The Market Value Economy

We’ve rolled out a fundamental overhaul to the FSCharter economy, moving away from static prices to a dynamic system based on airport market value.

You’ll now find that the cost to purchase buildings (like hangars and service centres), establish operations centres, and sign new agreements (for slots and stands) is calculated dynamically.

This new pricing model means that operations at high-value airports in busy regions will be more expensive, while smaller, remote airports will be more affordable. This change also applies to all operational airport fees: landing, ATC, parking, passenger facility, and customs/immigration fees are now all based on the airport's market value.

Pro-tip: Due to this re-balance, many existing agreements (slots and stands) may now be cheaper. You may want to cancel your current agreements and sign new ones at the updated, lower prices.
