I have seen that from the featured route in the ATC schedule only one of them has its Approach on and only one is crowded and it doesnt even depend whether it was the “To” airport or the “From”.
Recently for the first time My home town airport was in featured airports and i was excited and waited for it but No one was there not even ATC. Shouldn’t the featured airports be manned first. People automatically go to the airports that are manned.
Pretty much always there’s one big airport that becomes the “hub of the day”. It’s usually one of the 2 in the featured route.
Well, people like to fly with ATC, myself included.
First of all, there’s no requirement to staff anything. IFATC are volunteers. Second of all, the featured routes are generally staffed first and are meant to get traffic. The other airports are additional, as stated in the schedule.
