  • Also, what helps an airport get more XP and level up? Is it based on how many people choose to fly to the airport? That does not seem to make sense since you can't control how many people fly to an airport. So what would be the pint of buying an airport that was not popular?

    Answered by Roberto:
    An airport gains experience points and levels up based on the number of takeoffs and landings that occur there. While it's true that you can't control how many people choose to fly to your airport, SimFly's mission algorithm is designed to...
