What im What I am doing is what mr.mysterious does...somewhat. I fill bux in each city, i send everything from the Americas to paris. I unload everything not in the americas and send back to london. For every job originating in eur, asia, and africa i send to london first and unload everything going to the Americas...and then send to paris unload all...and send back to eur, afr, and asia. Likewise to north amer, and s amer. What i was saying that would be best for you (IMO) is to unload in the closest class 3 city bux and event jobs for that nearby city and return empty...or even full to the original city or paired city. You can prob fill a seq or cyclone with jobs to completely fill and bux jobs to get 100 percent full in 3 refreshes.
Yes I am the one standing at 5700 jobs he just went crazy to 8000 last I checked, I think he is an outsider
Started bux sitting today around noon. Using 11 fully upgraded class 3 cities and paris as a central hub. Started with 53 bux, currently at 1601 with one more meet left before bed. Plan on exchanging at 25,000 to get to 40 slots. Then buy 40 Kangaroo M.
All the best penguin I have London open in addition to Paris and am running a twin central hub strategy. (All bux planes fly to London. Drop off event jobs in London and the rest in Paris. Then planes in Paris depart with specific city jobs to get 25%). BTW, see if you can comfortably bux-sit with 25 plane slots (will be tight if you are concurrently running class 1 events). If you find that you don't have enough planes, you don't have to wait until 40,000 to exchange. I exchanged at 25K bux, expanded to 3x (32 or 33) plane slots and it was a LOT easier to bux sit.
Not often I smile looking at Bloomberg news lol that's a Gus story I guess Kangaroo Route Turns Chinese With Flights to Guangzhou Travelers plying the Kangaroo Route between Australia and Europe have discovered the cheapest path goes through Guangzhou. China Southern Airlines Co. (1055) is undercutting Qantas Airways Ltd. (QAN) by as much as 34 percent on the cost of Sydney-to-London tickets and from April 1 will operate more flights to Europe than the Australian carrier. The Guangzhou, China-based airline said its ready to sacrifice profitability as it lures traffic from Singapore and Hong Kong. Chinas three biggest carriers, including Air China Ltd. (601111) and China Eastern Airlines Corp. (670), have tripled flights from Oceania to Europe over the past five years, while upgrading services. The route will provide experience needed for further expansion into North America and Europe as annual spending by Chinese tourists exceeds $100 billion. Qantas is fighting back with discounted fares to Asia. The sheer volumes of travelers mean that eventually China can be the most powerful transit country in the region, probably the world, Peter Harbison, executive chairman of CAPA Centre for Aviation, said by e-mail. They will be able to price very, very competitively. The shift is squeezing carriers on the route, which started in 1935 with a 12 1/2-day trip between London and Brisbane. Stopovers once included Brisbane, Darwin, Singapore, Bangkok, Calcutta, Karachi, Cairo, Rome and Frankfurt, according to Aussieairliners.org, giving rise to the trademarked Kangaroo Route nickname. Fare Comparison Revenue passenger kilometers, a measure of traffic, declined for ten months at Qantas and five at Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd. on reduced capacity between Europe and Oceania, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Cathay and Singapore Airlines Ltd. stand to lose from the Chinese carriers growth, said K Ajith, an aviation analyst at UOB Kay Hian Holdings Ltd. Transit passengers make up about 30 percent of traffic at Singapores Changi Airport, spokesman Ivan Tan said by e-mail. China Eastern shares rose as much as 5 percent, the most in almost two weeks, to HK$3.33 before trading at HK$3.26 as of 1:43 p.m. in Hong Kong. Air China fell 1.7 percent and China Southern rose 0.2 percent. Qantas shares rose 2 percent to close at A$1.745 in Sydney trading, while Cathay (293) fell 0.6 percent after reporting annual profit that beat analyst estimates and Singapore Air dropped 0.4 percent. Price Comparison China Southerns cheapest economy-class fare between Sydney and London for a two-week trip starting May 4 was A$1,442 on travel booking website webjet.com.au yesterday. The lowest price for a non-Chinese airline, on Malaysian Airline System Bhd. (MAS), was 19 percent more expensive at A$1,721. Emirates tickets started at A$1,896 while Singapore Airs was at A$1,940. The cheapest Qantas ticket was 51 percent more than China Southern, at A$2,180. Air China and China Eastern put an inch more leg room than Qantas in economy class while China Southern leased one of Sydney Airports most expensive billboards for three years and put massage chairs in first-class cabins. At the beginning of the operation we might lose some money, said Henry He, China Southerns managing director for Australia and New Zealand. The most important thing for us is experience. Chinese Spending China Southern has 42 weekly flights out of Australia. Qantas will reduce its service to 28 a week as part of a tie-up with Emirates. Every week, 74 flights travel through mainland China, up from 21 five years ago and compared with 98 each through Emirates Dubai hub and on Singapore Air (SIA)s network through Changi, according to a Dec. 20 report by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission. Cathay flies 70 times a week to Australia, said Dominic Perret, southwest Pacific operations general manager. Competition on Australia-to-Europe routes will probably intensify, said Andrew Orchard, an airline analyst at CIMB Group Holdings Bhd. Chinese tourists, who spent $105 billion overseas in 2012, are forecast to make 94 million trips this year, almost double the level in 2009, according to China Tourism Academy reports. Qantass Radar There is huge potential for routes to Australia, China Eastern said in a statement. It plans to deploy better aircraft and add flights to Melbourne and Sydney. Still, Chinese carriers service falls short, said Paul Sheridan, chief Asia consultant at Ascend Worldwide Ltd. First- class passengers get on-board showers on Emirates and sheepskin mattress covers on Qantass beds. Singapore Airs cabin crew train for 15 weeks. The Chinese carriers are on our radar, said Simon Hickey, head of Qantass international unit. The competition keeps us on our toes, Singapore Air spokesman Nicholas Ionides said by e-mail. China Southern flies five Airbus A380s and has ten Boeing 787 Dreamliners on order. Its recruited Australians as cabin crew and is setting up a school for elite stewards. If we want a good future, we should develop worldwide, He said. Napoleon said: if the soldier doesnt want to be a general, he wont be a good soldier.

My bet is on Sao Paulo for the next event. The reason? I've had 4bux jobs dropping like crazy for that city. Before the Mexico City event, it did the exact same thing. UPDATE! Move the fleet to BELEM! Bux jobs dropping like crazy for Lima, Rio, and Sao. So i decided to look at the map and see what was close...Belem, and guess what? A computer failure right now. Hedge your bets and thank me later!
Whoever (Android player?) is at #1 for Manchester may actually clear 10k jobs by the time the event ends! #1 Unknown .... 9,749 jobs Still plenty of time to punt 250 jobs to Manchester And Oamoam is breathing down his neck with 9,039 jobs Gus, you're slacking ...
