Sagittarius Starlines (Tiger World)

Sagittarius Starlines Corporation Ltd. is an American-Martian Starline. The starline is the second largest operator in the Laniakea Supercluster, and is the largest in the Proxima Centauri and TBM-204 system.
== History ==
The company was founded during World War III by Jack Stratae, a former SpaceX employee and engineer. It initially began as an engineering design company, for his space design patents. Early designs showed starships and proposed colony housing designs for the Moon and Martian Colonies. 
=== Post WWIII ===
After World War 3 and the Pan-American restabilization, President Larkam announced that the Pan American Space and Aeronautics Development board, PASAD, would begin to expand further into Interstellar travel. As part of the Pittsburgh Deal, PASAD acquired the plans for 295 commercial shuttles. Sagittarius' designs were purchased for $1.1 million, and Stratae was hired to help develop the shuttles. In the end, however, Stratae left the company in 2114 with nearly $2.6 million, and was pledged up to 10% of Sagittarius' profits as a comission.
=== Company formation ===
DeShawn Shah was hired as the first CEO for the new PASAD-owned Starline, which had proven successful and a company favourite. He officially formed the company in 2136, with PASAD taking a 50% stake. The board began to formulate options for the commencement of operations, with plans to overtake Lunar and Apollo Shuttle, the two largest Moon transportation companies, within the next 50 years.
As part of the deal, PASAD kickstarted the company by leasing two TBM-15 StarShuttles, and pledged up to 5 RC-94 Luna Flyers by 2160. Stratae's own starships, the Sagittarius S109s, were still in development, and would not enter service until 2216 with the Starline. Shah agreed to purchase one of the StarShuttles for $19 million, and continue to lease the other one until 2156. 
=== Commencement of Operations ===
In July 2149, Shah signed a deal with PASAD Lunar Colonies Transports that would allow Sagittarius to lease out part of Terminal C at B. Aldrin Spaceport, the main spaceport of the newly-formed Tranquility Commonwealth. This would allow Sagittarius to operate up to 18 flights per week to the ports. 
Sagittarius received its first certificate in 2152, a year before operations commenced. In December 2152, the Starline hired 100 employees, consisting of flight attendants, pilots and maintenance crews. It also began to advertise at this time. Finally, in March 2153, Sagittarius confirmed that its first flight would occur on the 19th of June, from Houston Armstrong Spaceport. It began to sell tickets at this time, with business being sold for $19,596 and economy sold for $7,387. 
On the 19th of June, Sagittarius flight 005 (ST 005) took off from Armstrong Port at 12:53 p.m. The flight took approximately 6 hours and 39 minutes, landing at Aldrin port at 9:58 a.m. MST.
=== Growth ===
Over the next decade, Sagittarius grew exponentially. The company reported AMD$396.5 million in its first year. The company bought out all of its TBM-15s, and 2 of its RC-94s. In addition, it also acquired three Boeing X5 shuttles. The company expanded operations to Los Angeles and Cape Canaveral, as well as to the Polar Republic and Pan-American colonies on the moon.
In 2161, Sagittarius began operating from its first International port, Moscow's Soyuz Port, with flights to the Russian-controlled sector of the Eastern Colonies. It later expanded to the Chandrayaan Port in Bengaluru and the Southern Cross port in Adelaide. 
Just five years later, Sagittarius became the second largest moon shuttle, overtaking the crumbling Lunar Shuttle.
=== Mars and Solar System expansion ===
In 2188, Sagittarius leased three TBM-9 starships, with plans to expand to the Martian Colonies. In July 2204, it finally launched its first Mars flight, Sagittarius 049. The flight landed three days later in the Southern Colonies. Sagittarius ramped up their Mars flights to 9 per week in the first three months. In addition, they began planning new flights to the Phobos Outpost, and also to the under-construction Midway Colonies. With the introduction of Stratae's own S109s, the company further expanded to Olympus Mons port. 
It remained on the red planet for 95 years, until the introduction of the long-range K-1 starships. In November 2311, the now-giant Sagittarius launched the first direct flight from Earth to Titan, Saturn's moon, with a stopover on Ceres. The flight took over three weeks, and Ceres allowed the company to expand to more Gas Giants. Sagittarius expanded to Europa and Callisto in 2325. 
Sagittarius launched the first commercial flights to the Venetian Colonies in 2331, and to the New Mercury Colonies in 2335. 
In 2348, the Kuiper Belt Republic opened their borders to foreign travel for the first time in over 150 years. Sagittarius was the first to launch flights to Pluto. Flight 328 flew from Ceres to Pluto on the 3rd of March, arriving two weeks later. The introduction of Mach 21K starships allowed faster-than-ever space travel, and Sagittarius was the first to launch commercial services with these. 
In 2354, Sagittarius signed a deal with the economically prospering Kuiper Government to take out a 35% stake in Kuiper Space Shuttles, the national starline of the republic. As such, Sagittarius leased 3 TBM-4 starships to the shuttle and also rented out international routes to them. In 2388, Kuiper Shuttles launched its first international flight to Titan. 
=== Interstellar expansion ===
On July 9th 2399, close to the turn of the century, Sagittarius launched a non-stop flight from Cape Canaveral Port to Pluto, the longest non-stop journey in transport history, at over 5.2 billion km. The new Sagittarius CEO, Changles Scii-Novicus, had announced plans to expand to
