Virtual Airlines are a way to create a form of “meta” company in OnAir, allowing you to work together with other human players in the same company. Aircraft, jobs, FBOs and all of the general functionality of a normal OnAir company can be experienced in a Virtual Airline.
Virtual Airlines are available in all OnAir worlds but it should be noted that Cumulus and Stratus feature a 10 member limit on Virtual Airlines (as these worlds possess AI pilots who are capable of performing work orders and flights without a simulator flight being necessary), however on Thunder there is no limit to the number of members possible in a single Virtual Airline, allowing for a potential to continue expanding your airline.
In the following chapter we will look at how to create a Virtual Airline, What controls you have to manage the players working within the airline, how shares in a Virtual Airline work and what happens in the case that you choose to shut down your Virtual Airline.
