Welcome aboard Air Similan
Created in 2020, Air Similan is a French virtual airline using the codes of a real, professional, and quality airline. Air Similan was created to look as much as possible as a real airline. It operates mainly on the IVAO network.
What is a virtual airline?
A virtual airline, or VA, is a group of flight simulation enthusiasts whose objective is to simulate the life of a real airline, with its regular flights to specific destinations in accordance with the actual procedures of Civil Aviation. These flights taking place on a flight simulator (such as Prepar3D, X-Plane, MSFS or FSX) are tracked and all their information is retrieved and then stored in the airline's database.
What is IVAO?
IVAO (for International Virtual Aviation Organization) is an international organization allowing air simulation enthusiasts to carry out all kinds of virtual air links in real-time, to provide or enjoy air traffic control services, and to benefit from courses and training. The goal is to get as close as possible to reality, following the air traffic control procedures in force throughout the world.
The Air Similan network
Currently, Air Similan's operations revolve around three hubs: Paris-Charles de Gaulle, Paris-Orly and Nice-Côte d'Azur. The airline, operating mainly from Roissy, already offers a large number of destinations throughout France, Europe, and the world. All of its flights have been set up with a concern for realism and profitability.
The pilots have the possibility of being based in Paris (CDG and NCE) or in Nice according to their choice (as far as possible). Once based at an airport, they will only be able to fly from this base and must fly with the aircraft based there.

The Air Similan fleet
Air Similan has a modern fleet made up of Airbus and Boeing aircraft allowing it to reach almost all pilots with a varied range of aircraft. Each type of aircraft is configured differently so as to be best suited to the entire Air Similan network, depending on the flight time, the demand on the line, the type of demand ... In addition, pilots have the opportunity to be qualified on several different aircraft giving them some versatility during their flights.
