Benefits

Increases Revenue

Maximize revenue by identifying optimal departure times for seasonal schedules based on passenger behavior in the network as well as considering the operational restrictions for the airline.

Improve aircraft utilization by simultaneously adding a combination of operational and timing changes to the schedule.

Enhance strategic planning by performing a variety of strategic analysis to evaluate different times for flights. With the reduction mode in Network Manager, the system can also determine the mix of flights operating to several spoke stations based on the feasibility with the current aircraft inventory.

FeaturesNetwork Manager offers several advanced capabilities for optimizing the schedule on a typical week basis.

The global capabilities of the solution explicitly incorporates the network effects associated with passenger flows throughout the schedule.

Two run modes are available:

• Retimingmode:Selectsthemostoptimal flight times to ensure maximum connectivity through the hubs while honoring all the operational constraints. The solution supports over 20 different constraint options.

• Reductionmode:Optimallyselectsflightsand times from an overbuilt schedule and cancels flight segments based on either schedule profitability considerations or operational constraints.

Schedule re-timing allows you to adjust the schedule automatically through flight re-timings and ground time shaving (enabling sub-minimal aircraft turn times) to attain schedule feasibility and/or improve schedule profitability.

User interface features four main editing modes that enable you to setup, update and view results of their analysis using Analysis Editor, Constraint Editor and Report Viewer.
