Reserve Hanger Slots?

[Dave]

Do you use your greens to max out the slots in your reserve hanger?

 

[LX Air - Teresa]

Not quite. I did some expansion with greenies, but stopped just before the 80 greenies one (in fact I can’t remember how many I did buy, as some of the slots came from Rh/rh1 merging)
Now I plan to level up for an extra slot.

 

[VdW]

I bought 4 slots with Greens. Dunno whether I'll buy more or not. For now it's more than enough for my daily flights (and for Alliance Weekly Tasks assignment).

 

[Chloe11111]

I bought a couple. I didn't want to be buying/selling planes in the early stages when I wanted to save coins for growing the city. I also figure they are a good investment for later in the game.

All my slots are 120 greens. Will do couple and upgrade to next level for the free one. Don’t mind buying and selling planes up to jumbo but not higher ones. Keep those in hanger.

I have bought 11 out of 12 available at L2 - if it was using my own money I probably wouldn’t have so many.
I have more than I need, but not as many as I want. Mine are mostly used to juggle alliance flights requirements, and keep planes for map flights that I wouldn’t otherwise use. E.g. I’m flying giants for maps, but don’t fly these day to day.
Equally I’m on the cusp of coins becoming irrelevant - at which point buying and selling giants isn’t such a big deal..
I know you are playing a slower game, so I’d say buy them if they feel cheap. I can’t see you regretting it.. Probably upto 20-40 greens per slot. Equate 20 greens to ~ 5 weeks of freebies via codes, daily bonuses and bank offers.
On a side note, and I’m hoping someone can clarify if this is true or false; I have got the impression from data gathered for the wiki that you are better to buy the cheap slots before upgrading your reserve hangar. I think the free slot you are given with each upgrade is at the next price...
Its a conclusion I drew from the data presented, but I can’t be sure..

it is good to upgrate the level of hanger reserve to the max. But, you need to be one member of level 10 alliance.
As to open the slots in greenes, it is good to open all of them, that is enough to do all alliance task or event.

It makes no difference if you buy before or after. You have 2 unopened slots and you upgrade, you get 1 free and the price for the next 2 slots is exactly the same as the slots you haven’t yet opened. It doesn’t change anything really. Just moves the free one into the next open slot.

That's interesting to know and would be great to find out.
I have a level 1 hanger with 5/6 slots taken. The 6th slot is 20 greens.
Currently upgrading to the level 2 hanger which should be ready tomorrow. If that's the case, then I might as well purchase the 6th slot for 20 greens before the price goes up.

The price WILL NOT CHANGE! You will get 1 free and the next slot will be 20 greens. It makes NO difference to the price!

Compare the wiki entry for level 2 and level 3. That’s what it shows.

So if you upgrade a hangar after purchasing additional slots, you will ALWAYS get the next adjacent slot free after upgrade? Or are you out of luck if you purchased a bunch of slots with your previous hangar?

Yes. 6 slots next is 120. Upgrade. Next is free but next is then 120.

Yes. 6 slots next is 120. Upgrade. Next is free but next is then 120.

Roger that. Thank you

I bought some because I have bought more planes. I don't mind buying greenies, especially when they are on sale.

[Nayeon]

In short? No. I use greenies only to buy land, or when I'm desperate to close out an event.

 

[Yujie]

NEVER! if I waste any currency, it will get very expensive

As you upgrade your reserve hangar, you will get a slot.

 

[jpm-wv]

Do you use your greens to max out the slots in your reserve hanger?

No, I do not "Max Out those slots" but get them as needed. They get more expensive the more yo go. I bought about 6 and the next is 40 greenies. Upgrading to level 2 will give you another hanger slot FREE.

Some tips are:
1) The ultimate fix is to upgrade your control tower and get anther stand. That way you can have more flights at the same time.
2) You might want to consider selling planes that you don't use. I also had an "Air lab" in my hanger. I already had 3 Owl's that I use for my first alliance Mission Task and I didn't need that Air lab so I sold it. I still have 2 in my warehouse that I'm keeping for the moment.
3) Swift planes are so cheap, they are DISPOSABLE. If you are more advanced with enough coin, some other planes may be disposable. I actually sold off a hawk because I needed to use the Air Lab for an event and later bought another one. I was using one Air Lab to get all three stars for Area 51.
