Thank you very much. I really appreciate it. I accepted one as in the meantime I had to tighten my Policy to “1 Aircraft per player per Airport”.
I’ll gladly send you something soon. I have not got enough funds at the moment as already I bought (and sent already) 7-8 Planes Class E/F in the last 48 hours.
Cheers :smiley:

Send a request from HKG with a E class.

Hi guys. This is for the ones of you that might read this post and for the ones on the waiting list. There were lots of people sending me planes to LHR and I’ve now ran out of capacity. Thank you all for sending me all those beautiful planes and for the ones that didn’t get any aircraft from me, I’m sorry and thank you for your understanding :grinning_face: :airplane:

Re: LHR Hub Operations — Official Closure Announcement

Dear fellow CEOs and Community Partners,

After countless successful flights, outstanding player contracts, and an apron that has seen some of the most impressive liveries this community has to offer — Zurich Airways at London Heathrow (LHR) has officially reached its peak. The airport is fully maxed out and has now hit its maximum level.

As a CEO, you have to know when it’s time to move on to the next challenge. Since there is no meaningful progression left for me at LHR and the grind there is slowly taking the fun out of operations, I will be officially winding down active contract operations at London Heathrow by March 31st (+/-).

I want to be upfront about something: I’m fully aware that my original opening post was only 19 days ago, and I genuinely apologize to anyone who was thinking more long-term when they connected with LHR. That was a shorter run than any of us probably expected, and I appreciate your understanding.

What happens to existing connections?

No abrupt cuts — I will continue to honor all active connections and handle outstanding contracts as long as they are wrapped up in a reasonable timeframe around the deadline. If a contract has been sitting unhandled for too long past the closure date, I may have to cancel it to move on cleanly. I appreciate your patience on that.

What’s next for Zurich Airways?

My operational philosophy has always been to fully build out an airport with all real-life contracts before opening it up to the community. I currently have a few airports developed enough following that same approach, but I can’t yet confirm exactly where I’ll be opening next as I want to make sure my next opening is more long term than LHR. Top candidates at the moment are IAD or HKG — I’ll announce the next hub as soon as it’s ready for connections.

It’s been a genuine pleasure having your liveries on my apron. Let’s make the most of these final weeks at LHR — and I’ll see you at the next destination. :airplane:

Best regards,

CEO of Zurich Airways

It’s been short, but fun! Thanks for the good and steady connections. I’m positively looking forward for more of your planes in the future - whenever that will be :slight_smile:

Do you still open for connections? I’d like to share you some of my planes (from an to IAD). Tell me if I can send you some connections. B77Ws
