Equestrian International Airlines
SUCCESS
Previous ChapterDuring the airports' construction; citizens all around the world were excited about getting to travel by air. The opening days saw many citizens coming to board flights. Among them were Celestia and Luna, who were coming to visit Twilight. The closest airport to Silver Shoals was in Manehattan, so they took a train there and got checked in. Security was very smooth and they got to their gate with plenty of time to spare.
Their flight had a layover in Vanhoover, so they had a great opportunity to see the land from several miles above the ground on their way. The view out the window was absolutely GORGEOUS. They had never been this high in the air for a trip. They had even been given first class seats for free, having been recognized as the retired princesses. After the beginning flight, one layover and one connecting flight, they had landed in Canterlot.
Twilight greeted them herself at the gate, and she asked them how the flights had gone. On the way to the palace, they told her how impressed they were with how their flights had gone. Twilight was pleased to hear this, and then she told them who she had placed in charge of the project. Flurry and the Young Six were waiting to hear about the flights after two weeks. Celestia and Luna congratulated them for designing the airports' functions so well, which they were thanked for greatly.
Two weeks after opening the airports, all of them had each seen at least 200 arrivals and departures combined. Flurry and the Young Six received many compliments on how well the flights went for different passengers for the next six years. During those years, the Young Six developed rescue vehicles for any time that a flight's passengers had gotten stranded and needed to be rescued. These vehicles were only needed once or twice, whenever a plane's engines stalled or the plane leaked fuel. Thankfully, no passengers were badly injured, since the planes were able to make their emergency landings fairly smoothly. After the proper adjustments were made to alleviate the problems, the flights were receiving far more reviews than when they first took off.
During the fifth and sixth years, a second project was launched towards exploring space. The rockets were a HUGE achievement and made exploration possible on the moon. Rock samples were brought back for study and a space station was soon constructed in orbit. The space station made it possible to examine how travel to other planets would be coordinated and carefully planned. After this project was completed, Twilight began planning a second project for space.
