After playing this game online, I decided to go ahead and purchase so I can play through all the levels.

It is whimsical and sweet, yet challenging enough for an adult at the higher levels with plenty of chances to apply strategy. I would recommend this game for all ages!

UPDATE! If you complete all the levels through all the stages, it unlocks the "paper planes" mode, which is totally cute! Now I'll have to replay it in paper planes mode... They are too funny. :)

Saw this game for .98 cents and decided to try it. What a fun and simple game to play, but still a challenge as the levels increase. Just wanted a game to play now and then, other then solitarie. And this does the job perfect.

If you are into the "time management games" you will love Airport Mania! This game was as addictive as Diner Dash and Cake Mania and just as much fun. Your job is to land the planes, unload and load the passengers, perform maintenance and re-fuel all before taking off again. It sounds easy until you realize that you have 4 planes circling the airport waiting to land, one on the runway waiting to unload the passengers (which is why the others can't land yet) 4 planes unloading passengers, 3 sitting off in the designated waiting area - two to unload passengers and one waiting to re-fuel, one already re-fueling and ready to take off again and one being repaired. And just when you think you have it all under control one of your landing strips ices over leaving you to coordinate landings and take off all on the same runway! Throw in a plane carrying a pregnant lady or the presidents plane that needs to land right now and it can get hectic!

The better you do at managing everything the happier the planes are. The happier the planes are the more money you make. And of course the more money you make the more upgrades you can buy - more landing strips, more gates, faster re-fueling, in flight movies to keep the planes happy and so on.

This game has cute graphics and sounds all the way around. From smiling happy planes (that make happy noises) as long as they are on time, to scowling angry planes (that growl and huff) if you are causing them to become behind schedule. Again, if you are a fan of Diner Dash, Cake Mania, etc this is another great game to add to your collection. If this is the first time you have ever heard of "time management games" this is the perfect one to start out with.

Bought this game for just a buck for my iPod Touch the other day and i like it a lot, so does my Wife.
It's a lot of fun to play, keeps you coming back for more.
The game also has great strategy, your Airport gets bigger and the game gets more challenging the further you get.
Highly recommended.

This is a fun casual game with game mechanics very similar to Diner Dash -- you have customers (planes) that have a limited window of happiness (early, on time, or late) as they takeoff and land. Various resources can be purchased in between rounds to upgrade the airport, add runways, eliminate fog, upgrade the loading and unloading capacities of the gates, etc. Having played both Diner Dash and Airport Mania, I tend to prefer this one, even though it seems to be very similar. The most irritating part of the game is when you are forced to queue a long line of planes waiting for repairs (thus far there is only one repair bay). Overall, 4/5 stars and a great way to pass some time.

Really, the best way I can describe this game is cute. The planes are adorable. They make cute noises, and they have cute facial expressions. Gameplay is pretty typical Diner-Dash style- you need to land the planes, get them unloaded, loaded, and add gas and repairs if needed. Colormatching and repetition of tasks give you bonus points. What really sets this game apart is the fact that it's so ridiculously cute. This was a rather long game, but it did get a bit repetitive.

it is just as if you were a real ATC. The airplanes get mad if you make them wait. haha

Hard to stop playing. Runs without any bugs.

Highly recommended !!

This is a cute and challenging game but, I got it because I thought it might entertain my 5 year old grandson. Except for the first couple of levels, it to fast paced for that age group. I would like to see some kind of age rating on the games other than "all ages" or "teen".

Clever little game, a quick-paced puzzle game that keeps you on your feet. A fun distraction, and not a mindless one like so many games.
