New aircrafts and schedules issues

Hi there,

Just joined AirlineSim yesterday…

I have started my airline, and i’m based in Billund, Denmark (BLL). I started out buying a J41 aircraft and created a schedule for that aircraft. Then i’ve spend this afternoon, i getting 3 more aircrafts to the company, and made some schedules. I did book a transfer flight for every aircraft, and 2 of them have already arrived to the base. However, those are not going to fly until tomorrow, but i did assign them a schedule which has flights this evening. But they won’t start flying until tomorrow evening, and i do have flights tomorrow morning for them…

Does it takes 24 hours, before the aircraft can fly their schedule, or what did i do wrong?

Thank you in advance!

Morten

Hi Morten,

even if you activate a flight schedule "without delay". It will take 24 hours before the first flight takes off.

If your plane started flying straight away, passengers would have no time to book a ticket and your plane would fly empty :wink:

Hi Jan

Yes, when you say that, that makes actually very much sense. :rolleyes:

Thanks for your answer!

Just one quick question again.

Does the demand at an airport increase over time?

Let’s say i will make hub at an airport with a demand rating of 1. Will this increase, and make the airport more attractive when i set up more flights to/from that airport?

No, the demand doesn´t increase. But you will have transfer passengers at your hub. They are travelling e.g. from airport A via your hub B to airport C.

Plus you also get passengers from the ground network
