Order Books Live for New Worlds

As we go into the 16th Year of Airline Mogul we would like to thank our community who play, manage and support the game. This year we launched the long awaited order books feature across a number of special worlds.

Now the order books feature will be available as an option to all new worlds. At no additional cost you are welcome to play with legacy aircraft ordering settings or use the order books feature to better pace the game and add a new dynamic to your strategies.

In honor of the holidays and the ability to create new worlds with order books we are giving 25% off token packages through the end of the year. We would also like to offer one lucky player a free private world, anyone who buys tokens before the end of the year will automatically entered in the competition.

Thanks for your continued support and we wish you all the best in 2022.

Scheduled Downtime 8th of May 2021

Saturday, the 8th of May we will have some scheduled downtime for Airline Mogul. During this time we will be deploying some new features that will be available in a curated world to be announced later.

The downtime is expected to last a couple of hours and the game will be paused during this time. Thank you for your patience.

Airline Mogul Celebrates 15 Years

Today, December 23rd marks the 15th year of Airline Mogul! Thanks to everyone who has supported the game over the years and helped get us this far.

2020 has been quite a year, and thankfully at AM we found some time to deliver long awaited enhancements and features. With people having more free time, many old players came back and new players found us.

We look forward to continuing to develop the game further in the coming year, building on the order of what we released this year. So whether you relaxing this holiday season with good books or some Airline Mogul time, we hope you can enjoy some of the new features like maintenance overhaul, flight time improvements, staffing improvements and some new to leasing options.

Take care and have a great 2021!

P.S. AM has been a good kid this year, watch out for a festive Easter Egg on the site.  :)

Airline Mogul Resumes

After the scheduled four hour downtime earlier today, April 19th the game is back online and running as expected.

The downtime helped with updates to the servers as well as software upgrades and some game enhancements. Further details on the new features will be detailed in due course.

Thanks for your patience and let us know if you encounter any issues through Discord, the Forum or email.

Airline Mogul Downtime

The game is going to be down for a period of 4 hours, this Sunday April 19th between 14:00 and 18:00 game server time (Central European time).

Airline Mogul Celebrates 10 Years

On the 23rd of December 2005, a simple interface for Airline Mogul was revealed to a small group of aviation fans. It was the building block for what Airline Mogul has grown to become over the years. Today marks the beginning of the 10th year of Airline Mogul.

A lot has changed in the game during that time, and we hope that many things will continue to change in the year ahead. We have been working on enhancements that will be released over the coming months that will bring the game into a new era. 

Thanks to all those who have played and supported the game over the past 10 years!

Airline Mogul Celebrates 50,000 Users!

Airline Mogul Celebrates 50,000 Users!

After recently passing its 6th Birthday, the celebrations were kept quiet as the milestone of 50,000 registered users was fast approaching. And after those six short years the milestone has arrived! The game first started on the 23rd of December 2005 with a small community of airline game fans who wanted to see a fresh approach to the genre. Since then it has steadily been expanded due to the hard work and determination of Airline Mogul's voluntary staff, the very many users over the years and those who have helped keep Airline Mogul running by supporting it with paid tokens. 

Progress on development of the game has always been at a steady pace, building a reliable game for everyone to enjoy, one of the biggest achievements of the game to date is the launch of the ever popular private worlds. Allowing users to play with their friends, co-workers, classmates, and other AM players has been a hugely successful addition to the game and continues to evolve to this day.

As part of these celebrations the staff at Airline Mogul decided to start it off by sharing a massive 2,000,000 tokens! Each existing user will receive approximately 40 free tokens to their account in the next 24 hours to allow them to join a new world, or add one of those ever useful premium features. 

We will also improve the Aircraft Search feature to allow some greater functionality, and improve the visuals of the game by including some aircraft photos. Making a choice about an aircraft has never been easier, and with deeper integration with the aircraft market, it will make it easier and faster than ever to add a new aircraft to fleets. To start of 2012 we also released the long-awaited Reduce Terminal feature, and as the year progresses we aim to release Hotswap, a new Statistics Centre and some updates to the Maintenance of aircraft. Hotswap is currently under test and is expected to be released very soon.

Airline Mogul has always been reliant on the free time of the members of the community to contribute, we add to our staff pool occasionally and are ever grateful for all the work past and present players and staff have done for the game. As a recognition of this community spirit around the game, we are going to try something a little bit different. The first scenario based game will be created in the next 72 hours, where a group of only 50 users can join a pre-configured airline and work towards one of three goals. This exciting and challenging world will provide a new experience for those that have played Airline Mogul many times before and promises to bring a new dynamic to the game. In order to make it that bit more competitive we are also offering a prize of either a €25 voucher for Amazon or €45 worth of Paid Tokens. Those coming second and third will also have their pick of AM prizes. 

