I am thinking of doing a land grab this weekend in preparation for when I can buy a level 5 runway (I have a few levels to go for this). At the moment I have 2 Level 4 runways - which enable me to keep pace with my and guest flights - however if I used the land temporarily to build a third level 4 runway would this increase the frequency/number of guest landings. I find these a good source of flight items and experience points and I could easily handle more than I currently do. However if they dont increase it is not worth the expense of building it.

I'm not at my computer where my game is stored, so I can't view your city.

However, make your land grab. If you have ridded your city of lower level runways, buy a level one and level three runway to temporarely fill that land until you need to build the level 5 runway. That increases the efficiency of your airport, especially when launching your own aircraft while handling incoming guest flights.

No it would not increase the frequency on guest planes.
Guest planes land at the rate of one each minute regardless of number or size of runways.
i have timed this several times during events to see how may flights land.
Apparently you can't have more than 2 in the queue either, so more than 2 runways may be pointless. However, when you spend so much on a runway, it's hard to just toss it aside

runways are not only for guest planes.

When you reach the higher levels 70 + as you will have 10 + hangers. You will need a minimum of 3 runways to your planes in the air in different combinations.

Not necessarily. Your flights will just be queued up until an available runway is free. You can do everything on a level 7 runway, I just don't think it's as efficient. Also, lv 6 runway is very expensive, so why toss it aside lol

True but there was a method to improve chances of getting better drop rates by clicking fast after multiple flights have landed.
This is not possible with flights landing one at a time as the game sometimes lansds and stores flights in hangers with coins and experience uncollected.

Not working (anymore). I did several tests and drop rate is not better with multiple vs one runway. I have additional runway because of launches as while planes are on runway, it block shuttle.

I am aware of that. That is why I said was. To give an indication of one the reasons why multiple runways was necessary. Now a days most people just upgrade to the latest runway to conserve land on the airport side and expand their city side.

Only expanding the airport side for new building or more power.
