Airline Tycoon 2

Airline Tycoon 2 is an economic simulation in which you run an international airline as its CEO. You take a run-down carrier and work to build it into a globally recognized company while competing with rival airlines. You can explore airports around the world, from Moscow to New York, with realistic travel conditions and passenger volumes.

Run your airline

Plan flight schedules, coordinate arrivals and departures, and balance income and expenses as you work to increase profits and your airline’s global reputation. Explore your home airport in full 3D, direct your employees and expand your airline. You may also meet VIPs in the airport lounge.

Build your fleet

Use the in-game editor to design your planes, from inexpensive mass-transport aircraft to distinctive luxury jets for elite passengers. You can play as one of four avatars, each with different strengths.

Events and rivals

Random events create opportunities to respond to changing circumstances, such as arranging a special flight for the Pope, dealing with civil war in Russia or reacting to volcanic ash clouds over Europe. You can also sabotage rival airlines to hinder them, but they may retaliate.
