Unique Features (Perks of an Airport owned by foreign private equity funds)
Pay-per-use trolley automatically generates 1 wollar for every few passengers
6 wollar automatically added for each car passing through the entrance, with a chance of getting 100 wollar if someone is caught by hundreds of AI cameras dropping off a passenger anywhere else within the airport vicinity for just 10 seconds.
