IFS and IFE

[Marb1]

We need IFS and IFE in Enterprise! I have a very unprofitable LCC all because I can't add baggage fees and some food to charge people for (like Buy-on-board)!

Also, while you're at it, can you please add toilets (which take up seat space and can affect reputation), galleys (you need more the more food you are going to sell), and flight delays and crashes?

[WhiteFright]

I don't think crashes, galleys, and toilets would add a useful element to the game. In-flight services like food/beverages available as an upgrade once you hit a certain reputation threshold would be awesome though, same for IFE.

IFS, IFE and bag fees are all planned implementations.

Toilets and galleys are just assumed to be included in the cabin layout already.

Delays and incidents (not necessarily crashes) are also planned for some stage in the future.

Legroom should be what affects toilets/galleys. If you have more seats, you have less space for toilets, gallies, etc.

Toilets and gallies space wise don't take much from the seating as they are needed period and planes have a max load anyway. So if you use less seats you have more leg room.

At some point you can go into to much detail I would argue.

Delays is okay with me, but crashes or incidents is not something that should be included IMHO.

Actually that's not true. If you have more seats you will need more galley space and toilets for the pax.

You may need more galley space, however, many airlines (Ahem Ryanair) are getting rid of this in favor or more pax. They don't care about lines, etc

It's not that they don't care, they might feel that there is more money to be made having some extra seats. You can always buy food at the airport. Also, do you have a source for this, it's not something iv ever heard before. It must also be remembered to take what Ryanair say with a pinch of salt, they are a firm believer that any publicity is good publicity and have never implemented lots of more controversial ideas.

You can't get rid of galley space and toilets. It's not something optional to have in your plane. You can reduce the amount of space it takes up in your plane and that's what Ryanair is doing.

I know this is a relatively old post, but this sounds a lot like those arcade games. Enterprise is not an arcade game, it's a fundamental business simulator (that happens to be great fun at the same time). Upgradeable services as you gain experience is the opposite of what newer carriers need. Newer carriers have to break the mould and stand out, and upgradeable reputation dependant services do not do that, they stifle it. Probably not how you intended it to come across. IFS and IFE is huge though, it's sorely needed, but I don't want the implementation of it rushed. I am potentially going to be here for a long time
