Title: How To Pick Routes
Post by: Shawn67 on February 19, 2010, 05:38:46 pm

Is there an easy way to pick a route based on distance? For instance, if I have an aircraft with a range of 1050km, is there a way to find all destinations "within" that range without reasearching all routes 1 at a time? Thanks for the help. I'm new to the game, but really enjoying it so far.

If you have enough free tokens (60) then you can use a more advanced version of the Gate Search tool found under the operations tab. Otherwise it would be a case of researching each route individually.

Okay, thanks for the reply. I'll see if I can find some kind of off-site resource that can be used then. Searching all possible routes 1 at a time seems a little much to me.

I usually base my airlines off a real one, the routes they run, their hubs and aircraft.

There is a website that can find all airports within a certain range of another airport.

And, if you're resourceful, the basic gate search is all you need to search by distance.

Depending on when you registered, new players have 7 days to try out premium gate search for free.

I am usually based out of one of the major US cities and if it is an area not familiar with I'll pull up a map of the country. Every major city and secondary city has an airport. This might be a silly but that's how I roll :)

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. The gate search function is exactly what I was looking for, guess I overlooked it somehow in the beginning.
