With the routes that are not covered under the Dispatch Route Search page, is it possible for DVA pilots to suggest/add company routes to this page, for instance KATL-KPHX is not covered in the Dispatch Route Search page, however I have a IFR preffered route(there are obviously several) that could be utilised by pilots flying this route

Done.

We try to keep as many routes covered as possible, but for thousands and thousands of possible (and changing) routes it's really impossible to get them all. Personally, I've been putting quite a few Brazil flights and Asian flights in the system lately, but if there's any others you need I'd be happy to put them in.

Yeah I can imagine that, most routes I've flown are there but if I come across any that arent then I will be more than happy to help I think it adds even more realism to fly DVA company routes, as I say I'll nudge as and when I find any gaps

Ok there should be a little better coverage now. I went in and added missing routes for a bunch of popular flights. Any city pair that has been flown 10 or more times in the last 60 days (system-wide) should now have a dispatch route. I'll try to to keep a watch on it and keep up with any changes in the list, but there are still lots of flights that do not have service (it's pretty much impossible to get them all). At least now we have some more of the popular ones covered.
