Description of the issue: When not using ALT-N to start the engine but manually going from dark & cold the option to board the VIP passengers vanishes. If contacting ground to have them starting boarding, a bus is sent with 7-8 passengers which then try to cram into the 3 available seats. No VIP transfer car arrives and the quick button to have the VIP boarding started is unavailable. Instead, only the option to shut down the engine with STRG Shift E is displayed in mission steps.

Have you tried loading the passengers first before starting the engine. I think that’s the sequence that’s required. You can then still go through the full engine start procedure if you want without usine Alt-N or Ctrl-E whatever key bind is being used.
Yes, that works but I don’t want to have them sitting next to me when I am fiddling with the startup procedure. That’s why I believe this is a bug since it’s essentially game braking if one doesn’t stick to board them first. It should be the pilot’s decision when to call for boarding imho.
