Why only airlines based in big cities can have extra 7 millions but the others can't? It is so unfair. Airlines based in big cities are growing much rapidly because they got 7 million when they started and they bought plane with the money. Day by day their value increases much faster. I think that every one deserves to have 7,000,000.

what?

What?????
I started with 500,000 and a DC-3 just like you.
I'm based at ORD(roughly 77 mil pax a year), do airports get much bigger than that???????
-
Please be more specific. We have no idea what you are talking about :? (and this sounds important :? )
-
He probably means bases?

I understand your hatre of the "unfair advantage" brokers have in your opinion, Alan. However, I don't see anything specifically related to "7 million" (as in cash) or "big airports" in that topic.
James, please illustrate.

I think he means that people that start in big cities make money faster. I think this is unfair, but it's how the game is :roll:
Anyway, I think that's what he's saying.

Sorry, but I don't quite get ya. I started at Paris Charles de Gaulle and I didn't get any extra cash. Not a cent. The only advantage that I got was that I had the competition of 5 or 6 0.5-airlines, especially on my Frankfurt&London routes.
I have to admit: That was a heck of an advantage over you :roll:
-
Yes indeed! Competition, especially a large number of competing airlines, can be great fun! It will cost you at least 10% of your DOP, not to mention it will be harder to find niches in other airlines' route planning. Being based at a large airport is good for everyone.

:roll:
:lol: .. Also.. if your looking more DC-3's needed...
Edit: i meant to say.. If you base at small ones you still get profit.. like GRU im basing on
-
Only advantage I can see, apart from getting higher income from flights to smaller airports than I do, is that you get a high cost base "for free" as it will cost several millions for me to start a base at CDG compared to NYO where I started. But that's a choice I made, no one forced me to start at a small airport...

???
You don't get more DC3's because of that... 'cept for the ones which compete with you...
-
You cannot imagine the number of competitors growing. And profits of particular routes will go down very fast because of competition.
-
i said it before, i will say it again:
do not base out of a big airport, unless you KNOW you can anihilate anyone trying to enter the market.
airports of the 200k rent range are perfect spots for a good operation, since you will find little competition while making perfectly sound profits

Stephen said that players based in big cities can have extra 7,000,000. I saw some airlines' values are 7000000 more at the beginning.
-
Where did stephen say so? :S

Yea when? I look through all the threads everyday.. I never saw a post about "7m awarded to players"

Totally spam above me.. see why i dont spam...
If im correct you don't get 7m.. or whatever
-
I think what Stephen meant was you could get an extra of up to 700,000 in value if you base in one of the top 8 airports in the game, because of the two free gates given. However, you still get a boost of 100,000 if you base in an airport with only 50 gates.

Can you show me where you are quoting from?

I would have known, you can trust me there (at least if it was in the open part of this forum). It seems that you pretty much have turned and twisted stephens comment about the gate value 'til it fitted you... not the nicest thing to do (to stephen& to the guys you're accusing of having unfair advantages)
