AirportSim

AirportSim lets you work in airport ground handling, carrying out documented tasks around aircraft turnarounds at recreated real-life airports. You guide, secure and service aircraft, handle luggage and operate ground vehicles, following procedures as you move around the airfields.

Ground handling tasks

Tasks include guiding aircraft with a follow-me vehicle, marshalling, securing aircraft, connecting GPU, fuelling, handling luggage, manoeuvring jetways and catering.

Airports and aircraft

The game includes four airports, recreated with ground layouts, aircraft parking, lines and gate numbers matching their real-life counterparts. You can use real aviation charts to navigate them:

• Vágar Airport
• Keflavík Airport
• Warsaw Chopin Airport
• Key West Airport

The licensed aircraft have real connection points, door operations, refuelling systems, lights, sounds and ground procedures for turnarounds. The current aircraft are the Airbus A320neo and 737 MAX, with partnered airlines EnterAir, WizzAir, Norwegian Airlines and Atlantic Airways.
