One of the many properties that one can claim ownership of in Grand Theft Auto (GTA) Online is a Hangar. Across the map of Los Santos and Blaine County, there are a total of five purchasable hangars available. Here are all of them, along with their price tags:

  • Fort Zancudo A2 - $3,250,000
  • Fort Zancudo Hangar 3499 - $2,650,000
  • Fort Zancudo Hangar 3479 - $2,085,000
  • LSIA Hangar 1 - $1,525,000
  • LSIA Hangar A17 - $1,200,000

Hangars can not only act as safehouses but can also help players in making a lot of money. They are also essential for some of the gameplay features in GTA Online. Here is a list of five things that make the Hangar worth buying post the Los Santos Drug Wars DLC.


Access to many planes and 4 more things that make the Hangar worth buying in GTA Online post Lost Santos Drug Wars

1) Good way to make money

Once players purchase a Hangar, they can start sourcing and selling crates containing various goods. Rockstar Games has also raised its payout recently, making it one of the best ways to get money in GTA Online.

Earlier, each player could make a measly $10,000 per crate. Now, that amount has tripled in value. Moreover, an additional bonus is rewarded for selling a particular number of crates in a specific combination of goods. This has made Hangars quite a profitable commodity.


2) Interesting Resupply and Sell missions

The time-limited Hangar missions are known as Air Freight Cargo missions in GTA Online. Players need to access the computer located in the Hangar office to start sourcing crates. Resupply missions have their own sub-categories but are quite easy to complete.

Once crates have been sourced, players can sell them all at once or separately. The Air Freight Cargo Sell missions are easily some of the best business-related Sell missions in the game and offer a unique set of challenges. Not only are they fun to play, but their variety keeps the experience fresh and adds to the replayability.


3) Access to many planes

Out of the five Hangar locations available, it is best to choose one located in Fort Zancudo. Their position on the map offers the best connectivity while playing missions and saves time. Additionally, players can explore Fort Zancudo, a highly restricted military airbase, at their leisure.

This grants them easy access to a lot of fighter jets and helicopters. Furthermore, the Air Freight Cargo Sell missions allow players to fly aircraft like the FH-1 Hunter, Alpha Z1, Nagasaki Havok, and many more. Since planes are quite expensive, this is a great chance of test-riding them.


4) Mandatory for storing bought aircraft

Grand Theft Auto Online has a huge catalog of cars, bikes, boats, and aircraft. They are of different types and available for varying prices. Once players accumulate enough money, they can spend it on some of the best planes in GTA Online. However, owning a specific storage space is mandatory for purchasing any vehicle.

This game's experience remains incomplete without getting the chance to fly planes. Since hangars are the only way to store bought aircraft, they are definitely worth buying.


5) Only way to customize aircraft

Like all other vehicles in the game, players can also customize the aircraft they own. However, there are no dedicated modification shops like Los Santos Customs for this purpose. The only way to do this is by buying a Hangar and installing the workshop upgrade to it.

By customizing planes in GTA Online, players can add several new features to them. Countermeasures, handling upgrades, engine upgrades, and armor are some customization categories available. This makes the Hangar worth buying post the Los Santos Drug Wars DLC.
