Puffin Planes · published 13 Aug 2026, 04:47 UTC · build 24706591

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Features

  • City connection screen reworked; should better explain the demand to other cities.

  • Route screen now shows the load factor, a.k.a. what percent of seats on the route's flights are occupied.

Changes

  • You can now 'ignore' contracts to get them off your screen.

  • Route screen overall on-time rate has been demoted to a badge.

  • Load factor and AI fleet planning now use actual empirical flight data to more intelligently estimate load.

Bugfixes

  • Fixed an old bug that made planes taxi for longer than intended. Let me know if your planes are turning around too fast now.

  • Fixed another old bug so that now planes who wait overnight to take off can take off right at 5:00 AM.

  • Fixed a bug where you could get building contracts for super expensive things, basically trapping you into failure.

  • Fixed a bug where autobalance would send your plane to the hangar if a competitor was losing money on that route.

  • Fixed a bug where share heists disrupted the market more than intended.

  • Fixed a bug where the share heist button didn't accurately describe what it did.

  • Fixed a multiplayer bug.

  • Fixed the standing class autobalance setting sometimes silently resetting or otherwise behaving oddly.
