Leaving many gamers confused at seemingly obvious yet hidden travel trick, Reddit user Sjsjshdhxh posted a short 19-second clip onto the Grand Theft Auto Online subreddit. The video starts with the Sjsjshdhxh on outer skirts of the anti-scale fencing that guards the perimeter of the airport, located to the south of La Puerta. Once inside a vehicle, Sjsjshdhxh speeds towards one of the conveniently placed stunt ramps that leads into the airport: a common entry method for the community. However, Sjsjshdhxh reveals the trick after they swerve away from the ramp and gently drive through a pair of unlocked gates that are normally obscured by the ramp.
In hindsight, this method of entry is so glaringly apparent, yet Sjsjshdhxh’s post went viral with over 7,600 upvotes as many users came together to discuss and chat about how all these years since Grand Theft Auto Online has been out for, this method of entry has gone widely unrecognized by many players. Although out of all the responses to the post, one upvoted comment perfectly encapsulates the entire community’s reaction to the video, as they state that “I’ve been playing GTAO since it came out… I never knew about these.”
It will be interesting to see if more travel tips and tricks arise when GTA Online migrates to PS5 and Xbox Series X. After all, considering the next-generation version of the game aims to expand and enhance the experience within Los Santos, there are certainly going to be curious adventurers that will scour every crack and crevice of the map to see if there are any notable discrepancies or modifications.
Grand Theft Auto Online is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One, with PS5 and Xbox Series X versions launching March 18.
