About the Game

Fly from Tokyo to LA, the short way.

Build your dream airline network on a custom-made globe of the Earth as you listen along to the game's original music. Or if you want, you can even play on terraformed Mars!

Compete with other airlines.

Advertise, construct hotels or steal concourses at airports to gain the upper hand against your competitors. Then, kick them out of your hub airports or purchase them outright in a hostile takeover.

Hub-and-spoke or point-to-point?

You decide. You can centralize your network to build a hub or utilize the game's flexibility to send your planes on long multi-city cycles.

Airports are ever-evolving.

At the start of the game they can spawn with random bonuses, and as the game continues you must make decisions such as building hubs, lounges and more in order to optimize your network.

Choose your flyer.

Play as the luxurious Flamingo, which receives bonus income from all lounges. Soar further than others with the Eagle, who gets a boost to plane range. Play as the Crow, Gull, Ostrich or more...all with their own unique bonuses.

Play with your friends.

Invite or join your friends through Steam and build a global airline network together.
