Welcome to Saitama International Airport

Update #1 / WELCOME TO SAITAMA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

##################################################################

• After a long journey, we finally are about to land on one of the two international airports in Saitama Prefecture. We hope that your flight
has been enjoyable and that everything has been to your liking. Thank you for choosing ANA Airlines and welcome to Japan 

• Before disembarking, we will give you dear passengers a brief information about the new Saitama airport 

24228439782_7d65c2a9a1_b.jpg

• The name of the airport is "Saitama International Airport" / SIAT. It was open in september, 2015. It is located on an island in the bay of Saitama.
There is a bigger airport in the prefecture, the Nagano international airport,  for that reason the authorities in Saitama decided to build a medium-sized airport
and not another big airport, in this case was possible to built the airport on an island in the bay of the Prefecture

• Thanks to the new airport, air transport in the prefecture is more fluid. Now international flights from Europe, Africa and America
are operating in the other International airport (Nagano International airport). The new Saitama international airport operates most of the flights in Asia. 
The airport is a base for the japanese air company ANA Airlines. There is a dedicated terminal for Japanese flights and another
dedicated to international flights

• If you are lucky you could see and enjoy the new airplane by ANA airlines, it is dedicated and decorated with the STAR WARS
colours and it has a stop from its fly from Tokyo in the new airport in Saitama

There are many ways to get to the different cities of the prefecture from the airport. You can take the special fast train connecting
the airport
with the city and with the other airport. You can take a bus or a taxi, but the most special, fun and definitely
the
most famous is to take the new Saitama's ferry. It connects all the important points in the bay of Saitama

• If you need to stay in the airport because you don't want to suffer the trafic problems and th noise of the big city, that is not a problem.
There are hotels, restaurants, stores and all those things that you could need in your stay in Saitama

• During the night the airport looks amazing, it is a new and modern airport and you can see that, the blue is the color of the Prefecture
and also the color of the new airport. I hope you enjoy your stay here and please be welcome to Saitama Prefecture

Hello, Thanks for your comment ! Well after alot of time playing in this style I think I got a good result, but I have to work more on it... there are some hard points to recreate, like the urban areas, for example areas like Sumida in Tokyo with that medium density...

First of all, thanks for your comment ! I also want to say that I respect and enjoy with the work of everybody in this community. This is a game and we cannot forget that.

When I said those things about the realism in others regions is not a criticism because players are free to make whatever they want, I just was talking in terms of realism. For example if you know about japan you will know about the importance of earthquakes  and how much they influence in the Japanese architecture... I say this, because for example I see alot of people using buildings from Hong Kong or China (I know Some of them can perfectly fit in a Japanese environment)  and is very common to see a "Japanese themed city" full of pencil towers which is... well we can say totally impossible... this is just an example, there are more things, such as a good transport system, a real map or a real location for a Japanese city which I think is really important... but as I say this is not a critic to other players, in the past I also made japanese cities with alot of tall buildings from USA or China, cities located in wrong maps, etc... and after make alot of regions and work with all kind of plugins I think I got a good result... so please don't take that message as a critic,its just my opinnion about the japanese regions in simcity4. I respect everything, every city and region created in this big simcity 4 community.

Thanks again for your comment and I hope to see you again around here. I really like your CJ and I enjoy a lot with it.

That sudden transition between skidded and non-skidded runway asphalt on the second pic looks a bit strange...! ;)

Looks awesome, amazing, and brilliant!  I wish I could see a zoomed out shot of the whole thing, it's incredibly realistic.

Dude, I stayed in Hanno, Saitama for 2 weeks as an exchange student a decade ago!  What a small world!

This is my favorite airport update. No questions asked. The night shot with the airport tower and the HSR terminal with the underground connection is by far my favorite. Very well planned. Excellent creation.

Anybody tackling a realistic airport has me cheering. And yours is WOW. (I take it to be Jenx Modular ? If not it's even more Wow).

Looks great Kelis, good stuff as always.

Careful with certain height restrictions at the airport, however. Aside from the airport tower, buildings should follow the aviation law for height standards. :P

How much does fuel cost at this airport? And what are the regulations surrounding a 707 potentially making a stop here?
