Airline Empires allows you to run airlines in a variety of "Worlds" and compete with Real World people!
 +
- Good First Tips:<br/>
 +
1. Look at the Date of the World - This will determine what planes you can use etc.<br/>
 +
2. Don't use a Rude/Offensive Airline Name - Else it will be deleted<br/>
 +
3. Choose a Plane which will be suitable for your airport - For example, using an A320 at a Tiny Airport is Impractical and maybe Impossible<br/>
 +
4. Choose a Base with little competition if it is your first airline. Making money will be easier that way!<br/>

== What next? ==
+
-
To start a new airline - or access your existing airlines - go the to [http://www.airlineempires.org/index.php?app=ae My Airlines page]. Each playable world will be listed below with summary information on current number of airlines, progress in the game, etc.  Simply enter the name of your desired new airline in the provided textbox and click "Enter World".
+
-
 
+
-
Airline creation will take you step by step through establishing your airline, including selection of aeroplanes as shown above and location of your initial gate agreements. Note that the textbox next to the airports dropdown acts as a filter and not a direct selection of your desired airport, so please ensure that an airport is selected in the dropdown before proceeding.
+
-
Congratulations! You have launched your new airline.  Now proceed to investigate your first route by leasing a gate at another airport (see the [[Leasing gates]] section).
+
Of course we also give you $7,500,000 to begin your airline operations! You are now the proud CEO of your airline.
-
Having started your airline, your first act of CEO is to manage your costs. Of note, by negotiating leases with aeroplane manufacturers and with airports, you have created on-going monthly liabilities, so spend your initial cash wisely.
