You are quite off with your estimations of what bars to put each airport. But send an email to support with evidence. Put your 3 bar airports vs other 3 bar airports and compare. For example Leh got 500,000 PAX last year and you are comparing it to Southampton (4 bars in game) which gets 2million pax.

Airport demand bars represent intervals of demand and 500,000 pax is within the 4 bar range. Example: Friederichshafen Airport in Germany, 500,000 pax annually, 4 bar in AS
Not only India, but also China, and for example even smaller European airports have seen alot of increased traffic over the last few years. I agree that it seems that airport demand could use a general update.
Some airports have grown a lot since the last update and especially in India. Unfortunately the support does not have time to make regular updates of the airports.
I talked about it at the last convention because it’s an important imput in the game.
In fact the ideal would be to create a team of players that makes a global update of all airports, and make proposals for new ones, in the same form as it is done for all new aircraft.
Budapest(6bar) boomed as well in the past few years, serving the same amount of pax like German 7 bars (12m+) while growing more rapidly than them(avg 12% last year like 15%), and in this year they predicting another 10%< growth. (well since we are a top tourist destination in both summer and winter, airport management are already planing terminal 3 or "2c" while just finishing the wide body pier at 2A )
I think when talking about demand you cant just transfer passenger numbers into airlinesim demand bars.
Especially airports like Paris Beauvais have actually very limited demand (1,5h car drive from Paris,not even in the same region,far away from a big city...) but its just Ryanair making the airport a popular tourist destination just cause people can get there for so cheap.
It would be great if we could do the same with the new booking classes.

Well in bud case, apart from Wizz and Ryr , classic seats are growing as well (tho at a slower rate) american opened a phl route with an instant success (80+ slf ) LOT opened NA flights as well, not to mention thst LOT planning to obtain hungarian AOC and build “Malev 2.0” (the former hun flag carrier). The funny thing is that we have literally countless of asians especially japanese tourist, yet we have only a PEK route to asia (air china).
Japan needs a major update too. And China... :blink:
Hello
I completely agree with you.

Your turn?
Have fun with airlinesim
So, Airlinesim staff, are you forming this team to update airports?
This is low season at my work... plenty of time to insert airport data, for free ;)
OK cause I think we haven't heard about it... But you must include verifiable sources for every airport, not just Wikipedia data, but official airport or aviation authority data.
