Borrow what you can from Mini Bank Market Loan (~ 187M) and Vaulture Market Loan (~ 212M).

Time to add one more wave on KMP hub.
Refreshing your audit you can notice a bump of about ~200 economy passengers.
This may seem like a very small progress; but keep in mind that every increase of 600 allows you to squeeze one extra wave on circuit.
Adding one wave (~770M) brings you instant incomes; versus building a new circuit (160-500M) plus the same base cost for plane (770M).

So, refresh your internal audits for all your 7 routes on KMP.
Load them in the Perfect Seat Finder and select WAVE=2, like so:

Note down the seat configuration, and order 7 planes with this toward KMP; and since they will be added to the first circuit, name them KMP-C01.
Update the prices for these routes as per the tool.
Once the planes have arrived, schedule them as usual.
