Third-party developer SoFly announced a new airport coming for both Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and its predecessor, MSFS 2020, Hannover Airport.
Carrying the ICAO code EDDV and IATA code HAJ, Hannover Airport is the eighth-busiest airport in Germany, and it’s host to a plethora of airline operations primarily to other European destinations. It’s also a rather active cargo hub.
This rendition is developed by SkyHigh Studios and will be released in the spring of 2025, albeit a precise release date has not been revealed just yet.
Interestingly, it promises some rather interesting treats for those who love interactivity, like animated airport doors, moving buses with animated timetables, moving escalators, and dynamic snow build-up.
Below you can find a trailer showing the current state of the airport (of course, it isn’t final) and some of the features mentioned above. We also have plenty of screenshots for your perusal.

A few weeks ago we published an extensive interview with Head of Microsoft Flight Simulator Jorg Neumann about the present situation of the sim and the plans for the future.
Incidentally, just yesterday Microsoft shared an extensive update about its plans for the sim, so you may want to read it to integrate what is said in this interview.
You can also check out our in-depth analysis of how much data the simulator downloads from the cloud, clearing the air from some widespread misinformation that made the rounds over the past few months.
