About This Game

Four airline executives are competing for the same passengers, the same routes, and the same future. The player operates alongside Tina Cortez of Sunshine Airways, Siggi Sorglos of Falcon Lines, Igor Tuppolevsky of Phoenix Travel, and Mario Zucchero of Honey Airlines. Running a profitable airline means keeping aircraft maintained, buying new planes from either the expensive Airplane Agency or from the eccentric Mr. Schlauberger's museum stock, managing personnel, planning flights, and handling the financial reality of bank loans when the balance runs low. For those who prefer a less direct form of competition, sabotaging a rival's operation is also on the table.
