Flightmania
Airport time management for iPhone

Land, refuel, take off – and keep your airport running.

Tap a plane, then the runway, the gate, the fuel stand and the runway again. The faster you turn planes around, the happier the passengers. Five airports with ten days of flying each are waiting, plus an airport of your own that you build tile by tile.

How it plays

A day of flying takes a few minutes. You are the tower: every plane waits for your next tap.

Tap, don't steer

Tap a plane, then its destination: runway, gate, fuel stand, hangar. Plan whole sequences in advance and the plane works through them on its own. Nothing can collide.

Five airports, 50 days

From the gravel strip in Meadowfield to the Metro Hub. Every airport brings new runways, bigger planes and more traffic.

Upgrade between days

Spend your earnings on gates with jet bridges, longer runways, hangars, fuel stands, shops and lounges.

My Airport

Build your own airport tile by tile. Construction keeps going while the app is closed, and your airport keeps earning part of its income while you're away.

A daily challenge every day. One airport, one twist – rush hour, say, or a day full of star planes. Once you've cleared every day, endless mode is about your record.

Explained when it happens. When something comes up for the first time – a fire, a repair, a worn runway – a short guide walks you through it step by step.

What happens at the airport

No two days are alike. These events join in bit by bit.

Night and winter

Without runway lights, landings take longer at night. In winter, every plane is de-iced before takeoff.

Thunderstorms

A storm closes a runway for a while. Takeoffs and landings have to go elsewhere.

Emergencies and fire

Emergency landings need to come down fast, and after an accident the fire brigade rolls out. Then the runway needs repairs.

Cargo and helicopters

Cargo planes need the cargo terminal, helicopters land straight on their helipad.

Airlines that remember

Every airline remembers how you treat its planes. A good reputation brings more flights and better contracts.

Maintenance

Every landing wears the runway down. A short closure for maintenance keeps it in shape.

What Flightmania does not do

What follows is missing on purpose.

For iPhone, on the App Store.

Flightmania: Takeoff is available for iPhone with iOS 17 or later, in English and German.

Free to play: Meadowfield and Harbour Bay with 20 days, and My Airport up to Regional Airport. The full version is a one-time in-app purchase that unlocks the other three airports and medium and long runways in My Airport, all the way to Hub.
