if ya want a nice, high money per minute route, engines from Planet LA to Freeport4. the run takes about 4 minutes, 5 if TL get's disrupted. It's one TL, 1 JG, 1 more TL. quick and easy. then carry water back (better than being empty)

it makes 382 bucks per unit carried (round trip). takes about 8 minutes round trip

if ya break that down to profit per unit per minute, that's 48 bucks per unit per minute (round trip).

i can do my run about 9 times an hour without having to set waypoints.

trust me, i've boke it all down using math, and if ya want cash quick, this is the route. and it's all in lowie areas, once ya get a humpback, ya can rack up the money with VERY little worry about combat.

(i copied this from another thread) This is the shortest & most profitable per hour if you want to amass money quickly:

Planet New Berlin, New Berlin, -> Yanagi Depot, Sigma 13 -> Planet New Berlin, New Berlin

Buy Engine Components @ 225 and sell @ 524 Profit 299
Buy Cardamine @ 510 and sell at 1,349 Profit 839
Total profit per tonne per round trip 1,138

Time taken for a round trip LESS THAN 5 MINUTES! (12 – 14 round trips per hour)

So if you get yourself a dromedary (275 cargo) you could earn in excess of 4 MILLIONS per hour 1138 x 275 x 13=4,068,350

First off, the New Berlin<->Sigma-13 jumphole is not useable in MP, you have to go through Frankfurt. Second, you're talking about smuggling contraband that will get the police on you if you don't watch out for them, AND the jumphole in New Berlin is in an asteroid field with lots of Hessians in it... the original poster was asking for a safe run.

that new berlin -> sigma 13 is only good in SP though, the jumphole you need is diabled in MP.

If I had a nickel for every time someone told me that my idea of building a giant robotic parrot out of melted down coins was a bad idea, I would have one kick a$$ giant robotic parrot.

Actually once you get a Drone/Dromedary, you can make boring and safe cash route in Kusari system. Simply buy Luxury goods from New Tokyo and sell them at Planet Kyushu for $190 profit each. Guaranteed NO combat since Blood Dragons and Golden C. is not hostile by default. On Kyushu, buy Niobium and sell those off at New Tokyo for $100 profit each. Considering it's such a safe and short jump, I think it's the one for you.

If you want more profit and low risk, I recommend New Tokyo to Colorado route.
Pick up Engine Components in Kusari System and sell it at $500 profit each and buy Luxury Consumers Goods and sell those in New Tokyo for $600 profit each.
You'll probably encounter lane hackers, xenos, liberty rogues on the way but they hardly pierce a Drone's Shield much.

Instead of that inter-Kurasi system route, I have a better one.

Planet Honshu(engines) ---> Deshima Station(194 profit)
Deshima Station(super conductors) ---> Planet Honshu(220 profit)
