Airport kings
Watch the video: Your hub and its airports
Every month, the pilot with the most landings at an airport holds its crown. Open Standings → Airport kings to see this month's kings at your airline.
How a crown is won
- Each accepted flight counts as one landing at the airport where it really landed, so a diverted flight counts at the airport you diverted to.
- The pilot with the most landings at an airport this month is its king. On a tie, the crown goes to whoever reached that number first.
- Only accepted flights count (accepted by staff or passed by the automatic checks). A flight waiting for review counts once it's accepted. A co-pilot's copy of the captain's flight doesn't count.
- The month goes by the date each PIREP was filed, in UTC. Crowns reset on the 1st: the first accepted landing at an airport in the new month takes its crown.
Each airline has its own kings: only its active pilots compete for them.
The Airport kings page
The table lists each airport with its king, the king's landings and the runner-up's. Your own landings there show under You, and To take the crown says how many more you need; airports you hold say Yours. Below it, last month's kings stay listed.
Your crowns also show on your dashboard, on your pilot profile under 👑 Airport crowns, and on the airline's maps, next to each airport.
Staying off the board
If you chose Leave me off leaderboards on your Profile, you never hold a crown and don't appear on the page. Your flights still count for everything else. See Competitions, leagues and seasons for the other ways to compete.
