Game Strategy / Re: Extending a Lease

« on: February 07, 2013, 05:08:31 am »

Is it something in the works? I, being new to the game and to leasing out aircraft in general, find that the option would definitely be instrumental. I have been trying to lease out my smaller aircraft as I upgrade to bigger more profitable ones, which seems to be working, it just seems to be a pain for the lease to lose all their routes just to make them again after it drops . . .

Game Strategy / Extending a Lease

« on: February 07, 2013, 04:04:54 am »

I have another airline leasing an aircraft from me, they requested for me to extend the lease another month at same rate to allow them to get a replacement. Can I extend the lease somehow, or do I have to let it drop, causing them to lose all their flights, and send the lease directly to them afterward?

Game Strategy / How to increase D.O.C.

« on: February 04, 2013, 10:54:50 pm »

It is 1996, I am based out of Boston, MA currently running 30 routes to 29 destinations, and my D.O.C. is 1,821,745. I am currently using 2 AN-38-100; 2 ATR 42-320; 2 SUPER 748; 1 BASLER TURBO-67; and I lease out 5 VardaxServ-Aero Hotters for 170,000/mo for 24 months each. I also have 4 KFC CV5800 on order. My question is, that I am not sure what else to do to increase my profits. I have flights ranging from 0.5 frequency to 1 depending on which makes more money, to all gates costing 350,000; 300,000; and 250,000. I also fly to all airports within 1,000 nm of Boston. I plan on creating another base in Dallas and Los Angeles to continue reaching all American, Canadian, and Mexican airports within a 2,000nm range. I have read that 1500-2000nm a/c are the most profitable, so I am trying that. But, I just don't understand how others have D.O.C. of 15+million
