The Passenger Airplane is a fixed location to the north-east of the starting zone added during an update on 05.17.2013.

The first and second plane can be built after the Airport Terminal is complete.

The 3nd-6th can be when: Concourse A - Level 1

7th-10th: Concourse B - Level 1

To complete construction of a single plane, as with all construction projects, there is a choice between waiting, and receiving gifts via neighbors, or buying any/all required assets with megabucks . A total of 290 assets are needed to complete construction of one Passenger Airplane; this equates to 330 if you were to buy every asset.

You can build a total of 10 planes, which offer three unique contracts per level.

Added during the Major Update 02/12/2013 - Airplanes now taxi from the Airport Terminal - Concourse A & Concourse B to the Runway and take off once a Contract is assigned. Flying in different directions - planes return at the end of each Contract.

TIP
To upgrade all 10 Planes to Level 5, you'll need 3,300

or 2,900 gifts. Be sure you're willing to start such a project!
