In the late 1950s the commercial aviation market entered a golden age, new airliners filled the sky and made the entire globe feel very small. In Airlines players will start a new airline company and strive to become the most successful one by the end of the game.

For more details about Airlines please read the Rules*

The Rules are not final - some images and rules are subject to changes.

As we developed Airlines, we managed to design two versions of the game: An easy to play edition that would appeal to all players (60 mins) and a more in depth strategic edition of the game that would appeal to Gamers (120+ mins).

We thought hard and long and decided to publish both games! 

The regular edition - will include the first game only.

The limited edition will include both games in the same box (!) - a game that you can play with anyone (Ticket to Ride-Ish) and the game you wish to play with your hardcore gaming group.

Important Notes

Production. A distinction must be made between games that are printed by Giochix directly and those that are printed “indirectly” by another publisher.

In the first case, we have direct control over the entire printing process and we can intervene quickly to adjust for any potential issues where necessary.

In the second case, we may only interact with the publisher that prints the game and without any ability to make immediate changes during the production process.

This means that once the games are printed by us, the shipping date that we have indicated in the project will be a reasonably safe deadline. While we are confident in our abilities to meet the designated timing; unfortunately, delays are always a possibility and this must be taken into account. In the second case, for “indirect” games, the shipping date is purely indicative.

Unfortunately it can happen that the deliveries suffer a delay and this should be considered before making a purchase. Of course we will inform you immediately if something were to happen.

-> Airlines - Golden Age of Aviation is printed by Golden Egg Games. It is therefore a “indirect” game.

Components. Game specifications and components are to be considered indicative of the final product and may be changed during final production.

Project pages. Sometime there can be small variances between the pages of this project in the different languages. In that case, refer to the project’s English page.

Fairs. It is possible for the game's shipment to be scheduled to occur during a time frame close to a larger game fair, such as; Essen Fair in Germany or Lucca Comics and Games in Italy. It is important to note that we will be showing/selling the game at these fairs independently of campaign participant shipment status. Attending these fair events is vital to the game's chances for success.

Guarantee. If you are not satisfied with this game you can return it for a full pledge refund. You will need to ship the game back to Rome, Italy at your cost. Returned games must arrive to the designated location within 90 days of the first shipping date. Game must arrive still in its wrapping or in perfect condition (packaged carefully to avoid any potential damage.) and without any missing pieces. Refunds will not include any of the shipping charges paid and will only be made via PayPal.

You may also ask for a full refund if there is a delay over 90 days past the announced shipping date. This does not apply to any packages which have already been shipped.

Shipments. We ship by postal service or by supported courier (UPS/GLS/SDA)

We reserve the right to separate the contents of an order into different shipments or to merge the contents of different orders in the same shipment to improve the shipment's delivery speed and any required logistics management. If this happens, there will not be any additional cost for you as a customer (nor right to any refund).

Shipments made by courier or by insured the postal service can be tracked and are considered insured.

Shipments made by the postal service are not insured and cannot be traced. While rare it is also possible that a package may be lost (0.1-1%). Insurance option for potal services costs an additional 3-5 Euro depending on the selected destination.

Courier shipments may take about 3-6 days for EU and US/Canada. Postal service requires about 3-7 weeks for the same locations. Please note that the postal service in the same case can be slow and may suffer several weeks of additional delay. This happens very rarely but it is still a possibility and is out of our control. If you would like a faster deliever or avoid any risk of a long way; pleas use a courier service.

Courier shipment covers against package loss, destruction and package damage. Postal service insurance covers against package loss or destruction. Insurance requires a customer claim when package is delivered, ask to postman.

Please note that we will not reship any game without first having investigated what happened to the first shipment. This can be processed quickly through the courier service option but may require an additional 1-5 weeks through the postal service.

If the game failed to arrive because of your mistake (wrong address, recipient absent, not picking up at courier/postal warehouse, etc.), you will have to pay an additional shipping cost for us to re-send you the game. This cost will also include the return costs of the game. Otherwise, if we made an error, we will send it again to you at our expense. If package is lost or destroyed, we will reship it at our expense only if it was insured.

If you live outside of the European Community; custom's taxes may be added. This usually doesn't happen for boardgames; however, please check your country's legislation as this aspect will not be our responsibility.

We will no longer accept complaints related to this campaign after 12 months from the date of shipment.
