| I dont think they have it in the demo. One other thing i noticed is the gates to.. their are none. Microsoft said they would be able to adjust to the plane door when you go up to it. |

| I don't think there are any airports that are big enough in the demo. We'll have to wait until the full release for these features. |

Seems like a lot of lines of code to add a bit of distraction to 5 minutes of a 5 hour flight. I sure hope the airport bells and whistles, along with the flying birds and moving road traffic can be turned off. Realistic ground, water, sky and aircraft textures are what I am looking for.
Maybe there should be a separate program called Airport Simulator.

True, I could do without all of it including the traffic and birds. From my jet at FL350 I couldn't care less what the traffic situation is.

The airports you start from are limited and the time limit is an hour so you can't get far.

I haven't tried it - it is probably restricted to the Caribean area.
