Leasing Planes

Along with the option to purchase planes, you have the option to lease planes aswell. This gives you the opportunity to add planes to your fleet without purchasing them if/when you don't have money to do so.

Again just like when you purchase the planes the planes are divided to 4 categories: Regional Aircraft's, Medium Range Aircraft's, Long Range Aircraft's and Cargo Aircraft's. When you go to one of the categories instead of the purchasing price you will see the daily cost of each aircraft you want to lease.

There are few restrictions on leasing aircraft's:

1. Each aircraft has it's own rating requirement. You can see how many rating you need in order to lease the aircraft in the leasing screen under the daily cost.

2. Your airline cant lease more than 4 aircraft's at a time.

3. After leasing an aircraft you wont be able to cancel the lease for the first 3 days of the leasing.

Payments: Before you want to lease an aircraft make sure that you have the daily cost of the aircraft in your account as the first days cost being taken from your account as soon as you lease the aircraft. If you don't have this amount in the account you wont be able to lease the aircraft. After that each day at 00:00 the system will take the leasing amount from your account automatically.

Canceling A Lease: In order to cancel a lease you need to go to your airline fleet screen. There under each leased plane you will have a link to cancel the lease. To cancel a lease your aircraft has to be on the ground and not in the middle of a flight, in that case the system wont let you cancel the lease.

Purchasing Leased Planes: There is an option to purchase the plane that you are leasing. In you airline fleet screen next to each leased aircraft you have a link to "Buy Plane". Clicking this link will take you to a screen with information about cost. You will see there 3 amounts:
 * Aircraft Cost - This is the original cost of the aircraft when it's new.
 * Amount Paid - This is the amount you already paid during the leasing period.
 * Amount Left To Pay - This is the amount you still need to pay in order to purchase the aircraft and make it yours.

If you have enough money to purchase it just click the "Purchase Plane" button and the aircraft will be yours.
