More than one gate per airline
Until now every airline could hold exactly one gate and one check-in desk.
Assigning the same airline to a second gate freed the first one again – in a
large terminal that left most of the signs empty.
Not any more: an airline can now take as many gates and check-in desks as you
like. Large carriers can be spread across a whole row of gates, the way they are
at a real airport.
And it pays off now. The bonus on passenger income is staggered per airline:
• first gate +1%
• second +0.5%
• third +0.25%
The assignment window now tells you what the next assignment is still worth, and
the contract window shows how many gates each tier counts.
Enjoy!
