Title: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: Ben175 on December 01, 2008, 11:20:01 am: • PW 224 (Ben Private World/Real Airline World)
• Starting date 1/1/99 (Ends 2008)
• 9 years left
• Ends 2009-03-18 23:05:13
• 7 free spots available (5 taken, 2 reserved for a Networld member)
• 5 x Bombardier Dash 8-400
• 1 Euro (Although you are credited 10,000,000 euros once you have set up your airline :P)
• Will give you a password via PM
• Full world
• Click here to view world (http://www.airlinemogul.com/airlinemogul/view_world.php?wid=224)

PW 224 may be a little different from your average private world. You name your airline after a real life carrier, base at their main hub and then be able to take that airline in any direction possible! (Although it is required you base at alteast 3 cities in your carriers' country. This excludes airlines such as Air Mauritius and Sri Lankan Airlines)

This world is also extremely strict on competition. As we know, things get a little hectic when we have 15 airlines' based at Atlanta! So we decided to introduce a "3 max hubbing" rule, which limits the amount of carriers based at one hub to three. At airports with < 15,000,000 pax, the limit is two.

There are also limits on how many carriers are based at each continent. Currently we have left:

~~0 spots in Europe (KLM, Lufthansa, Ryanair)~~
~~0 spots in North America (American Airlines, United Airlines, Air Canada)~~
~~0 spots in Asia~~ (Japan Airlines, Thai Airways, Malaysia Airlines)
~~0 spots in Australasia~~ (Qantas, Air New Zealand)
1 spot in South America (LAN Airlines)
1 spots in Central America (Aeromexico, Mexicana)
1 spot in Middle East (Turkish Airlines, Emirates)
1 spot in Africa (Tunisair, Air Algerie)

It is strongly encouraged you try a region you haven't attempted before. Not only will this give the world a bit of diversity, it will increase your skills and knowledge about hubbing in the game. We currently have Japan Airlines, Thai Airways, American Airlines, Qantas and British Airways. A few Skyteam or Star Alliance members are definitely wanted! :D

Speaking about alliances, they will be based off real life. So if you choose to play a Oneworld member - you're stuck in oneworld. If you register as an airline who is not allied, feel free to choose which of the three you would like to appy for.

We hope to see some interest!

Thanks :D

Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: Ben175 on December 01, 2008, 11:08:29 pm: Haha no, you can take the airline in any direction regarding fleet, secondary hubs and stuff like that.

I'll give you a password and link to the forum now. :)

I'm interested, if you don't mind me being still green behind the AirlineMogul ears ;)

Would be cool to fill a Europe spot and try a hand at my previous employer...

Thanks for advising!

With playing this will PW you only waste time, when you will be first or got some airport before his friend the owner will kick you out of the game.

Have you got a basis for the accusations?

No, I sent this after you left OW in order to keep ORD from Wizzie and then threatened me that you'll be sending 4 717's to my main base just because you didn't like what you were hearing. Please, if you're going to go as low as that - tell the truth. In fact what you did was the complete opposite to what you said.

Unfortunantly Europe is all taken (couldn't modify the post when the thread was locked) :(

Africa and Middle East now have two spots. South America, Africa, Middle East and Central America are available. :)

Definently! You can open as many foreign hubs as the limit allows, but Europe cannot be your home base. PMing you now!

Post by: dominicyap on December 10, 2008, 11:29:41 am: Can an Asian airline be added?
Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: Japanair on December 11, 2008, 01:02:57 am: Nope. Asia, Europe, N. America, and Australasia are all occupied.
Only S. America, Africa, Middle East, and Central America are available.
And currently, we need more SkyTeam members.
Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: Ben175 on December 11, 2008, 08:07:06 am: Africa's gone! Suprising - I thought that would be the hardest continent to recruit airlines. :P

Etihad, Emirates, Qatar... Varig, Avianca, Mexicana, Copa Airlines, TACA... just a few suggestions. ;)
Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: dominicyap on December 11, 2008, 12:48:44 pm: Ok then. List me up as Aeromexico in Central America.
Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: Japanair on December 12, 2008, 05:46:49 am: Sorry, AeroMexico already exists. :(
Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: Ben175 on December 12, 2008, 07:31:12 am: Mexicana is free. :)
Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: dominicyap on December 12, 2008, 10:29:44 am: Then Mexicana it is!
Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: Japanair on December 13, 2008, 12:15:13 am: Mexicana is a future OneWorld member...
So I guess he should join OneWorld.
Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: yourefired on December 13, 2008, 01:07:33 am: Mexicana was in Star beforehand. We need a ruling on cases like this. Also: Continental. Leaving Skyteam, joining Star sometime soon.
Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: Ben175 on December 13, 2008, 08:49:28 am: Then the airline will join the alliance it is pending for, not the one if left ;)

PMing you now, dominicyap!

Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: Seattle on December 13, 2008, 08:10:22 pm: Do..... we have to join our RL Alliance?.... becuase there is no way that I will join the Skyteam! Star all the way!!!!!
Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: Japanair on December 14, 2008, 03:42:13 am: I don't think there are anymore spaces for *A or Skyteam because of the max. continent occupancy.

EDIT: Turkish, TAM, and Aerolineas Agentinas are free I think.
Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: Ben175 on December 14, 2008, 09:34:58 am: Yes you do have to join your real life alliance, or none at all. :)

PMing you guys now! I think we're all filled up.

Wait 1 spot left. South America!
Title: Re: PW 224 - Real Airline World
Post by: Japanair on December 14, 2008, 11:06:02 pm: The only airline that is based in S. America and can be in one of the 3 alliances we have is Aerolinas Argentinas. (star alliance)

Post by: Ben175 on December 16, 2008, 07:04:44 am: I granted everyone their 10 million (just probably wasn't noticeable) as I have a checklist in Excel where now everyone is checked off. :)
