There would have to be a restriction on them, so airlines don't make there Dash-8's fly Tokyo-Los Angeles via 50 island airports
The maxium would most likely be 2.
Reason being, in real life, there was a pair of Varig flights (9936/9937?) that used to fly: Tokyo Narita-Los Angeles-Rio-Sao Paulo.
sounds good, Although it I wouldn't recomended flying that at present day, as those where the days when many multiple stopovers where normal, and you still got to your destination "fast", those where the glory days for the DC-10 and Tristars

, But yes yoru correct, we should be able to mimic a similar route to your Varig example. If i where to pick, mayby like you said 2-3x Connection Cities, although the price doubles each city connection you create, and like gates, the base cost depends on the airport's size etc..
Well, A lot of nice suggestions have come from this post. I hope to see some of them used in future/or now :twisted: versions of AM.
Air Elbonia, very very nice points there. Im hope all that will be taken into account! The aircraft defying the laws of Physic's is annoying, 1x single plane can be used and abused to easily, 1x Dash 8 cannot just appear in some random city that you created as a focus city, although im certain this issue is being worked on

(or in progress)
thanks for all the suggestions and feedback, this sure has become an intresting post

looks like were all adressing our problems with the routing structure!
cheers,
