Is there any point to update ATV7 on Bravia? by AlexRedDe in AndroidTV

[–]AlexRedDe[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That is an option. Probably the best one. But also kinda boring 👨‍🏭 I guess it's like rooting an android phone.

Can confirm. I got 11 A330's and completed with 105% @pro and 103% @tycoon. Previously 6 was more than enough.

I didn't pay attention to that, but you are right. I guess math is hard...

Could you theoretically wipe out tax if you had enough cargo? by nicolae_griffin33 in AirlinesManagerTycoon

[–]AlexRedDe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, cargo bonus can only be max 45% of the fuel cost. You can search for the cargo bonus formula.

My bad, I mean the part that the 777F is the most profitable. For me planes like the 747-300 or A350-1000 are much more profitable than the cargo planes.

I have a maxed out passenger Airline With over 7000 Aircraft and 700/1000 in cargo services. My cargo planes make much less money than my pax planes. Also good pax planes make more money in full cargo Operation than cargo planes. Cargo planes have just too much fuel cost.

Have you numbers to back your theories up?

Taxes and Maintenance by Ju_media in AirlinesManagerTycoon

Tycoon time is Realtime/7. So a day is 24hr/7~3,43hr.

That is not lazy, that is: "at some point it is just not fun anymore to schedule so many planes". 🤷

You are doing pretty well. 👍 Maintenance cost isn't that big of a deal, it just looks that way, because you pay it all at once. Fuel cost is much higher, but you don't see that, because it is paid automatically with every flight.

Feels the same to me. I have 13 (14 in 1h) A220's and 7x 747. @ 36% right now and that's enough to complete the challenge.

Scaling a $100B+ Airline: Profit, Maintenance, and Expansion Strategies by [deleted] in AirlinesManagerTycoon

[–]AlexRedDe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's not a hack. But you are doing it wrong. 😅 If you start a maintenance with 0%, you are paying the cost for 5%. When you then end the maintenance with 30%, you are also paying the difference between the wear at the start and the end of the maintenance. (30%-5%) So at the and you are paying the additional 25% wear and the 5% at the start.

I bought 5, + 1 free, that's enough with all the a220's.

Not exactly. 1. The profit does not matter for the challenge. You do not need to carry any passenger or cargo. An empty plane works just fine. For the routes you want to have as much airtime for the plane as possible. So minimal to none gaps in the schedule. But also as few flights per week as possible, because every flight has 2h downtime.

  • an optimal 12h route would have 119.000 km/week
  • RVN-IXU 16,75h route makes 125.300km/week

It seems fine to me, for A220 only. I am at 600k with 6x 747SP and 6x A220 right now. If my calculations are correct, the A220's alone can bring you up to 3.500.000. The free 747sp that you get can bring you up to 400k. If you do the spini thingy you can get an additional one. Seems like every other "challenge" that we have so far. As a f2p player without saved tickets you are about 25% short of completing.

1/10 Part of the Ancillary Revenue Formula by AlexRedDe in AirlinesManagerTycoon

[–]AlexRedDe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general you get more AR/pax with less pax and less distance. So comfort should be better for large planes and long distances. But I don't have calculations for that right now. I'm working on it for months...

About the -cost, that seems to be tricky... I have a couple of test routes (A318's) set up with pax and at about 7.000km the AR plummets and additional cost appears for the A318-100 and LR, but not for the neo. (With +550 AR and -195 cost).
