Our take on Airport Simulator 3: Day & Night
The defining structure is a shift from personally handling airport tasks at the start to delegating responsibilities to staff as operations develop.
What is Airport Simulator 3: Day & Night?
Run an airport through day and night by coordinating fleet and baggage management, aircraft inspections, interior cleaning, refuelling, loading, unloading, passenger transport, security, hygiene, and maintenance.
Weather changes the work, including wing de-icing during frosty conditions. Vehicles and aircraft move across the airport grounds, with several vehicles available to steer directly. Pilots, cabin crew, mechanics, and taxiway staff support airport operations. Early tasks are handled personally, while later responsibilities can be delegated to staff. Missions cover varied operational duties, and simulated damage or employee illness adds changing conditions to airport management.
