WOW... I can see a lot of effort in writing this OP!
I really like your idea how the game should work PASSENGER transportation vise...
SUPPLY:
Commanders letting the world know about their planed route and price of the ticket, willingness to deviate from course
DEMAND:
customers (passengers) buying tickets
Its much more logical then current state.

Now here’s the kicker about all this. The one thing that can be said about having to reload manually, and manage ammo like that, is that it’s realistic. That’s its biggest defense, and it’s the only reason one might want to have it in a video game… Now... Is it realistic to fly a multi million dollar spaceship with ZERO automated flight methods?...
DAMN YOU GOT ME ON THIS ONE! Exactly!

here’s a spot of unused UI space to the upper right in the cockpit… I think a multimedia player should go there. I think it should have the ability to detect MP3s and MP4s stored on the player’s hard drive, and play them. I think it should also have the ability to connect to the player’s internet connection, so the player can search google, play youtube videos, and watch netflix, or use spotify, all INSIDE the game. No need for windowed mode, or multiple monitors, etc. It could actually be really immersive, it could be done up like you’re using GalNet while you’re surfing the web or something. When combined with the autopilot system, people who go on really long trips in this game could treat it like a proper road trip or airline flight. Just relax and enjoy the movie, while the stars of every shape and size go by… Personally, I think that sounds really relaxing, and would make super long trips less off-putting.
OH MY GOODNESS!!! Especially for VR this is a MUST!
