^ AEROBIZ: A GLOBAL mVNOm

AEROBE: A GLOBAL NETWORK

YOUR COMPETITION

In the latter half of the 20th century, airline competition
has intensified year by year, Each airline is extending its
air routes and making efforts to appeal to new customers.
The airlines all share the same goal, that is to connect the
world through air routes* In other words, to create a global
network.

The competition is tough, and moving people is serious
business. However, not all airlines have what it takes to
succeed. Minor problemg are hard to justify to passengers
when other airlines seem to provide the same services,
tfs up to each airline to make loyaJ customers out of their
passengers from the very start.

The airline companies of today are expected to supply the
best transportation available. Convenience, safety and
comfort are desired by all passengers. Each airline must
continuously invest in mainteriance, ad campaigns and
special services, ffs all a part of their role as a global
transporter of people.

ia

MAJOR AIRLINES

lo the airline business, a company is rated as a major or
minor airline. A major airline is a company which has a
record for regular flights, few cancellations or delays, and
is recognized for first class service. A minor airline is a
company which has frequent delays of up to 2 or 3 days
and a poor reputation for service.

What do you need to do to win recognition as a major
airline? Let's look into the qualities required of an airline
company: air routes, safety and service.

« Expand Air Routes

It's fascinating to be able to travel to any city in the world
because the transportation routes are available.
Passengers feel a sense of security and trust in your
airline when you provide the means for thenn to reach
distant dlies.

* Safety First!

Passengers entrust their lives to an airline when they
choose to fly in their planes. Mo one is willing to fly in
planes which are known to break down. Passengers also
lose faith in airlines which show up in the news because
of problems.

* Service with a Smile

Long lines and delays are intlatlng for travelers. Its up to
you to provide a relaxing atmosphere for passengers
once they board-

An airline company with extensive routes, a reputation for
safety and good service i$ bound to be a global success!

headquarters from 22 dlies. Dep^ .iding on the scenario
and game level and headquarters location you set, you
are provided with capital and planes at the start of a
game.

The game year starts in April and ends in March of the
next year. Your turn comes up ©very 3 months.

STARTING YOUR 8 USINESS

YOUR GOAL

You are President and CEO of an airline company.

Your company is provided wi^ a r>umb©r of airplanes and
holding slots in certain cities.

Extend your routes and connect 22 cities of the world
through your air routes. Strikes, airplane trouble and worid
events may hinder your progress. Your goal is to become
the most successful airline in the world.

t.You connect all 22 cities through air routes.

2, Your annual report shows capital In the black," youYe
maintaining a profit,

3. You are transporting the target number of passengers
set for your game level

.. .....

the retf for a year, you're not making a profit.

2.32 years pass without meeting victory conditions.

GAME FLOW

You can't open routes without planes, antJ you can't get
planes without ordering them. In order to understand the
process of running your own airline^ follow the general
game flow.

Negotiate for Holding Slots & Order Airplanes

You have to negotiate to earn the right to
open routes to each airport. And, you need
pianes which can fly non-stop between two
cities on a route.

When negotiations are successful, you win
holding slots. Each slot represents one flight
per week from an airport. The period needed
to negotiate slots differs from 1 to 6 turns.

Order planes before you need them. Normally
planes are delivered within three months (one
turn) of placing an order. However,
manufacturer strikes can delay delivery.

Open Air Routes

You must have an established branch office to
open routes from a city other than your
headquarters. Branch offices can be us^ as
hubs for expanding your network.

At first, open routes between distant^ large
cities. Long-distance routes are in high
demand, and fuel expenses are low compared
to short distance flights. In large cities, with
high populations, there a great demand for
airtine service. The bigger the city, the greater

the cost for setting up air routes- But» also the
greater the profit from connected routes.

Set the Budget

As CEO, you need to set the budget for the
Repairs, Advertising and Service
departments.

Each department ts rated on a percentage
scale and by the industry standards* If you
don't continue to invest in the budgets,
airplanes will not be repaired, your services
will not be advertised, and service will
deteriorate.

Save Capital

If you are generating enough capital, keep
openir^g new routes. But, if capital is iow, wait
a few months and check your competitors'
moves. If you are competing on a common
flight route, it may help to boost your
advertising, reduce the airfare, and switch
ptanes.

Set Up Branch Offices

As you add routes from the heaciquarters city,
think about setting up a branch office. It costs
more to set up an office in a large city than an
industrial city, but large cities will prove more
profitable.

• Connect All 22 Cities

After you connect all 22 elites, your last goal is to reach
your yearly target for transporting passengers (see
Victory), Stay competitive with ad campaigns and by
buying out charter companies.

The Olympic Games

Every four years, the Olympic Games are hosted bv a
to th?OlyV^St!Sn St fo

World Fair

The World Fair i$ held in a different city around the wortd
each time. The city which hosts the exposition will benefit
from the inflow of new business. Air routes and cheap
fares to the fair site will be in high demand.

Tourist Boom

Tourist booms are very positive for cities because they
bring in money. Certain cities are often targeted in tour
campaigns. This iricreases the demand for air routes and
cheap airfare. At these times the airlines with the best
fares and service will be successful

Labor Strikes

Airlines are effected by strikes among their own labor
forces and by aircraft manufacturer strikes. An airtinc
strike will hinder progress within a company. If a labor
strike occurs at an aircraft manufacturer, all orders for
planes will be delayed at least 3 months.

Earthquake

Earthquakes are unpredictable and they scare away
tourists. The hotels in the dty where an earthquake takes
place lose business, as do the airlines.

Bad Weather

Typhoons, wind storms and blizzards delay flights and
tend to frighten tourists from flying. Aircraft may also suffer
damage in severe weather coriditigns.

Accidents

Accidents occur when airplanes are in need of repair.
Accidents damage an airiine*s reputation, no matter what,
so It’s important to keep planes in good repair.
