You're allowed to go negative. There is a limit on going negative which is a percentage of your airline value.
(Damn, I just gave strategy away).

@ nwaboy

Yes it does - rent deposit (nonrefundable) is paid which equals to the monthly rate.

Post by: nwadeltaboy on December 22, 2007, 11:17:45 pm: i know that...what i meant was initial fees. :)

It's because he's in ORD, a fortress airport in terms of passengers. I'd be at 500,000 had I chosen FRA again.

Too true...

The USA has plenty of airports in the database, though I'm very lazy by nature thus couldn't be bothered to research. I have no geographical knowledge of the USA.

Currently making around 260k which I think is not bad considering my airport.
Title: The New Round...
Post by: suntoucher on December 23, 2007, 02:59:32 am: Yeah up to 179k now that I've played around, at a 11.8million airport so I'm not doing terribly.

Edit: Only 200 air(Edit:lines, not ports) so far, by the time the game starts those making 500k should drop I'd assume, as we had a player base of 1600 airlines before wasn't it? Especially once the other airlines have read this thread and discovered where the big money is
