An Interesting Observation

I looked up 3 airlines in Chicago and they have the exact same route structure! I wonder if a certain premium feature is responsible... :twisted:

And Im one of them....

(I research in W3 and write them down)

So the cash in my account will be more than others who is lazy to do this

That's hardly a premium feature :wink:

But yeah, most likely premium Gate Search got to some people, finally.

Why do you pay for premium gate search, when you can do it all yourself on Excel in about 5 mins? Same goes for aircraft, but they're less helpful.

I'm In Chicago, and I'm using my premium Excel function...
Although the premium Gate feature had some great features and is easier to use!

Keep in mind there are people that are too lazy to research in the beginning and just copy for as long as they can keep up.
and really how many places can or will you really go in the beginning months with 1 plane there is sure to be some the same espically in an over crowded starting base such as ORD.

PS, you can always move or request a reset...

The only thing that using Excel doesn't help with is when new airports are added to the game. (Which is why I've migrated to an Access database. :twisted:)

Then you just make a new one

I see. I use mine to also calculate various block times for aircraft for route planning as well as mark which airports I'm flying to. Creating a new one would be a major hassle for me.
