Hi guys,
I’ve been playing AS for a few years now but I still struggle in certain aspects of the game. I was looking for a topic regarding this subject, but couldn’t find it - if you do know any that can help me, I would appreciate if you could share it below.
I do know the basics, and I can in fact make a successful company, but only in Brazil. I mean, I’m brazilian and it’s really easy to tie the knots and identify the best routes in my country but when it comes to exploring and trying new opportunities, in other contries, I tend to always fail.
So far, I have tried to Open the Country tab and identify the highest ranked airports nearby, also, google for some famous routes, and also, use common sense on countries I have some knowledge of. Unsucessfuly.
I would appreciate if other players could help me with some light in this question. Any suggestions on how to try new approaches and identify possibly successful routes are welcome.
Regards!

Maybe you could try to use Wikipedia(English Version) to find the busiest routes of an airport.
In AS there is barely any need to know anything about the market, you will learn as you go. When starting out in a foreign country just look at demand and competition. Start out with a couple of Ejets, SSJs or CRJs and send them ones or twice daily to the largest domestic and close by international destinations. In 3 days you will see where the demand is. Then just add more flights to where you are full and remove flights to where you have bad loads.
Ones you have saturated your initial routes then start thinking about connections. Arrange your flights in a wave pattern and repeat the scouting process again. Finally, you will have tried out every sensible short haul route and now with a bigger network you can start trying out medium and long haul routes in exactly the same way. Keep and expand what works and delete what does not work.
