The latest hotfix arrived for Microsoft Flight Simulator across Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and PC yesterday, and while it isn't mentioned in the release notes, the patch appears to have fixed Quick Resume support on Xbox Series X|S.
Fans have taken to social media to report that Quick Resume is now working properly for them with Flight Sim following the hotfix, as while support was previously in place, it only seemed to work for certain players and not others.
The rest of the patch notes aren't overly exciting, targeting areas such as "fixing ground level of detail (low resolution) when flying at airliner altitudes", and “'washed out / oil painted' clouds and the overall luminosity under cloud coverage".
It's great that a game like Flight Sim can benefit from Quick Resume, as it means you can instantly jump back into a multi-hour flight if you can't complete it all in one sitting. Let's just hope no further issues arise with it.
Have you been using Quick Resume with Microsoft Flight Sim on Xbox Series X|S? Tell us below.

Annoyingly the quick resume update (added automatically) stopped me returning to a transatlantic flight I’d been working through for about 4 days!
@elpardo1984 Are you doing that in a Cessna 152 or something? 4 days for a transatlantic flight is insane!
@notleks_ I think he means he’s been at 4 days in small chunks.
@notleks_ yeah I was doing it in stages. I was over Long Island but didn’t want to rush landing and taxi so stopped when I came back later it was running the update so had quit out the game to update!
You can save part way through a flight to by pausing the game and pressing the View button in case anyone didn't know
@VOODOO85 thanks for the advice.
Flight sim is definetly a game that needs quick resume. I dont have time for 12 hour flights im one go. Haha.
Excellent news. I actually played it a bit less compared to the F1 game and Yakuza game I have on the go as well due to the long opening load time (Quick resume is so good it's making my tolerance for loads much lower)
Very quick update for this as well from MS. Nice one.
Does anyone else not really trust quick resume anymore? Like after the massive glitch in hellblade (which stopped all achievements from popping) with quick resume i rarely use it.
Have the fixed the other issues with the game?
I don't know that I've ever played a game that has crashed as much as this one. Pun not intended.
On top of that the search feature is absolutely broken. When typing in half the time you don't get results, others you have to search 3 or 4 times for it to go through before it'll actually find what you're wanting.
