► Description
Description:
Airport CEO is a tycoon and management game where you take the seat
as a CEO of your own airport. You will build the airport’s
infrastructure with everything from runways and taxiways, gates and
aprons to constructing terminals with check-in, security,
restaurants and shops. You will manage the business perspective of
the airport by hiring employees and executives, making deals with
airline companies and making sure that ends meet by keeping an eye
on budget and resources.
You will have to cater to the passengers by keeping waiting time to
a minimum, by having friendly and helpful staff around and by making
passengers feel secure, keeping any potential incidents at bay; a
happy passenger is a spending passenger. Hopefully you won’t run
into any problems such as stressed out employee, equipment
breakdowns or bad weather which can cause massive delays or even
emergency landings. You will be held accountable when things go
wrong and filthy rich when things go right.
Running an airport
Your objective is to build and manage your airport to perfection by
making strategic decisions, designing the optimal airport layout and
ultimately making sure that your passengers and airlines are
satisfied. You will need to build the entire airport from scratch
including terminal foundations with floors, walls, doors and items
as well as the airport infrastructure including runways, taxiways,
aprons and other airport infrastructure. Everything in Airport CEO
is deeply simulated and it is your job to make sure it all runs
smoothly and with a positive bank account.
Airlines
Airlines and their travelers are an essential element of Airport CEO
as they consist of the main source of your airport’s income. Signing
contracts with airlines bring cash-flow and passengers to your
airport which in term means opportunities for receiving different
service fees, as well as passenger expenditures. Airlines come in
different sizes and have different requirements on your airport and
the services you offer, you are responsible for not only planning
the flight schedule but also for meeting and maintaining the needs.
Occasionally you will need to handle emergencies and delays due to
bad weather or accidents in the area, all which will put your
management skills to the test.
Passengers
Passengers in Airport CEO all have their unique personalities,
needs, a background story and most importantly; a flight to catch
(on time). Passengers are thoroughly simulated and their decisions,
behaviors and opinions about your airport are affected by several
factors. Passengers in Airport CEO, just as in real life, must wait
in lines, check in, pass security and then entertain themselves
until their flight is ready for boarding. Arriving passengers must
find their way the baggage claim, get a hold of their bags and maybe
pass a customs booth before getting on their airport transfer.
Whether they’ll be able to actually catch their flight is up to you:
Passengers might have a hard time finding their way around the
airport so you build an information desk, passengers might get
irritated because of the long security queue and waiting time so you
extend its capacity, passengers might complain about the lack of fun
things to do in the gate area so you build a duty-free shop or
exclusive brand boutiques.
Employees
Employees are those you rely on to keep your airport running. Just
as passengers they are simulated individuals who have a mind of
their own. Employees have a number of different roles and it is your
job to make sure that your airport has the right and necessary work
force at any time. From passenger service agents, janitors, ramp
agents and mechanics, security officers to administrators and
executives. The more you expand your airport’s capacity and
services, the more versatile and skilled your employees have to be.
When employees interact with passengers, they’ll have to be skilled
at managing people and stress resistant in order to avoid making
mistakes or give bad customer service.
Facilities and buildings
Airports are complex mega-structures with a lot of different
buildings and facilities. While a small airport might not need more
than a simple grass runway and a terminal, as you grow your airport
you will have to expand its facilities ranging from air control
towers, larger aircraft stands and taxiways to fire, weather,
catering or fuel stations. As your airport grows your terminal grows
with it and you will have to make sure that it is equipped with the
necessary facilities that passengers are expecting. Building a
terminal in Airport CEO is highly customizable where you lay out its
shape and interior such floor type, walls, windows and doors.
Baggage needs to be processed and transported to the same flight as
its owner and its all up to you to avoid bottlenecks and by
designing the ultimate airport terminal.
Being a CEO
Data, data, data! As the acting CEO of your airport you need to be
able to make difficult business decisions based on current
operation. In Airport CEO you’re provided with multiple sources of
information from which you can draw conclusions and manage your
airport. As the CEO you will not only be responsible for the
architecture of the airport but also for those working in it. Tired
of planning every flight? Establish an informatics department and
let an automated system do it for you! Tired of assessing the
monthly budget balance? Hire a CFO which can help you cut cost and
set prices. Best of luck!
