### 1/5 — Absolute scam of a game

*2026-01-14, version 1.11.2*

Do not pay for anything. You never get it. Removed ads and you still have to watch ads for anything to be given. Horrific

### 1/5 — BUG OF DEATH

*2026-01-13, version 1.11.2*

Game gets to ground crew then looks out completely and you can’t click on anything to progress. Closing and restarting the game and phone does nothing to help.

### 1/5 — Need a refund

*2025-12-31, version 1.11.2*

Paid for the app to remove the irritating ads. The game has three levels and I finished them in less than a day. Ridiculous that the game hasn’t been updated. DO NOT GET.

### 4/5 — Good Idle game

*2025-11-26, version 1.11.1*

The game is a lot of fun, but the thing with the service vehicles requires way too much attention maybe they should be given a manager. And also are these ad‘s pretty annoying

### 1/5 — Ads

*2025-11-24, version 1.11.1*

Game is filled with too many ads.

### 5/5 — Idk

*2025-11-22, version 1.11.1*

I didn’t get as much adds as other people and after the las Angeles airport it’s much better after that

### 1/5 — Next Level

*2025-11-20, version 1.11.0*

Eigentlich ein schöner Zeitvertreib. Wie immer Werbung ohne Ende, ja, kann man gegen Einwurf von Münzen ausschalten. 
Was mich stört ist, habe Flughafen Hawaii durch und warte nun seit Tagen auf das nächste Level.
Das ist schon schwach, dass es so lange dauert.

### 4/5 — Decent game, completed it in a day

*2025-11-13, version 1.10.0*

Not a bad game to pass the time. The multiple choice thing can be a bit annoying, especially when it pops up without warning and you click an option without meaning to, affecting gameplay purely accidentally. 

Also, there shouldn’t be an option for me to be able to buy 3 trillion coins for only 30 diamonds, makes the game far too easy. I had fully upgraded the Hawaii airport in about 5 mins thanks to this. 

Would also be nice if I could zoom out a bit, as constantly switching between terminals and sections hurts my eyes a bit. 

I hope we get more levels in the future, though, as this was relatively fun to play.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2025-10-24, version 1.9.1*

The only problem is the ads i will pay $10 to remove the ads permanently both forced ads and reward ads

### 2/5 — Could be better

*2025-10-16, version 1.9.1*

Would be better if there weren’t so many ads, along with an no ads option in the store.
