Good morning everyone !
example: if I decided to keep an aircraft in my fleet for a short or long period, would there be a way to park it in the hangar? or would you stay still and occupy a stand for me?
thank you
There is no option to park planes for Short or Long term storage without occupying a stand or gate.
In our All World Alliance we are experimenting to use inactive (= not actual played) airports from Alliance members for this purpose.
@OrangeAir so if I am playing in Prague airport and I need to shelter one of my planes from my fleet, could I count on the stands at my two inactive airports (INN and Bari)? would it be feasible? thank you
No you cannot send planes to your own airport
@OrangeAir Good morning!! sorry for my question. What advantages would there be in joining an alliance? How would it take to get in? thank you
With an Alliance you are assured of a lot of reliable and consistent player contracts for a longer term.
This translates in quicker start up and developing airports, making money quicker, have more SP’s and XP’s and (by bying) GP’s.
Some examples:
When you close down your airport you can make agreements with other Alliance players to take over your contracts. So you can “hop” from one specific airport to the same airport of another player when the first one decide to close down. This provides continuity in the gameplay.
You can also make agreements on short or long term parking of your surplus airplanes when closing down an airport. You can store them at an Alliance airport then. This means you do not have to sell your planes and preserve them for later.
Keeping track of all the incoming and outgoing contracts is an additional challenging aspect which gives an extra dimension to the game. More fun to play
Last, but not least, there is a social aspect. Managing these contracts and constant shift of playable airports means you have to communicate a lot with you fellow members.
On the question “how to get in” I suggest you read the posts in de Alliance section and check who is “hiring” and who is not and on what condition(s).
And you are free to start own! Get an fancy Alliance name, post a description about it and your “terms and conditions” in the Forum and invite people to join!
Hope this helps.
Happy flying
@OrangeAir Thank you for your help, you’ve clarified my ideas a bit!!
good flight
I wonder how alliances will work ingame? Will there be titling on you planes in the same way planes irl have “ proud member of the ONEWORLD alliance” or whatever? Will there be benefits, or like what are we getting out of them that we don’t get out of discord and forum alliances?
sorry to bring up an old thread. how are people storing their planes they don’t want to use? I have a few owned planes taking up stand / gate space, but I’m not ready to make my own airline yet.
I sell what I wouldn’t use or leave it unclaimed. The planes from the premium pass are okay to be used even for AI destinations as they are more profitable, but eventually they get sold as soon as I have built up a fleet for player contracts.
In our Alliance we have an AMARF (Airplane Maintenance And Regeneration Facility) agreement between players. Non-played airports are used to store the airplanes that are “surplus” for a longer time.
Another reason to start or join an Alliance .
I sometimes sell, and sometimes send them to an alt account for storage
how do u do that???
I have an alt. I request a contract to one of its airports, then I approve and that account. Then I send the plane and don’t touch it again
