About This Game

BUILD AN AIRLINE EMPIRE
From the dawn of the Jet Age into the future.

Choose your home city, create your airline and start connecting the world.

Build new routes, expand your fleet and make the decisions that turn a small regional carrier into a global airline empire. As aviation advances through the decades, new aircraft, destinations, opportunities and challenges will reshape the world around you.

CONNECT THE WORLD

Study new destinations, balance business and tourist demand, and build a network that keeps passengers — and profits — moving.

Every new route is an opportunity. Decide where to expand, which aircraft to assign and when the time is right to challenge your rivals in a new market.

opening new routes takes you to new places

The route board is open. Where will your airline fly next?

BUILD A FLEET FOR EVERY ERA

Your airline grows alongside the history of commercial aviation.

Buy the aircraft that fit your strategy, give them your airline's identity and retire ageing models as newer generations arrive. A great aircraft can transform a route — but every aircraft is an investment.

EVERY QUARTER BRINGS NEW DECISIONS

Running an airline is more than choosing where to fly.

Manage staff, fuel reserves, finances, alliances and reputation while adapting to changing markets and events around the world.

History can create unexpected challenges — or the opportunity that takes your airline to the next level.

an event and an opportunity for you

Events around the world can create new opportunities — if you're ready for them.

OUTMANEUVER YOUR RIVALS

You are not building your empire alone.

Rival airlines are expanding their own networks, competing for attractive routes, passengers and prestige. Decide when to compete directly, when to find another opportunity and how aggressively you want your airline to grow.

CLASSIC STRATEGY. MODERN PRESENTATION.

Aviator combines the romance of commercial aviation with the thoughtful decisions of classic strategy games.

Every aircraft is an investment.
Every route is a wager.
Every rival wants to get there before you.

Inspired by SNES-era strategy classics such as Aerobiz Supersonic, Aviator brings classic airline strategy into a colourful, approachable modern experience.

Easy to learn. Plenty to master.

HOW FAR CAN YOUR AIRLINE GO?

Start with a home city and a handful of opportunities.

Build your network. Grow your fleet. Adapt to a changing world. Outsmart your rivals.

And turn your airline into a name recognised around the globe.
