I personally can’t play the beta so I have to ask you guys.
1) Do airways exist now?
2) Does directing work now?
3) Do nautical waypoints exist now and are they programmable in the mcdu (like 56N020W)
A few questions regarding the update

3) Do nautical waypoints exist now and are they programmable in the mcdu (like 56N020W)On PC at least, airways now exist, but the flightplanner doesnt use real world airway directions, so if you use simbrief/navigraph, you may get a warning that your route is in the wrong direction for some airways.
Haven't checked Direct-To, it is implemented for the smaller Airbus, I only fly the A350.
North altlantic and Pacific tracks have always existed/or at least partially exist in the sim: they show up in the ND, we still can't manually enter them into the MCDU/FMGS
I completed a flight from JFK to Doha last week, my imported simbrief flight plan didnt pick up the waypoints, but i could see them enroute

I'm curious because the beta version of fs4 I was running wasn't showing any airways in the flight planner.

Same I also fly the a380 and a350 only and I believe it's currently for a320 family. It shouldn't be hard to implement it honestly.

Unfortunately, it doesn't show in the Menu flight planner at present. Only in the MCDU.
Airways Q576 & G462 are high-altitude RNAV corridors; the entire planet is covered now, AFAIK. But as mentioned, some airways are one-directional in real life; the flight planner doesn't care, but that's asking a bit too much. It's only an issue when using flight planners like SimBrief
I tend not to use the built-in flight planner; I created my own flight planner that reads SimBrief. For some reason, the Oceanic waypoints have never fully displayed in the sim flight planner; you really have to zoom in. But they do all seem to exist in the sim

Am talking about the mcdu. Are you sure these things aren’t implemented?
