Geography has always been my strong point so I feel stupid asking where Macao is. And Mali? thats really suprising so many come from there, and Canada is AM-less?

If it makes you feel any better, I am going to pursue a Masters degree in Geography, a major where I completed one semester of upper level college work with a 4.0 GPA, and I don't know where some of these areas are either...  I never even heard of Andora until I took Geography of Europe just last fall...

I believe Macao = Macau SAR, China

It is next to Shenzhen, and opposite to Hong Kong with a river in between. It is the place that has beaten Las Vegas in gaming revenue last year. It is also the up and coming place for mega-resorts (with casinos~).

The best casinos (apperantly) are The Lisbao and The Grand Lisboa.
+ Shenzhen is opposite Macau, Zhuhai is next to Macau. And it Low Cost Carriers fly there instead of Hong Kong to cut costs.

These are the traffic stats for airlinemogul.com. Remember it doesn't always have to be the people who play :lol:. (They are viewers)

Info provided by Alexa.

The one below was Nov 13, 2007's data..

Airlinemogul.com users come from these countries:
Hong Kong 21.9%
United Kingdom 20.2%
Australia 17.5%
Singapore 10.5%
Macao 6.1%
United States 6.1%
Philippines 5.3%
Thailand 5.3%
Brazil 4.4%
Malaysia 1.8%
Poland 0.9%



Now.. the one from today, compare the differences!

Airlinemogul.com users come from these countries:
United States 20.7%
Estonia 15.9%
Australia 13.4%

Seems like HK isn't No. 1 anymore  :D


Seems kinda strange... I know at least 3 active players from Germany- and it isn't even listed?

Alexa relies on traffic data coming from people who use its toolbar. Therefore, for Web sites with smaller traffic, like AM, the sample size of AM users who use the Alexa toolbar may be pretty small.

At 65 degrees north latitude, am I the farthest north Airline Moguler? Or are there any from northern Norway? :)

There might be some players from Iceland or Greenland who are at the same latitude (or from Nowaya Zemlya :roll: )

Now who is the southmost player? Someone from NZ? Or a chap from Chile?
