LUXURY CABINS for what?

[Spacecat]

They are useless.

Stock up on luxury cabins, then go grab economy passengers. It won't pay anymore, but just imagine all the nice things being said about you in stations across the Galaxy and experience the joy of having made someone's day better.

"top 1%? More like top .001% if you ask me"

"I could actually move my arms"

"The food scared me, not used to it"

"Temperature controlled. Never knew that existed"

I would reply like I have so many times. If you can't, don't, sell it. I see many luxury sightseeing missions at one base, at another base, I see plenty of transport so and so to here or there. At another base all I see are the multi haul passengers as trash.
If you really want this ship to shine. You have to play the game to support it. BTW If your beluga is overheating, back to the rebuild screen for you.

*chuckle* I'm gonna come clean and admit to making just over a billion quite recently using a Beluga and a brace of luxury cabins running VIPs and rebel leaders from Parutis to Mdeb. It got me Trade Elite ranking too. Those missions seem to have dried up now, how strange. And I find no use for the Beluga now. I never really enjoyed passenger missions that much anyway, I got into the game for combat, exploration and trade. So it's just funny to me now that this 'whale' of a ship is how I made it financially.

Hi everyone,

I don't understand, why we need luxury cabins if the prices of economics is so much profitable and the passengers never complain? For me, doens't make sense. Could someone explain the advantages?

Agreed.
Can't see it either.
Perhaps we should get rare materials, or extra rep on top of regular payments.

I would love to transport luxury passengers for good amounts of rare mats and data.

I also still think that a ship like the Cutter should be allowed to transport luxury passengers. Just look at her. She is the epitome of luxury.

Because "basking".

Except, there's really no "basking" to be had. If the interior were at least visible, perhaps there would be a purpose.

PAX cabins and missions need a good overhaul to make Luxury cabins (and therefore PAX ships) more viable, plain and simple.

The only "threat" is to those raking in millions in their Anacondas with economy cabins and stacking.

Instead of removing them entirely, why not asking for appropriate missions in the first place? If you remove everything that is bugged or makes no sense in ED you'll end up with an empty galaxy sim and no game at all.

As far as I can see things would stay exactly the same then
