What is your suggestion?
The following routes are missing as contractable options at SYD. Note that only regularly scheduled flights will be considered, so no one-off charter flights. This information is based on data from OAG, flightconnections.com, flightradar24, info.flightmapper.net, and aviability.com data.If I’ve missed anything, or made an error, feel free to let me know and I’ll update the post accordingly. Please reply with any evidence to support (e.g., screenshots from FR24)

If the missing airline or missing aircraft type/livery do not exist in game, they will be linked to the corresponding forum topic (where they exist). If a destination is missing, but no existing aircraft types fly to that destination, then the corresponding aircraft forum topic is linked. If the airline is italicised, then the livery/airline already exists from that destination but under a different AOC (for example Wizz Air Malta is available through Wizz Air)
For the flight numbers, accompanying schedule information is provided in the drop down. Since not everyone is familiar with how flight schedules are presented, here’s some short-hand:
- S##: IATA summer season of 20##
- W##: IATA winter season of 20##/#+
- Y##: Year round flight schedule
- 1234567: These map to the day of the week (MTWTFSS)
- D: Daily frequency
- x: Except
Example:
S25 x25 → Flight is served in the summer season of 2025 on all days except Tuesday and Friday.
W25 D → Flight is served in the winter season of 2025/26 daily.
Y25 6 → Flight is served year round but only on Saturday.

How would it work in the game?
Make the destinations/contracts as listed above available. I acknowledge that fifth-freedom and triangle routes would require a better mechanism, however, there is precedent with both Qantas and British Airways being available from Singapore.
Why is this a good idea?
Improves realism
