Increased total handlers count for LEJ & MCT.
To vastly increase the amount of handlers for LEJ & MCT.
Increase the amount of handlers at LEJ & MCT to make them more playable.
Why is this a good idea?
This will make it so you can handle more than the current 8-12 planes at a time at LEJ and more than the current 12-16 planes at a time at MCT.
Increased usage of the named airports.

Attach anything that helps visualize or support your idea.
MCT is perfectly playable with it’s current handler count (at least for me, you guys probably have an exorbent amount more 748 and a388s than I do)
LEJ I can’t speak for as of now
Same for me at MCT, I have a lot of widebody contracts, including 747s and A380s, and it’s really not that bad there. Sometimes I have to wait for like a minute but usually it doesn’t affect my operations at all.
You can always buy more
Not all of us want to spend gp mate
True but you can’t expect them just add more because you want that
Reminder that this is still a free game with no ads
Sorry, just want to remind you that the airport is a cargo airport. Which needs quite a few crew to handle all of the cargo operations. (More than 140) it has been requested if lej could receive 220 atleast to run the airport smoothly. It also sounds like you don’t play lej often so you might not feel the pain.
I would agree with this but 10 GP for 1 handler is way too much. LEJ is also the main place for A124s and A225s (Premium pass gives one of both) which take up 1/6th of LEJs handlers per plane. With the main Antonov apron full it takes up around 100 of those 127 handlers.
You don’t have to handle every Antonov at the same time
LEJ need to improve by using sharing stands in the cargo area, which can give more than 50 crews and make it much more playable.
Never said you had to. But for an airport that regularly handles multiple of them IRL it should have the capacity to do the same in game well still allowing other airport operations. Even with just 2 of the A124/A225 you have to wait for enough handlers to assign other planes.
It is expensive, but IRL, an airport only wants to have more handling crew if it uses them all the time. After all, staffing of airports is an expensive endeavor, so maybe it’s supposed to be like that. I would like to see an option to purchase crew for SPs for example, but I understand that in-game purchases make up a lot of the revenue for the devs.
