"Crying baby not guaranteed on every flight"

Missing that feeling of landing in a foreign country? Well this video game be the answer.

Video game developers in New York have now created a long-haul flight passenger simulator game.

The game which is called 'Airplane Mode' was developed by Hosoji Auji for AMC Games who described is it as "the only flight simulation game where players can experience the intense excitement of being an economy class passenger on a long-haul flight."

In the game users experience a long-haul flight in real-time, with activities like reading in flight magazines, Sudoku puzzles, watching movies and gazing out the window.

According to UPI.com, it won't be all relaxing as passengers will also experience turbulence and WiFi outages.

However, there won't be a "Crying baby not guaranteed on every flight".

Speaking to CNN, Auji said:

"A large part of the commercial flight experience is largely predictable,"

"Our goal was to design this standardized flight and then layer it with delights, annoyances and idiosyncrasies that the frequent flier will surely find relatable."
