I know that this update is disappointing for many of you guys. But every change they made is making sense. 
If you want to make some money, you must find best route for distance/payment ratio. From NGO there are routes to China, where you can earn 12000 for 1 hour flight with X plane. With the new maintenance system after flying NM, you can make there hell out of money.
Really like new price model 
Old one was boring, because it was only more money for more milesā¦

I do understand where there going the main issue for me is every plane needed maintenance after update at every airport A,B,C and D planes now if that didnāt happen sure we can grind it out but as of now itās impossible unless I delete entire fleets and start over
Update is out, it as always is distributet not the same time in local google / apple stores across the globe.
No update on patchnotes at the moment because I have some better things to take care of in real life at the momentā¦

Speaking of which,is there any s cargo slot in IAD?my b462f cant land,which is annoying because whatās the point of buyin them in IAD
Iāve had the same problem and there seems to be none. Selling those aircraft is the only possibility to get them out of your landing queue
Wow, seems after the update I am gonna to uninstall as well.
Was about to purchase my first L plane, and was about to sell some of my E190s and A320s to get enough golden planes.
But then I installed the new update and now you only get cash when selling your own planes instead of golden planes?
Same without any pre-notification?
Did someone found out another way to get golden airplanes instead of buying same? (Ok, you will get one every here and then when archieving the next stage of āvisit from hauglandā and also from the seasons, but this will takes months to get 20 or 30 golden planes, as sometime ago the stages for visit from haugland have been drastically increasedā¦).

youāll get golden planes when you sell them after they have reached Maintenance D
Itās maintence C I believe, Iāve sold aircraft after D check but received W instead of Gold Planes.
ā¦ this isnāt real lifeā¦?!
Same thing here. 90% of PRG fleet needed maintenance and you really decreased the payoffs making it much harder to earn money. Donāt like that you sell the planes for W now instead of gold planes. Please donāt make this game only about $$ and paying to play. Iām sure we all buy and I know Iāve gladly spent money because the game is so fun. Some really good things in this update but some bad too.
This WOA update is really TERRIBLE. A huge decrease in earnings for handling planes and other bad things. No fun anymore. Time to look out for another game such as Unmatched Air Traffic.
I think that new update has a lot of PROBLEMS.
- Maintenance that was already said above (maybe devs should provide us some compensation per plane or per airport).
- Golden planes are not couting
- Liveries should cost maximum of 1 golden plane
- Economy: Comet (and Concord) for more than 1 000 000 W will give only 2 golden planes (no sense). I think the value of player planes should remain at the initial cost (I agree with the idea to give GP after C chcek to prevent buy and sell), so comet after C check should give again 22 golden planes, maybe after B check might give 50% of golden planes (comet after B check = 11 planes, planes that cost less than 2GP could give W like now).
- Lower amount from flights was necessary, but WTF is that? B738 Flight IAD-DFW (2:15) = 1 927 W, Flight IAD-SFO (4:37) = 2 367 W, (- fuel cost) twice as long, but the profit is lousy. There should be a standardized value per Nautical Mile (for example: S=0,014W/NM, M=0,012W/NM, L=0,01W/NM, XL=0,009W/NM)*Plane capacity - fuel cost - airport fees (mainly for stopovers).
- Fully understand why Concord is so expensive, but it should cost a maximum of twice the indigo campaign (= 30 USD ~ 200 golden planes), so to be fair Concord should cost around 500 to 700 GP, no more.
- Planes to be scrapped - I am not sure, I could be wrong - I havenāt scrapped any plane yet.
But if I am right there is no bonus when you scrap a plane, I think that player should get at least 15% to 25% of the cost of the plane, because in real life airlines sell their planes to a company that scrapts them (for a small amount but they sell them, donĀ“t give as a gift). - There should be different or extra slot for Cargo planes.
If anyone has an idea write them down 
I will add them to the list.

Youāre completely right and I hope the developers are reading. I cannot believe that my PRG based 747 flights have been reduced to M sized payments and the max earnings are HALF of what they were yesterday. Ridiculous.

I think the connection money should increase by a lot, definitely the long hauls. Thatās one of the reasons of the game

Money went down dramatically, but purchase stayed the same as well as maintenance cost,
Very weired,
Now my airport is full of maintenance flights at NGO nowhere to go for days to come because there no slots, only 2 for X and 3 for L
Apologies to everyone, we found out thereās a bug in maintenance price calculation. A fix for maintenance prices is coming later today.

I canāt send my planes with that income and fuel cost, and every second plane need to maintenance, just waiting for the news.
wtf yesterday I just check it and have sell 2 planes for GP, other all with good condition . dear WOA you make good graphic, interesting game , but this New update is too bad , without logic, its too much guys , that is not anniversary update! so sad ā¦
Thanks for letting me know. So we need to play much longer but at least there is still a chance to get more golden planes without purchasing. Fair enough, of course the developer want to earn money but did not want to get ripped off - so seems to be a pretty fair solution.
