Question

What is the minimal airline value that people can or should be making alliances at? :?

It depends more on your bank balance. If you go into debt when creating an alliance, your airline value will decrease as well. If you don't go into debt, I don't think your airline value goes down too much.

DOP
€234,107
Airline Cash
€141,490
Airline Value
€9,704,304

This is my current information. :oops:

In that case, don't. It will probably reduce your airline value to something quite low.

Not to mention it would take about a game month to get back into the black.

I'd say you created yours a bit too fast

Another update. Should I make an alliance or wait a while. :?

Bit of a no-brainer. I'd say wait until your dop hits €5m. Making an alliance now will prove very costly to your expansion.

Why are you disclosing your bank account to us?
I know you are in debt now...

I won't do it anymore, but that's a fake number.

Dude, build up your own network first. Also, forget about alliances... You may have better luck just using the cash to create 1 or 2 hubs. It also depends on where you are located and how much competition there is. I'd say if you must get into an alliance, get in one that operates mostly out of a different continent. That's a true alliance. But regardless.... it seems that you have a loooooong way to go before that happens. Make some mone, buy some planes, get some routes going, a second or even a third hub then maybe you can think about an alliance.

Alliances can be very very useful. You get cheap planes, guys who buy YOUR planes and tip-offs about gates, planes and the game in general.

Edit: At least that's the way it is in the alliance that I'm going to join again.
