About AirportSim

AirportSim puts you on the ramp rather than in the cockpit, focusing on the ground handling work that keeps real airports running. Its tasks are built around documented procedures and interviews with genuine ground crew, covering everything from marshalling and aircraft guiding to fuelling, luggage handling, jetway operation, catering and securing planes.

Much of the appeal comes from authenticity. The airports on offer, including Vagar, Keflavik, Warsaw Chopin and Key West, have been personally captured and recreated with attention to ground layouts, parking positions, markings and gate numbers, so you can even follow real aviation charts to move around. Licensed aircraft like the Airbus A320neo and 737 MAX feature accurate connection points, door operations and refuelling systems developed in cooperation with manufacturers.

As an indie simulation for PC, the game also leans into its heavy machinery. Licensed vehicles such as fuel tankers, baggage carts and stair trucks come with realistic physics and speed limits, and towing a 60-tonne aircraft around the apron is all part of the noisy, hands-on job.
