This Wiki page is intended for advanced players looking for the best planes to build a fleet.
It’s based on profitability, not raw revenue. Fleet planes have maintenance, so a short route rewarding 1000 Wollars is much better then a long one rewarding the same 1000 Wollars, since maintenance will eat up the longer distance’s revenue and you’ll end up making no profit. That’s exactly the Concorde’s case, he runs at a deficit (you spend more money in maintenance then you make flying). Make the route too short, tho, and you won’t see any profitability either because the revenue will be too low.
- Profitability graphs, courtesy of Geoball_TA and Defoe Chan:
- These are the approximate distances planes peak profitability:
| Plane | Distance | Net Profit | Size | Handlers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A346F | 5300 | 12250 | E | 15 |
| A388 | 4200 | 8400 | F | 13 |
| B748 | 4650 | 8350 | F | 13 |
| B748F | 3800 | 5700 | F | 13 |
| B744 | 4650 | 7750 | E | 13 |
| B77LF | 4900 | 6800 | E | 10 |
| B77W | 4750 | 6950 | E | 10 |
| B789/X | 5000 | 6000 | E | 8 |
| A21NY | 4350 | 3750 | C | 6 |
| A21N | 3250 | 3250 | C | 6 |
- Bellow are the best player routes, and which planes you should choose:
| From | To | Distance | Optimal Pax | Best Pax | Best Cargo |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HKG | LHR | 5197 | B789/B78X | B748/B744 | A346F |
| BKK | LHR | 5168 | B789/B78X | B748/B744 | A346F |
| LHR | NGO | 5154 | B789/B78X | B748/B744 | A346F |
| GRU | LHR | 5105 | B789/B78X | B748/B744 | A346F |
| LEJ | NGO | 4861 | - | - | A346F/B77LF |
| BKK | LEJ | 4706 | - | - | A346F/B77LF |
| IAD | SCL | 4356 | A21NY/A388 | A21NY/A388 | A346F/B748F |
| IAD | GRU | 4127 | A388/A21NY | A388/B744 | A346F/B748F |
| MCT | NGO | 4066 | A388 | A388/B77W | - |
| HKG | SYD | 3990 | A388 | A388/B744 | A346F |
| IAD | LHR | 3185 | A21N | A388/B744 | A346F |
| LHR | MCT | 3148 | A21N | A388/B77W | - |
| HKG | MCT | 3055 | A21N | A388/B77W | - |
- ‘Optimal Pax’ is a route where that specific plane is close to it’s peak profitability.
- ‘Best Pax’ is, even while not being in it’s peak profitability, it stills earn the most Wollars in it’s class.
- Planes in bold represents the best planes+airports in game for player-to-player connections, profit-wise.
- B744 outperforms B77W in everything except handling crew. Meaning, prioritize the B744 in airports with plenty of handling crew, like LHR and GRU (or just go straight for the B748), and the B77W in airports like IAD and MCT, where there isn’t enought crew to handle all planes the RWYs can land.
- The A35K is less profitable then the B77W and the B744 in all distances and, even tho it can reach longer distances, it isn’t very profitable at them. That said, it generates more XP then the B77W and requires less handling crew and handling time then the B744, which makes it a very popular choice in player fleets focused on leveling airports up.
- B748 routes are much better then A388 routes due to the airports involved being better. If you really want an A388 fleet, tho, IAD-GRU, IAD-SCL and HKG-SYD are, in that order, your best bet.
- Update 3.2.0 introduced the A21NY as the longest reaching C plane in the game. While it can be used in routes like IAD-GRU, IAD-PRG, IAD-INN, LHR-CNN, SYD-BKK, SYD-NGO and SYD-HKG, it seems to be custom tailored for IAD-SCL, 2 out of the 4 best airports in game for C planes. Spamming A21NYs between these 2 airports will certainly earn you plenty of SP: 758 at Tier 10, to be exact! IAD can land 3 A21NYs simultaneously, have enough crew to handle them all, is unlocked for free very early on, and the NY only costs 26 GP to unlock. Seems we have a new best strategy to farm SP!
- Update 3.6.0 introduced the A346F, currently unrivaled profit-wise.
- Save your GP buying only the A21NY instead of the A21N/A21NX. It’s similar or better in everything.
Please let me know if you disagree or would like to add any route/plane missing!
