Airport Realistic

Your First Day

01Sign an AirlinePick from the offers. Each airline tells you exactly what it needs to fly in.
02Build GatesRemote stand, stairs or a full air bridge. See which aircraft fit before you spend a cent.
03Connect ItLay a taxiway from the runway to the stand. The hold lines go down for you.
04Fit It OutCheck-in, security, seats, toilets and food. Miss one and your passengers will let you know.
05Follow NextStuck? Next shows what's holding you back and takes you straight there.
06Stay On TimeEvery late flight has a reason. Find it, fix it.

How It Works

$MoneyAirlines pay to land and for every passenger. Shops, car parks, lounges and hangars pay rent. Staff, power and upkeep take it back.
⏱TimeEvery season is a year. Every year your buildings get older.
✈RunwaysEvery aircraft needs its own runway length. Build it short and the big jets stay away.
⇄StandsRun a big stand as one widebody gate or split it in two. Your call.
⬆UpgradesTake any building forward or back an era, or bring a worn one back to new.
☰ControlsDouble click to build. Right click to cancel. M to move, R to turn. Page Up and Down to change level.

Details

01Bridges That Have to FitGet the height or reach wrong and the cab won't meet the door. Your passengers end up walking the apron.
02Real AircraftFrom a Saab 340 to an A380. Every wingspan, length and door height is the real thing.
03Tight StandsSqueeze in one more gate and the wingtips clash. Leave too much room and you've wasted apron.
04Nothing Stays NewStains, patch repairs and old ducting pile up every year. Your shiny terminal won't stay shiny.
05Low Ceilings, Low RatingsPassengers notice a low ceiling and so do the airlines. Pick the height when you build. Changing it means knocking it down.
06Old Air-ConOld plant costs more to run and leaves people sweating.
071960s Kit Is SlowA 1960s check-in desk can't keep up with a modern kiosk. Same at security. The queue grows.
08Premium FadesA premium 1960s terminal was the best in town. By the 1980s it's just old.
09Heavy Pays MoreLanding fees go on take-off weight. Bring in a 747 and the till rings.
