Each airport has four gates, with you using 2-4 gates depending on the number of players. To set up, draw airport demand cards from the deck to seed airports with passengers. Whenever you place passengers on the board, draw from a bag that initially contains 100 red cubes and 25 green cubes; for each airport, continue drawing until you draw a red cube, then redistribute passengers at the open gates of that airport as evenly as possible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(Note that at most the first five airports drawn will have an open gate, and even those will start with only one open gate run by a local airline.

Then demand cards equal to the number of players are drawn, and more passengers are ahead to those airports. The game board lists the number of cards for each airport, so you somewhat know the odds of where passengers might arrive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlayers adjust their income to account for the opening of new gates, the redistribution of existing passengers, and the arrival of new passengers, then they add their income to their score.

(ORD is one of four airports in two regions, with the others being JFK, LAX, and DFW.)
