The airport shuttle
A shuttle van runs between the village and the Skyport. It is a real ride: you
board it, it drives for around a minute and a half, and you hear the road go
by. It does not teleport you.
Where to catch it
The village stop is on the country lane at the east side of the village,
around 430 to 434, 320 to 324, near the sign for the Skyport.
The Skyport stop is just past the arrivals doors, on the forecourt, around
58 to 62, 1 to 2.
Stand on the stop and press shift and enter. A short menu opens.
Riding
Choosing to climb aboard puts you in a seat in the shuttle. The doors close,
the engine starts, and the shuttle sets off. You will hear the driver pull
away, the country lane, the airfield fence coming up, and a "next stop"
announcement before the shuttle pulls in. You stay seated for the whole ride;
you cannot walk around or get off early.
If you leave the game, disconnect, or the server restarts while you are on
the shuttle, you pick up again from the same point in the journey when you
come back.
If you start watching another player while riding, the ride keeps going in
the background; when you stop watching you are still in your seat, with the
same time left to go.
Press shift and enter again at any time while riding to hear how many
seconds are left.
The express transfer
If you do not want to wait for the ride, the boarding menu also offers an
express transfer for 300 points, taken from your points the moment you
choose it. It sets you down at your destination right away. There is no
free way to skip the ride; the express transfer is the only shortcut, and it
always costs points.
