About this game

One jet and one home city. What your small 1995 airline becomes half a century later is up to you. A deep airline management sim in the tradition of classic airline strategy games.

■ Real-time management, no waiting
Time flows in real time and every landing pays. Pause or play at 2× whenever you like, and your vault keeps earning while you're away.

■ Grow your hub airport
Seoul, Tokyo, London, New York, Singapore, São Paulo… any of 250 cities can be your home. Build gates and runways and watch your airport grow, ready for bigger jets. Once you're big, open a second hub on another continent.

■ Routes are strategy
Design your network on a real world map. Distance decides which aircraft you need, and every city has its own mix of business, leisure and cargo demand. Tap a city to launch a route in one go, and fine-tune fares and cabin service whenever you want.

■ The industry ladder
From local carriers to five rival airlines, everyone is ranked by seats. Get rewarded each time you pass the airline above you, and buy out rivals you lead by a mile. Every rival has a CEO with their own playbook — and the occasional price war.

■ Your secretary Mina and 31 missions
Mina always tells you the one thing to do next. Clear missions across five chapters and grow a tiny regional airline into the world's number one. Every year-end, your airline makes the front page.

■ Your airline, your colors
Name your company and pick a brand color — your HQ and every route on the map wear it.

■ Daily tasks and annual contracts
A 7-day login streak, three fresh missions every day and a contract to finish within four quarters always give you a next goal. As your company grows, leasing, the used market, branch offices and more open up one by one.

■ 110 real aircraft, changing with the times
737, 747, 777, 787, A320, A330, A350, A380, ATR, CRJ, E-Jets, all the way to the C919 and MC-21. Range, fuel burn and maintenance all differ; as eras pass, old types are discontinued and new ones arrive. Lease or buy used to stretch your cash.

■ Cargo business
Enter the freight market with 18 freighters — 747F, 777F, MD-11F and more — linking industrial cities. When tourism collapses, logistics keeps flying.

■ Local carriers and branch offices
Partner with or acquire local airlines in each city to grow your share, and as you grow, open branches and second hubs on other continents.

■ Disruptions and city investments
Fuel spikes, strikes, unrest and airport closures shake the board. Fifteen kinds of city investment grow demand and cut risk.

■ Cabins and slots
Balance First, Business and Economy per route, and play negotiation cards to win airport slots.

■ Five eras
From the dawn of globalization in 1995 through the low-cost carrier wars and beyond. Each era sets goals; meet them to earn Legacy and start your next run stronger.
