currently there are more than enough airline operating in North America and already, the competition is tough. If am happy for you to join the world, however I will suggest you consider one of the following instead:

- WestJet (Based out of Canada, currently only have Air Canada operating in Canada)
- Any of the available Asian airlines
- EgyptAir
- One of the African airlines (We currently only have one african airline, South African Airways in the world)
- Any of the available Australian airlines. (Qantas is currently the only australian airline in the world)

If you are keen to join or have any questions, please contact me!

All Nippon is still available yes. Tokyo Haneda has got 3 airlines hubbed at the airport, Tokyo Narita has got only 1 airline hubbed at the airport and Sapporo New-Chitose has got no airlines hubbed at the airport. This is just the details of 3 airports in Japan.

Don't pay attention to the other players who might comment on your requests. I created the world and you can get in touch with me should you have any enquiries or need any assistance.
