Create calm from chaos in a busy airport. Get your passengers to the correct destination before they freak out!!

The team at Airways Airlines needs help to keep their airport open! Previous management fled the country and left the company upside down. Step in and take charge to get it running smoothly. Pick up and drop off passengers to a growing number of destinations. Route planes carefully and don't leave anyone behind! The passengers get angry the longer they wait, so get them home before they freak out. However, there is help. Hire employees by choosing from a variety of fun characters. Lead the team to success.

Grow the airline by expanding to new cities. Keep up the fleet of planes to handle an increasing numbers of passengers. Renovate the terminal with seats, stores, and snacks to keep everyone happy. Decorate with plants and paintings to make it more inviting. Spread across the United Sates through 3 dynamic episodes. Perfect strategies with Free Play Mode and push limits with Survival Mode. Earn unlockables and achievements and set new records! Dive into a retro world with a hip soundtrack.
