    I don't get it. How do you mean that?("all passengers/cargo to the same destination bonus")

    What exactly does the Calgary place do?

    Its fairly close to my West Coast airports but I dont want to spend 6,000 if the event doesnt give you anything.

    Does upgrading the range, weight, and speed of a plane make it class 2? And if you have no airport to land it in, does it go to the hangar? And what would be an airport that allows you to land Class 2?

    Try it out. Take a plane with 2 capacity. Put two jobs on that both go to the same place, you'll see you get a 25% bonus to the coins.

    Not quite, just been working at it while at work all day. I'm currently lvl 12 with 15 planes, so that helps. I did have all of the airports just around Calgary occupied but have since closed them and only have a few. I was making shorth trips between them and Calgary at the time. Now I just make trips there periodically.

    I've heard that you can advertise airports for more coins...is this true? If so, how do you do this?
    Edit: Figured it out.

    Not the case. I've been playing for more than a day now and still no statistics.

    Maybe it'll update soon. For example, the Flight crew # of jobs needs time to update, maybe the chart does too.

    I got a line on that screen after the first day or so.

    No.
    N/A.
    A class 2 airport - blue dots.

    It's just an airport, the same as the others, but the global event is taking place there currently.

    No it doesn't.

    I love M planes. Especially when I drop them in big cities (just got Tokyo) and they can get ALL THE BONUS

    Okay, I may be wrong. But I had the same problem on the first day and this morning the stats suddenly looked different.

    I've played more than 300 iOS games, and have never really been tempted to use IAP. I have no problem paying any amount to try out a game, but IAP just bothers me, I hate the idea at its core. This however is something different, this is the first game I've felt comfortable purchasing items in-game. The amount of enjoyment I am getting from pocket planes feels almost criminal without paying something.

    Right on Nimblebit

    It seems like NimbleBit learned some tricks from KairoSoft. The depth of things in comparison to Tiny Tower is much better. Stats, upgrades and graphs on planes, airports... It just plays a lot more like a KairoSoft title than a NB title.

    I just purchased LA yesterday. It just give you more jobs. Great for a plane that can pick up multiple jobs, but i think its too early to get it when my best plane can only pick 3 at a times and does not do a multiplier bonus...

    All planes that pick up 2 or more get a multiplier bonus if all the people/cargo are going to the same place.

    Against my better judgement I put a Navigator-M on the Calgary-Saskatoon route... I'm on the board now! Pretty annoyed at half my jobs in Tokyo wanting to go to Canada tho :(

    Huh. My montreal is in a snow storm too. Are "regular" (non-flight-crew) events the same for everyone?
