You know... not wishing to be mean but honestly maybe you should look at a map before you post on the forum. Part of the game is learning where to fly to and using the resources that are easily available like wikipedia and google maps to find the information you need.

I can understand your problem. I had little knowledge of US Geography until I started using VATSIM and Flying through Flight Simulator in the US. What also helped was playing these games. I suggest you use the Gate Search utility to find airports near your base.

I doubt that the gate search utility will help cause you need to know the airport code. What I suggest you do is to to go google maps and look over there. Thats where I find airports close to my hubs/bases

You do? What is that distance column for, then? Find the smallest numbers.

You both mean different gate search utilities. The one you should be using can be found by going to View Routes > Gate Search (link on the right of the route table)

Gates with a low cost means its nearby?

Nope, means that there are less passengers from that airport, thus less demand

The way I did it when I was based out of Cuba last round: I always had a 2nd tab open besides AM that showed me a map of Central or North America. Of course you still gotta know what you are looking for, but often it's way easier than using the "research route"-function!

Uh, I'm thinking Atlas or Globe. I always use my globe while searching for new routes in AM.
