Quick answer

Quick take

Courier missions are one of the easiest ways to earn early credits because they teach navigation and consistency without a lot of pressure.

  • Your first goal is one clean delivery, not an optimized route.
  • Courier missions are one of the easiest ways to earn early credits because they teach navigation and consistency without a lot of pressure.
  • Your first goal: complete one clean delivery loop — then repeat it once before upgrading.
  • Avoid multi-stop or confusing jobs until the basic loop feels automatic.

Do this now

  1. Accept a single pickup → single dropoff courier contract.
  2. Fly directly to pickup, grab the package, then go straight to dropoff.
  3. Complete and cash out, then repeat the same type once.
  4. Scale only after consistency: faster ship handling, better route discipline, then bigger loops.
  5. If you keep failing, simplify: shorter distance, fewer steps.
