Alliance

Note: The alliance function is currently working. However, not all features are fully implemented until further notice.

Create alliance

Alliance Name: Enter the name of your alliance here.

Max. Base Routes: This is the number of routes your fellow alliance members can create from your focus cities. Your choices are 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 routes. Note: this is cumulative amongst all alliance members. Also note that if you create a route from an alliance member's focus city to your own focus city, it will deduct from the allocated number of alliance routes from that alliance member's focus city.

Registration Type: An "Open" alliance means anyone can join your alliance. In a "Restricted" alliance, existing members may vote for, or against, airlines petitioning to join.

As the founder of an alliance, you would enjoy the small privilege of having executive decision power on vote (if you have chosen a "Restricted" alliance). This means you can pass or fail a vote yourself, when less than 50% of all your members have voted.

Each alliance costs €10,000,000 to form, along with an individual figure for each airline due to the computer system implementation requirements. In many cases, the cost of starting an alliance may be higher.

Join Alliance

This is where you can join an existing alliance. For alliances with open membership, you simply pay the fee, and you are a member. For those that have restricted memberships, you would need to go through a vote by the existing members in the alliance. Some alliances with restricted memberships do have other application procedures like applying in the forum and go through a trial period before you can apply in-game.

The application fee to join an alliance is €1,000,000 in initial expenses along with an individual figure for each airlines due to the computer system implementation requirements. However, in many cases, and as displayed on the confirmation page, the fee may be higher. If your application is rejected by the alliance, only a portion of the application fee will be returned.

There is a special section in the game forum where you can view currently existing alliances, and try to find one that suits your needs. You can also form one, if you want to.

Create an Alliance Route

Once you have joined an alliance, you will be able to create a route from any alliance members' focus city (see below for the exception). All alliance members' focus cities will be listed under your own focus cities.

View Alliance

To view your alliance, hover over the "Corporate" header, then select "View Alliance" under it. There will also be a link to the alliance voting page where you can vote for entry petitions.

You can also see the number of alliance flights from all alliance members' focus cities. The number under the "Flights" column indicates how many alliance flights are flown from that particular focus city. When this number reached the maximum number of alliance flights allowed, that focus city will disappear from the list of departure airports on your Create Route page.

Alliance Rankings

You can check the ranking of your alliance by going to the "Rankings" page and click on "Alliance Ranking". The alliances would be listed by total net worth in descending order.

Leaving an Alliance

You are free to leave an alliance at any time. Any routes you have created from an alliance member's focus city will remain; however, you will not be able to edit them. Your only option is to close an alliance route. Conversely, any alliance members that have created alliance routes from one of your own focus cities will not be able to edit those routes (only close).
