From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The game was released in 2013 on the Internet as a sequel to the original Airlines Manager.

Gameplay

[edit]

The game features most well-known aircraft models, such as the Airbus A380 or the Boeing 747-400, as well as 2,600 airports including Paris Charles de Gaulle and New York John F. Kennedy Airport.[2][3]

At the beginning, the player starts with $300,000,000, and the goal is to own as many airline routes, aircraft, and generate as much revenue as possible to climb the leaderboard.

In the classic mode, in-game time progresses in real time, mirroring real-world duration.[3]

In the accelerated mode, players earn money faster, deliveries are quicker, but the duration is limited to one month, unlike the endless classic mode.[4]

As the game progresses, the player can unlock features such as cargo aircraft or various services that enhance the company's reputation.

Legacy

[edit]

The game is developed in France. It is recognized in several countries, including by the IATA, which recommends the game to economics students preparing for a future in the aviation industry.[5]

It has also been presented with great success at the Paris Air Show and at the Paris Games Week.[6] [7] [8] Initially, the game gathered only 100,000 players.[6] By 2018, it had over 1.3 million active accounts.[3]