So after reaching this first significant milestone I hope you will join with us in celebrating the achievement. We would like to thank you for playing Airline Mogul over these years and being a part of it. We look forward to what our 6th year brings and we hope you will get some fun out of it too.

25% Off Paid Tokens - Pending VAT Rise

On the 1st of January 2012 the rate of VAT applied to Paid Tokens packages will increase from 21% to 23%. As a measure to ensure people can make the most of paid tokens before the VAT increases we are launching 25% off all token packages, for all customers until the 12th of December 2011!

Go to the purchase tokens page to buy your discounted tokens now.

New Message Center Launched!

Admittedly, it's not the moment you've all been waiting for. We know that, and we're truly sorry. 

However, we've done our best to ease the wait for big and important features like hotswapping by releasing our very own, brand new Message Center! This project has been in the pipeline for over 2,5 years now, so we felt it was time to bring you something new. And new it is.

The new message center brings a fresh look to Airline Mogul, and we sincerely hope that you like the new feature.

For more details, please visit the forum thread.

Game Survey now available

From time to time we survey Airline Mogul users for their feedback and experiences to date in a way that we cannot by getting individual comments via the forum and other sources. This year we are offering a free private world for users as an incentive to complete the survey. This offer is limited to 400 free tokens.

Please take a few moments to answer the 10 questions, we have tried to keep it short and to the point.

5th Birthday sale

As you may have seen already, today is Airline Mogul's 5th Birthday, and to mark this occasion we are offering a 5 day sale of 25% off all our paid token packages.

As one of our traditions, our voluntary staff would like to have a few days off during the holiday season. Between 23rd Dec and 27th Dec (both inclusively), we might not be able to respond to support emails within our usual 24 hour time-frame. Please be patient if you have to email us during this period for whatever reasons (or no reason at all ). We will most definitely get back to you.

Have a fun and safe holiday. If you drink, don't drive. Also watch out for a new public world that could be launch very soon.

5th birthday of Airline Mogul & holiday arrangements

Happy Birthday Airline Mogul!

As of 23rd Dec 2010, AM is officially 5 years young. That is right... after 5 years, we are still young and dynamic. We are young because you are playful and energetic. We are dynamic because of your support, your feedback, and your innovative ideas. At this time, we would like to express our sincere appreciation to your contribution to this game and its community. In the coming year, we will strive to continue our stellar services consistently. We also hope to launch some popular new features in the near future.

Gates Improvements

We are delighted to announce the improvement of the gates pages. This improvement has come based on user feedback as well as additional feature implementation. What you can look forward to now is the ability to see City and State names for all airports in the database where these are available.

We have also taken the time to re-design the header on each gates page to better communicate the base system in Airline Mogul. It should be much easier now to identify how many bases you can create and the link between Home bases and Foreign bases.

The importance of locating airports using a variety of methods is also supported. You can now view airports by their IATA or ICAO code by using the search box on the top right of each page, or click on a City, State or Country name or flag to view airports in that area. We have also added the functionality to provide "Wildcard" searching with ICAO codes. A search for EI* will return all airports in Ireland for example, since every Irish airport is prefixed with EI in its ICAO code.

Please take a few moments to familarise yourself with the updated pages and hopefully you will be able to make full use of the improvements we have made.

To celebrate the Eurovision Final 2010 in Oslo, Norway, this weekend Airline Mogul is offering its users a unique opportunity to benefit from their own country competition. On Monday the 31st of May the score of sales for May per country will be calculated, and any customers from the top country will recieve an additional 25% tokens extra free! To keep track of how the rankings are going we have compiled a list of top ten countries so far, and unlike the Eurovision you do not need to be in one of the competing countries for the song contest.

Token Sale & 4th Birthday of Airline Mogul

As one of the biggest holiday periods of the year is approaching us, this year we are celebrating the 4th Birthday of Airline Mogul a little early, (23rd of December). For the next 12 days there will be a 50% sale on the Token Packages available on Airline Mogul. This also coincides with the fast approaching 30,000 users mark.

We hope that throughout 2010 we can release a number of currently paused development projects. This is mainly due in part to other commitments of our voluntary staff.

There will also be no support available from 00:00 (GMT) 23rd of December to 00:00 (GMT) 27th of December. During this time support emails may not be answered.

We would like to thank you all for your continuing support and we hope you all enjoy the weeks ahead and we look forward to 2010, the 4th Year of Airline Mogul.

Additional Tokens now available on all Token Packages

It has been decided to increase the number of tokens available in each paid token package. In order to deliver greater value, each paid token package whose value is €10 or less has received an average 50% increase, while all remaining packages have received an average of 20% increase.

This change is effective immediately, and has been applied retrospectively to the 27th of December.

The Airline Mogul staff would like to wish each of you a very happy and prosperous 2009. There will also be additional features and announcements throughout the coming year from the staff.

