They check in at the gate, walk the path, step through the door and take a seat. Every seat that fills pays you. Fill the whole vehicle and it departs, then the next one rolls in and the queue starts again. YOUR JOB IS THE BOTTLENECK You never drive anything.

Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be.
