Are these new MSFS 2024 Marketplace expansions actually worth your credits?

The weekly Microsoft Flight Simulator Marketplace update is here, and this time we are diving deep into two major new activity expansions from Perfect Flight built to take your pilot career to the next level in MSFS 2024.

Early community feedback is locked in at a flawless five stars across the board, but keep in mind those early reviews might be discussable. Whether you want to conquer multi-leg commercial itineraries or test your stick and rudder handling on complex regional networks, this update delivers. To help you choose your next big aviation project, we are breaking these releases down into two logical flight style buckets:

First up, we are tackling Mainline Scheduled Operations with the "Southwest Spring 2026 12 Legs" pack. You get 12 ultra-realistic IFR missions mirroring real-world routing alongside a premium Southwest repaint for the default Boeing 737 MAX. Your cockpit skills will be tested with professional flight briefings covering routes, airspace, and destinations across the California coast and deep into the Permian Basin, monitored by over 100 discrete in-flight events. It even includes real-world IFR charts to assist with your departures and landings on the fly.

If you’d rather trade standard airline routes for raw skill building, group two features Regional Commuter Exploration with the "Adventure ATR 42-600/72-600" package. This requires the Expert Series ATR aircraft and challenges your proficiency across 8 original flight missions in 4 distinct geographies. Experience authentic ATC, real airspace references, varied operational environments, and advanced event scripting built to push your turboprop handling skills to the limit.

In this video, we break down exactly what you get inside these mission browsers, check out the specific aircraft classes, and analyze whether these packs are truly worth your hard-earned marketplace credits.
