SOME TIPS

1. Use Your Time Wisely

Airport Simulator is an airport management game, and along with the term “management” comes the importance of managing your time wisely. Each contract, delivery and construction work requires a set amount of time to complete. After setting each of them up, you are left with either decorating the airport while waiting for money icons to pop up for collection or stepping away from the game to deal with any real-life responsibilities. However, there are many aspects of the game, such as time conversions, time skips, and simulation limits that you need to be aware of to plan your game time. 

2. Familiarize Yourself with the Contracts Page

Scheduling flight contracts from various airline companies is the most important task you need to do to keep your business afloat. But just like in any contract you’ve been offered in real life, you must first review the terms and requirements for each one. But before we tackle those proposals, let’s first review the information displayed on the contracts page.

On the contracts page, you will see basic information regarding the available contract proposals. They have columns that display information for Airlines, Total Reward, Time, Aircraft, Flight, and Requirements & Services. Clicking the headers of these columns will automatically rearrange these proposals by category.

3. Manage Your Contracts

To be a successful Airport Manager or Tycoon, you need to review your contracts with a discerning eye and manage them efficiently. At the start of the game, you can only sign up for two contracts at a time. You must place them in your schedule before you can sign more. 

Aside from this, there’s also a limit to how many contracts you can schedule all in all. It’s important to pay attention to different aspects of the contracts, especially the time slots so you don’t accidentally sign a contract you cannot schedule yet.

4. Plan Your Flight Schedule for 2 Weeks

You can plan for up to 2 weeks of your schedule: the current week and the next week. You can only review your schedule one week into the future and it is only after every Sunday night that the new week will be available for scheduling. 

One thing you need to remember is that while you cannot schedule flights after the time has passed, you can still slip in flights on the current day as long as the yellow line has not passed it yet.
