Read the full game description

You are the owner of an airline company flying all over the world. You carry the world's passengers, flying from airport to airport with the airplanes of your own company. You can get many landing rights at the airports at the ECONOMY CLASS. Though the action is slower, you can get higher points in the FIRST CLASS. It is a chance to show your skill to operate the airplanes efficiently and find the best cruising course based on the changing PASSENGER CARDS at the baggage claim! However, your company does not offer service at every airport. To outsmart your rivals and to best satisfy your passengers, it is going to be necessary to apply a code sharing system with other airlines or alliances. In Air Alliance übernehmen die Spieler die Rolle des Managements einer Fluggesellschaft und schicken Flugzeuge und Passagiere um die Welt. Dabei müssen die Spieler abwägen zwischen der Economy-Class, die es leichter macht eine Landeerlaubnis zu erhalten und der First-Class, die zwar viele Punkte bringt, aber unflexibel ist. Auch das Gepäck der vielen Passagierkarten muss geschickt organisiert und Transportiert werden. Nur wer dies alles geschickt handhabt, hat das Zeug zum Topmanager! Allerdings besitzt die eigene Fluggesellschaft alleine nicht alle Flughäfen. Um die Konkurrenz zu überholen und die meisten Passagiere um die Welt zu befördern, muss man Codesharing betreiben und Allianzen gründen. Eine Air Alliance. Vous êtes le propriétaire d’une compagnie aérienne internationale. Vos avions emmènent des voyageurs d’aéroport en aéroport, partout dans le monde. Déciderez-vous de miser sur la classe économique, ouverte à tous les aéroports, ou sur la première classe, certes plus délicate à bien faire fonctionner, mais tellement plus gratifiante ?
