I’m not sure where but I feel like I could do better, I’ve been playing properly for the past 2.5 years

I have designed more than 80+ liveries across my network except one (a 787-8 China Southern). I am not selling them by the way. Here are snapshots of the liveries I have designed. I have some that are purely fictional like the A338s (but they flew A332s), but most are very accurate and real-to-life.

NOTE: Transaero, Air New Zealand, and EgyptAir are not in the updated snapshot.

This is a next‑generation airline management simulation built around a living, dynamic passenger ecosystem.

I’ve created a free to join airline sim that aims to recreate the current world but at level that allows you to rewrite the current hub and spoke model… if your human competitors will allow.

The goal of this game is to be realistic but to make it difficult for entrenched players to easily dominate and steamroll the competition.

How does this game do that and what makes this game different from all the other airline sims?

Realistic Passenger Demand:

The demand and passenger model was created to be realistic and uses real-world passenger location, travel trends and economic data, not real-world passenger flight numbers. You have the ability to create a new hub-and-spoke system based on the real world, not recreate the same hub-and-spoke system that is currently in place in the real world.

Demand is modeled at a granular passenger level, which means you compete for passengers by location and they are not captive to specific airports. Passenger choice and selection is dynamic, and depending on the type of traveler (business, pleasure, VFR) they have a preference and the ability to compare connecting flights to direct flights to get to their destinations.

Dynamic world

Much like the real world, the airline industry and broader economy are always in a state of flux, and you should be poised to react to numerous economic challenges that may threaten even the most entrenched airlines. Be prepared to withstand pandemics, production delays, wars, fuel spikes, economic downturns, and a few pleasant surprises much like airlines in the real world have to overcome.

Decent Pace:

One Day = One month in game time

Free to play:

The game is free to play with premium options that don’t impact competitiveness but help offset hosting/server costs.

 

I’d really appreciate any feedback on the game:

Built using Cursor AI.  AI was necessary to create airline sim with this kind of depth and also to allow it to be free. The amount of human creativity and testing applied to the game was significant

This started around two years ago as a hobby project and has grown ever since with ups and downs during development. I just released a demo version so it can finally leave my machine and I would be super happy to get some feedback.
The demo is still a bit rough around the edges, and I'm planning to continue working on it. Let me know if you like it. Downloads are available for Windows & Linux (Mac is planned) on https://schdahle.itch.io/apron

I remember playing this game like a few years ago. The only thing that's changed now that i re logged back into my unfinished tutorial account with 1 plane is that there's now a built in livery painter. Im just kinda spamming emb 120s. I remember resetting a lot cuz i went into deep debts early on and randomly started losing stars

Any tips? Also any updates soon? (Professional)

Day 4 as of now. Dont wanna make the same mistakes again

I started the game back in 2024. 2025 January I stopped playing game because I'm in militiary service and when I come back I have -30b of money how I can fix it?

Hello,

i put together some random statistics about the top 500 players on the leaderboard.

sorry that some of the text is still in French—I think most of the charts should still be easy to understand.

a small note about the strategy distribution chart: it isn't very reliable because it's extremely difficult to infer a player's strategy from passenger statistics alone.
i couldn't access the players' accounts fleet's seats configuration, so I wasn't able to reliably distinguish between a full economy strategy and a mixed seating strategy.
the only distinction I could make with reasonable confidence was between passenger-focused and cargo-focused strategies, based on each player's fleet composition.

If you have ideas for other charts or statistics I could add, let me know!

Hi all,
just placed some SpaceJets on the market - having 4 more. If you are interested, let me know!
Cheers!

Pro-Mode / 5*

I am planning to put this one on every aircraft at my AMS hub
