How to play in 60 seconds
Collect flight cards
Draw two cards a turn from the face-up row or the deck. Eight colors, plus the First Class wild that counts as any color.
Claim a corridor
Spend a matched set of one color to claim a corridor of that length between two cities. It is yours for the rest of the game. Length one scores a point; length six scores fifteen.
Finish your itineraries
Secret Itinerary tickets pay out if your network connects their two cities, and cost you if it does not. The longest continuous path earns the Globetrotter bonus.
Race the clock
When a player runs low on planes, everyone gets one last turn. Add up routes, itineraries, and bonuses. Highest score wins.

iPhone and iPad on iOS or iPadOS 17 or later, and Apple Silicon Macs, where Skylanes runs as a Designed for iPad app. iPad is the ideal table.
