Hello,

Ah, I one for the little people!

Could I have Ryanair?

Ryanair is yours tintinfan! I will notify you when the world is created this weekend.

How will you be playing as Virgin Atlantic and Virgin America?

[tintinfan]

Thanks, can't wait! Nice being the Irish airline for a change... I'm normally the British one!

[jetrc]

I'll create a foreign hub in the US, probably in ATL, JFK, or ORD.

Thanks GoldDragonFly.

I have the tokens and can't wait to get started as JAL from HND.
Will keep an eye on the forum to see when you launch your World.

Thank you for letting me reserve Japan Airlines

Glad to have you onboard! Its going to be good!

Ok, it could work. I will keep it in mind, but if another player wants to play as Virgin America we will have to chat about this first. Will you be ok with that? You could also consider to use the global brand name instead, something along the lines of The Virgin Group or something....

Thanks GoldDragonFly.

Great! Its good to have you onboard! I will notify each player, who reserved and confirmed an airline, via private message when the world has been launched. (This weekend sometime)

Malaysia Airlines for me!!!

Welcome Malaysia Airlines! I have reserved the airline for you. I will notify you with a private message when the world has launched this weekend.

I was just wondering... AirAsia should be in the list too... considering its bigger than Virgin Blue...

[GoldDragonFly]

Thanks! I have it on my list I wrote down but must have skipped it when I typed the list of airlines. I have added it in now. 

[jetrc]

Ok, i'll make a global brand as you suggested, called the Virgin Group.

Roll on the weekend!!

Japan Airlines is ready to start operations and looks forward to competing in your World.

Just one aside, as this is a world for REAL airlines, 'Virgin Group' as such does not exist as an operating airline name.
(no offence meant to jetrc)

I understand what jetrc is trying to create and have no problem with that.

Through  the 'aircraft management' tab, I break up my A/C to fleets assigned that fly from different bases.
This is not visible to other players however, but does allow you to keep tabs on which A/C you have flying from bases as sub group airlines.

Perhaps allow jetrc to fly as Virgin Atlantic, but allow his 3 letter code VAW to stand for Virgin Atlantic Worldwide?

Just a thought.

Jay

EDIT # see you have added the VA brands together in your list, please ignore above post #

[GoldDragonFly]

jetrc, I think this is a good idea. What are your thoughts on this?

I am quite happy to keep you as Virgin Atlantic and have your code as VAW.
