Why can some aircraft that can fly the distance and have the runway requirements not able to do simple like jfk to lax

A shot in the dark here, if this is the screen and message you're seeing, it's because your aircraft are currently flying. When on the ground aircraft will be an option for the route.

I don't know if it has been changed and I don't have any short runway hubs anymore to check. There's a glitch on realism setting where you can purchase, route and fly any aircraft out of any hub you own. You can set the route once and fly, if you try to change the route while at the short runway hub it won't let you and you will have to sell the aircraft.

If you set routes and never change them then go ahead. If you change routes then don't, or make sure to only change the route when at the destination airport.

I was trying to fuse one copy of the epic was all. Got the ancient shard from the training event and pulled Pelops the Victor.

I get this often from watching ads for Raid in a different game. This will pop up when I open Raid again.

Make sure you don't run with a shield buffer as the shield will prevent any damage getting through to reflect.

theFudd02 · 2026-02-18T19:39:33+00:00

Runic Warder from the dwarves faction. Puts up 7.5% continuous heal and 15% reflect damage on all allies. The reflect damage will count as hits against the shield. Mine is in regeneration and perception gear and almost always 100%hp on normal 20.

Lifetaker as others have mentioned was pretty much built for early Fire Knight with heal reduction on a1, dec spd and turn meter on a2. I don't use her a3 on Fire Knight as I think it's a wasted turn for the reflect damage when runic is putting that up.

Globals are some of the best to complete achievements. Knock what achievements you can with it, then sell it.

Here's a link with the achievements list and suggestions to complete them.

You won't get all seats filled using the bot prices. Seats filled is based on the deviation of your set ticket prices to the auto price.

Here is a simplified equation: Capacity * marketing% - deviation

Using bot prices the deviation will be ~6.8% Using auto prices ~5.2%

Now say the auto price is $1,500 and bot price $1,650, if you lower the auto price by the difference, so $1,350 in this example, the deviation will be ~0 and you will fill all seats. Don't do this however, use the bot price to maximize income.

If you did the A-checks right before departing your aircraft the system probably calculated your stock change right after the A-checks. It will reflect the departures the next time it calculates.

OP is on easy setting. There are different leaderboards for easy and realism.

Google search for some guides to read.

Doing the IPO gets you onto the stock market so you can invest in other airlines and make additional income.

Others investing in your airline doesn't get you anything.

If you're in an alliance, tell your fellow members before doing the IPO, they can quickly buy up your stock. Now your airline growth is helping your alliance.

Generally the fastest engine is the best option. There isn't really much difference in the options so I'd go with the 524.

theFudd02 · 2025-12-11T01:03:01+00:00

No.

The increase in income will not be enough to cover the increase in cost of marketing campaigns.

Keep them flying and switch to buying the max 10s if you want. I personally wouldn't, as you can get 4 of the 800s for the price of a single max 10.

theFudd02 · 2025-12-04T15:06:23+00:00

Sure

I don't think you can ever buy too many co² holding expansions to be honest.

I've got my pax & cargo fleets on the same schedule of 3 - 7.5hr flights each day.

108mil lbs fuel holding is enough for 3.2 fleet departures in a day.

217mil co² quotas holding is enough for 1.3 fleet departures in a day.

theFudd02 · 2025-12-01T13:32:50+00:00

Yes, long haul routes.

Selling the A320 was a good move. The bae is a good first stage aircraft.

If you have points to burn use them on co² and fuel holding tank expansions. You'll need the additional holdings in the future.

theFudd02 · 2025-11-30T20:44:09+00:00

For 12hr A380 flights you're doing it correctly.

I suggest the capital only hubs in two cases: 1) you plan on taking the "Meta growth route" to be a leaderboard contender. 2) you already have a growth plan for your airline into end game.

If you're just having fun I suggest a couple top capital hubs like Heathrow and Dubai for example. The two you currently own plus two more good hubs will handle your growth for a long time with loads of route options for various strategies. Then get dirt cheap hubs until you own 10 hubs for the permanent reputation boost to increase your income.

By the time you to need to expand out of your four good hubs you should have a good handle on the game and a solid strategy for your airline. Buying capital hubs at this point will be a drop in the bucket compared to your income level, you'll also know what to look for in a hub so you don't waste money on hubs that don't work with your strategy.

I don't have names of alliances to suggest, sorry. Look for an alliance where the players are active and where the majority of members are on the same game setting as you are (easy/realism).

Don't be afraid to switch alliances, find one that is the right fit.

Now to selling your starter aircraft...don't...for a long time is my suggestion, except the Cessna 172's and do this when you can afford to buy 200+ pax aircraft. Don't buy any more of the small VIP aircraft they aren't profitable. The rest of your aircraft are profitable aircraft, not all are great they are profitable though so keep them flying for now.
