Amazing! I've played this game off and on for years. Unfortunately, it was only on Apple, but since they added it to android, I've been playing it like crazy! Watching ads is optional and you get bonuses for doing so, you can play completely offline, and it's a long term and very casual game. 10/10! Best game I have on my device.

I was so disappointed when they took this game off the marketplace! Glad to see that it's back! They don't shove ads down your throat which is a plus. I would like to see the more customizability, or more of a multiplayer aspect. I remember the old version having team airlines where you compete against others to deliver the most people/cargo to global events. Either way this game is super simple and addicting. Great work Nimblebit!!!!

Would be a perfect game if the VIP wasn't so expensive and the lost and found was a one off purchase, I just can't bring myself to spend that much money on a mobile game. Apart from that, it's a must play for anyone looking for something to do on work breaks or just generally chilling at home. Don't expand yourself to far to begin with, save up 50,000 to buy yourself a major city close to your smaller cities and use that major city as your main hub to return your planes to get better jobs.

I love this game. I have played it for over four years. Glad it's back on the Android platform. An easy game to learn and play, yet it take some strategy to maximize your earnings. My only complaint with the latest update is that the Global challenges are no longer a challenge to see if you can finish in the top ten. The Global challenges are no longer a real challenge.

Awesome game amazing it is back on Android!!! It would benefit if there was more things to do with friends, for example view a list of your friends planes and visit their airports and planes or perhaps even have friends join your world so you could see their planes flying. It would also be cool to have some sort of common goal that you and your friends could work towards however I think this already exists to some degree with events. Either way more ways to play with friends would be great!

Sadly I'm going down to 2 stars for the following reasons: 1. The global event still misses the proper multiplayer option it had over 10 years ago, on android. 2. Paying bux to reuse own planes I got in hangar is dumb. There is no reason to pay when I already own the planes. Discourages players from doing the global events and switch between owned planes. 3. The more you advance, the slower it gets. Despite becoming "rich", growing the company becomes a huge pain rather than being easier.

This game has gotten ridiculous with how it pushes ads to you. I even paid for the premium version which was $40 just to get away from them but I'm still constantly having them shoved in my face. They have also gotten more obnoxious. It went from 1 ad that was like 30 seconds which I could live with to 2 ads at a minute which really annoyed me. Now if I happen to own the game or app that is being shown, it opens that app and half the time once I close it the ad starts over. unacceptable

A great game to keep you occupied. No forced ads and decent pay outs when you do watch ads. No need to pay to play. My only gripe is the cost of in-app purchases! I would consider buying something and supporting the developers but it's so damn expensive: £38 (or even half price at £19) for VIP or £9.50 for the lost and found is extortionate.

Edit - if you don't consent to the cookies it works without internet. Back to 5*, I love this game and can now play it whilst on an aeroplane lol. I loved this game, it's one of my favourites, but what I loved most was that I could play it offline and I spent money to support it. But they've changed the game so that although it looks similar, in the last year they've made it so that it cannot be played offline - this was my holiday airplane mode game and thats been ruined.

I was very excited to see this game is back, but I'm also a little annoyed at how modern mobile gaming has left its stain on it. I experienced my first 45 second unskippable ad for some Buffalo casino app, with the typical extra 5 seconds they add on to most ads. I would've let that go if that wasn't followed by a white screen that that forced me to close the game and reopen it, and then find my rewards I just spent almost a minute watching an ad for weren't there. Please fix the ad issues.

Really great app, highly enjoyable, minimal ads. However, currently dealing with an (apparent) bug where I fill up my planes, send them on a trip, close the app, reopen the app and none of the flights are ongoing. All that time wasted. Hopefully this is fixed as I really love this app but at this rate it's unfortunately unplayable.
