    Yeah, that's pretty much it (given you have an extra airplane slot and/or the money to add one). It should be on the 1st vacant airport you access.

    No, you hit build, then you tap a starting airport for it. If you don't choose an airport it won't be built.

    Yeah, must have a bug. Just updated to the latest update. I would hit build, the 3 bucks would go, but nothing happened. Now, it gave me the option to choose the airport. Man, lost 9 bucks tho.l.

    Hey I'm just a bit confused about the layover thingy. When I take two people on a plane ( both of them want to go somewhere different)
    And drop one off, if I unload the other person it says layover. When I tap the layover sign it just goes and I can continue normally. If I keep a layover what happens? Is it bad or good? Are they just for keeping people at your airport so they don't leave?

    :) lolz

    A layover is simply someone you drop off at an airport that is not their destination, with the intention of taking them the rest of the way later, perhaps with a different plane. They don't pay you until they reach their final destination.

    Ouch! Sorry to hear that. :( were you able to finally make it? I've been fortunate enough to not encounter any major bugs as of yet. Latest OS, PP update, and refreshed RAM. That last part has eluded me to complete my Kangaroo-M (Body)...

    Layovers:
    Layovers are most useful when trying to get passengers/cargo across large distances from small airports to large. The best way to describe their usefulness is through example. Lets pretend you have paris(c3), new york(c3) and goose bay(c1). Also pretend you have a passenger who wants to go from paris to goose bay. Naturally you'd use one of your continental c3 aircraft to bring the passenger from paris to new york, but because that aircraft is a c3 it can't land in goose bay. This is where layovers come in to use. When the c3 aircraft hits new york you drop the person off there and they get layover next to their name. Then at new york you have a c1 aircraft pick up the passenger and take them to goose bay.

    note : c1 = class 1, c3 = class 3

    Hope that helps. Don't hit the x next to a layover's name unless you have no intention of delivering them to their destination because hitting the x 'deletes' them.

    Hahah. It says that when you close an airport, it gets rid of any layovers.

    Huh. I didn't see that. Ah well. I bought it again. Only cost about 200 coins.

    Dude it's a freemium game. I have easily earned over a hundred bux just playing. They have to earn money somehow. Want free parts, buy airports.

    I have found that hitting the X just makes them up for removal on the next job cycle. So if you change your mind before getting a new list, you can still take them!