December Survey

Increase in VAT for European Customers

Due to the recent Irish Budget for 2009, effective, the 1st of December 2008, there will be an increase in the rate of VAT (Value Added Tax) charged on Tokens sold to European Customers. This will increase from 21.0% to 21.5%. We advise that if you are planning to purchase tokens, to do so before this date.

There is no expected reduction in the near future for VAT.

In-Game Manual

Airline Mogul now has its very own, absolutely unique in-game manual. Designed to function alongside the wiki, the in-game manual will give you the information you need to quickly become acquainted with the many features AM has to offer.

You can turn on, or off, the manual in the admin page, on the right-bottom side. When you register a new account, it will be automatically activated. Also, please note that we don't have information on every page yet. We're working on it as you read this, so quite soon, everyone will be able to learn to play AM within an hour.

View Airport Updates

The View Airport page has been updated to incorporate a number of new features. Most importantly, all sections of the page can be expanded or collapsed as you wish, and you can save your preferences as well so you don't have to click some buttons each time you visit the page again.

Also, as a way of being able to boast about your airline's market share and proving it with a graph, we have added a market share pie chart, as you've probably seen on the View Routes page before. It's fully functional, it shows what it needs to show and it's green, so it's probably cool. Have fun with the new features, and don't forget to let us know if it doesn't work for you.

Paid Tokens Update

Over the past two weeks, there were a number of changes made to the paid tokens packages. These involve an added €3 "top up" package, along with packages from €30-45 to support full world creation.

Login Re-Opens for 24 hours of testing

We are happy to re-open login, and allow users to experience the fresh looking Airline Mogul. It has been in the pipeline for over a year, when myself (StephenM) asked a member of staff to start work on an interm design, with a view to create a totally new design. This started with a new logo, then the change to the green design. Now we have this wonderful design that replicates the modern developments in website design.

On a second note, the Aircraft Market has been completely re-worked with 10 times the previous code, to allow for greater convenience and features for users. There will be a number of extra updates for this feature soon.

Finally, the long awaited launch of Pivate Worlds. These allow you to create a world that you want, from a selection of Countries (Greater than 50 airports) or Continents. Following on you also get to choose a map from a pre-defined selection.

As we are opening to publicly test features, we may have to close login at any time to fix major errors. We hope that within the next day or two, all bugs will have been resolved and normal gameplay can continue.

Thank you for your patience.

Scheduled Downtime - Saturday 4th of October 2008

There will be a period of downtime on Saturday the 4th of October 2008 between 13:00 UTC and 15:00 UTC approximately. During this time the website will not be available, and a placeholder page will be shown instead.

During this time we will be implementing 4 new items/features, and will be doing some initial testing to ensure that everything works correctly in the public area. We have spent significant time testing these features, but do not guarantee a bug free launch.

Just to stem some rumors, Aircraft Hotswap and Multi Route Edit wont be included in this release. We will have 2 major releases, one I have already discussed and finally one that has been suggested a number of times.

And Downtime Again

General Updates

Finally you can now purchase tokens, these are available from when you login.
There will be a number of major updates due to be released in the next week, watch the forums for updates.

10,000 Registered Players!

We are very happy to announce that Airline Mogul has reached its 10,000th currently registered player. This comes after the biggest change to the game has been implemented, Multiworlds. It has taken just over 2 and a half years of dedication by Airline Mogul staff, and a supportive user base. We look forward to bringing more features to new players in the future.

Survey Time

The latest Airline Mogul survey is now available to be taken. Here you can express your views on the recent Multiworlds launch along with a few other items we are interested in hearing about.

Please take a few moments to take the survey, as it helps us get an idea what people want as a whole.

Updates Come With Drawbacks

During testing of updated administration systems for Multiworlds there was a fault with user details. We are immediately restoring 8,000 user details using database backups. However about 200 recently registered users will have to contact us for their details to be rectified. (This means all users registered after Multiworlds Launch)

Update

After a previous error, we have re-opened Login. This error has effected World #3 and users that registered on Airline Mogul after the Multiworlds Launch. If you registered at AM after the launch of Multiworlds, please notify Staff Email using the email address you registered with. Note that most of the individual airline information is not affected by the database error.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Birthday Once Again

To co-inside with the 2nd Birthday of Airline Mogul we have decided to organise a reset for the 22nd of December. This will mean the new round will start on the 23rd of December, 2 years since Airline Mogul first opened. This is to be done for a variety of reasons, people have said the game has gotten saturated and would like a fresh start. This next game round will be a 5 game year round.

The reset will allow the first stage of Multiworlds to be released. In this we will introduce the following;

• An activation email for all users to cut down on multiple account issues
• Provide more information on registering about the steps to starting in Airline Mogul, along with details of when to login
• Allow the next stage of Multiworlds to begin.
• Allow for several adjustments designed to slow the game pace down.

The game will be reset and to a date not yet decided. We will use the date from the poll on this issue located here.

Thanks
