Do you have what it takes to be an air traffic controller at a busy international airport?

As an air traffic controller it is your job to keep aircraft from colliding, while avoiding unnecessary delays. You are paid the big bucks for your visualization skills and guts. Just like the real job of an air traffic controller, you must pay attention and keep your eyes moving. There is always something that you could be doing! You must give takeoff clearances, landing clearances and taxi clearances in a strategic effort to maintain safety and efficiency where there would otherwise be total chaos. This is not a spectator's sport!

This simulation contains 2 different challenging airport layouts. Knowledge of air traffic control is not required to be a top-notch air traffic controller in Airport Madness Mobile, but you do require nerves of steel.

Be sure to check out Will It Fly? and Airport Madness Challenge!

### 1/5 — Starts Good- Evolves to Very Bad

*2025-08-09, version 1.7.2*

This game is fun and I love the increasing degree of difficulty until it reaches the stages that clouds are present and you can no longer even see the planes. Failure is inevitable and it destroys and otherwise solid game. 
     They should remove the levels with clouds and replace with increasing runways and planes. I am deleting the game from my phone just because of the ridiculousness of the cloud levels.

### 2/5 — Great, but

*2023-12-21, version 1.7.2*

Great game, but you have to buy levels ..

### 1/5 — Bad

*2023-11-04, version 1.7.2*

You get TWO LEVELS before you have to pay 99p to get the next few. Total 4 instalments. Don’t bother with it

### 5/5 — Dahbeche

*2023-04-05*

It’s ok but I wish you’d consider more than just 2 levels it gets boring and makes us delete the app and it would be more better if you’d make different colors for the planes to know which is landing and which is taking off with all due respect sir or madam please make different platforms and more levels to make it more enjoyable

### 2/5 — Why the clouds?

*2022-05-24, version 1.7.2*

Yea. So everyone that saying that the cloud boards are horrible, yes they are ridiculous.
Get rid of the clouds.

### 2/5 — Ok game but need to pay to get past training

*2022-01-04, version 1.7.2*

Game is fun but you have to pay to get past the first few levels. It only takes 15min

### 3/5 — Christmas wishes

*2021-12-25, version 1.7.2*

I wish it look a little more realistic than the cartoon looks

### 5/5 — Great game

*2021-03-02*

I have been playing it for 10 years now, still one of the most enjoyable games ever.

### 5/5 — Muito bom

*2021-02-05, version 1.7.1*
