SynopsisAs the CEO of your own airline, it can be tricky to balance budgets, expenses, maintenance, varying weather conditions and of course, passengers. Yet, you rise to the challenge every day in your quest to build a reputable, memorable and profitable airline in a competitive business environment. Whether your fleet includes luxury jets for a small group of wealthy patrons or economical planes that can transport the population of a small city, your goal is simple — make everyone happy while making your profits larger. Do you have what it takes to become a top Airline Tycoon?Take to the skies and become king or queen of your own fleet of flights in Airline Tycoon 2. Grow a modern airline from a run-down carrier to a well-known, global company that passengers beg to fly. Handle massive passenger volumes, deal with realistic travel conditions and experience real-world airports from Moscow to Caracas. Build your own planes with the in-game editor that allows you to inexpensively craft units that fly loads of passengers, or spoil your elite clientele with luxurious jets. Play as one of four avatars, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Put your management skills to the test by scheduling flight plans, coordinating arrivals and departures and balancing income and expenses. Experience random events, including a special flight for the Pope, dealing with people in civil unrest at a global hotspot and more, that allow you to grow your reputation — and your profits. It's time to take flight and see if your management skills will help your airline soar.
