Airline News

Nov. 2 Update

Welcome to November! Its been a while since our last update. Couple notes today: 1. There have been several questions regarding the new FBW A380 for MSFS2020 and how will we address this new plane. VUAL will allow pilots to fly the A380 in its STAR Alliance liveries on real world STAR alliance partner routes. A list of flights can be found here: https://gotravelyourway.com/airbus-a380-routes. Many STAR alliance partners fly the A380: Singapore, Asiana, Luftansa, ANA, etc., so there are plenty of routes to choose from. The A380 cannot be flown in UAL colors, or as a charter flight in UAL livery.

July 27, 2024 Update

Only a few more days of CAT free flying left. We will resume normal operations starting Aug. 1. If you have flown the B777 and/or MD11 delivery flights (KPAE to a UAL hub/KLGB to a UAL hub) we will have a delivery award available soon. Please make the request to your hub manager. Lastly, be on the lookout for updated schedules for UAL flights coming soon!

June 24, 2024 Update: CAT FREE

With the expected launch date of the PMDG 777 coming very soon for MSFS2020 maybe even tomorrow, VUAL will allow all pilots to fly CAT FREE starting from today until the end of July, 2024!!! This gives our newer pilots with less hours an opportunity to fly the 777 in UAL and STAR Alliance liveries to rack up the hours needed to fly her "full time". Enjoy!!!

April 8, 2024 Update

 

Greetings! Just two quick updates today. Firstly, the UAL schedules have been updated again in April! You now have the most up-to-date flights available to fly. Second, we have added a #staff-job-posting-application channel to Discord for future staff openings. As you know, we are 100% committed to Discord as our communication means, so visit there often. Please feel free to jump into the pilot’s lounge, or post any interesting/funny stories in the #General section. We are still working on our strategy for e-mail and the forums. Lastly, our Chief Pilot Colin is working on some great ideas for you

March 15, 2024 Update

Just a quick note to let you know we updated the UAL schedules earlier this week. There were over 6000 flights that were part of the update. You now have the most up-to-date schedules available to fly. Enjoy!!! We will be addressing other STAR Alliance airline schedules in the future, but our #1 focus will always be UAL... Also, we are in the final stages of our Operations staffing realignment. There will be an announcement regarding the new roles and the staff members assigned to those roles soon. These changes are at the Hub level, as we try to streamline
