Re: Starport traffic

My solution is to put 99.9 % of all trade into bulk carriers.
Huge ships starting at 10.000 tons, averaging 100.000 tons,
some of them reaching 500.000 tons. These ships would have
sceduled jumps planned for the next couple of decades, carrying
raw materials one way and finished goods the other. They would
never touch ground and the shuttes that service them would land
at special dedicated spaceports so they wouldn't interfere with
the luxury trade.
