We have improved the logic that determines when routes are enabled or disabled during partnership changes to ensure immediate accuracy.
We've made two major improvements to how passengers are boarded for your route flights, which will reduce frustrating "near-miss" failures and help you fly fuller aircraft.
First, we've relaxed the strict validation for route minimums. Previously, if your route required 28 passengers and the system could only fit 27, the job would fail. Now, the job will be accepted as long as you have at least one passenger assigned to each required cabin. Flying with 27 out of 28 seats filled is far better than not flying at all.
Second, to help you hit those minimums more often, we've improved the "bin-packing" algorithm that fills your seats. The new system is much smarter at optimizing passenger groups, prioritizing larger groups first to fill the aircraft more efficiently. This means you'll see fewer cases where seats are left empty even when plenty of demand is available.
Finally, if a flight does fail because zero passengers could be assigned, you'll get a clearer error message. For example, it will now tell you if this happened because all available passenger groups were too large for your aircraft's capacity (e.g., trying to fit a group of 5 into a 1-seat aircraft).
We've updated the background tool that manages the global demand market. This tool already kept the total number of available demand in check, but it now also enforces a new, balanced ratio between economy, business, and first-class demand.
This change prevents any single passenger class from oversaturating the market. You should now find a more consistent and varied mix of opportunities across all classes.
You may find that demand numbers dip slightly as the tool rebuilds demand to the correct proportions.
We've improved the Live Flight Map to give you a truer sense of air traffic, especially in busy airspace.
Previously, if an aircraft's label couldn't be shown without clashing with another, its aircraft icon would also be hidden. This meant aircraft would seem to 'pop in' as you zoomed.
Now, aircraft icons will always be displayed, even if they overlap. The map will still intelligently hide labels to prevent them from clashing and keep the view readable, but you will now see all aircraft icons in the area, giving you a much more accurate picture of live operations.
You can now add an unlimited number of items to your groups. We've removed the previous 10-item limit, making it much easier to manage large collections of aircraft, routes, or airports all in one place.
This change allows for much greater flexibility, whether you're building a "main hub" group with all your long-haul aircraft or a "regional" group with dozens of small airports.
The "Preview Demand" button is now more responsive when you're planning routes.
Previously, if you changed the origin or destination airport, the button would disappear until you changed another field, like the price. Now, the demand preview immediately re-appears whenever you change either the departure or arrival airports, making it much faster to test and compare demand for different city pairs without extra clicks.
When you delete one of your companies and transfer its assets to another, the system automatically handles the fleet's legal requirements.
If the incoming fleet includes aircraft that are heavier than the receiving company's current Air Operator's Certificate (AOC) allows, the receiving company's AOC will be automatically upgraded.
For example, if you merge a company that owns a 777 into your new company that only has a Small AOC, the new company will be instantly upgraded to a Large AOC. The standard upgrade fee will be charged to the receiving company as part of the transfer, ensuring your new, larger fleet is immediately compliant.
MyEmail@domain.com or myemail@domain.com will both work).The Route Preview tool for pricing strategies now correctly displays routes when your strategy uses Airport Groups.
Previously, if you used an Airport Group (e.g., "All US Hubs") as a filter in a pricing strategy, the Route Preview map would show no routes, even when matching routes existed. We've fixed this, and the preview tool now correctly identifies these groups, fetches all matching routes, and displays them on the map as expected.
We've also improved the display for group-based filters. When you edit a pricing strategy, the input field will now show the group's name (like "All US Hubs") instead of its technical ID, making it clearer what you have selected.
We've made the platform more robust by introducing new safeguards against accidental duplicate actions. This helps prevent issues like unintentionally chartering a flight twice or submitting the same form multiple times if you double-click.
This behind-the-scenes improvement ensures that your requests are processed cleanly and only once, making for a smoother and more reliable experience, especially during periods of high server load or with a slow connection. Your actions are now better protected from unintended errors.
