Airline Reservations Software

Reservations Management System

From McCall Aviation website:  'McCall Aviation is an air charter company and fixed-base operator (FBO) based in central Idaho. With a fleet of fourteen airplanes, McCall Aviation specializes in charters to the backcountry and city-to-city flights throughout the intermountain West. The company operates two full service facilities (McCall and Salmon) along with seasonal operations in Stanley and a counter and gate in Boise that provide passenger services.'

In 2003 we were contracted to develop a flight booking and reservation software system for McCall Aviation located in Idaho.  One of the most challenging aspects of the database was the requirement to generate flight manifests with point and click functionality.  This feature included gathering passenger reservations and assigning to airplanes and then assigning pilots and co-pilots to the flights.

Airline reservations software key functions are:

• Real time entry of flight reservations during telephone calls

• Maintenance of returning customer database functions

• Group reservation by date and time to dispatch fights

• Assign pilots and plans to dispatched flights

• Multi-leg flights with partial passenger list segment dropoff

• Create various reports for process management

Below is a thumb nail of the airline reservations software data review screen.  The reservation entry screen is similar, but optimized for fast data entry:

Aggregation of flights, assignment of pilots and plans are all handled on a multi-function screen which is highly optimized for this purpose.  Note the moveable popup windows which keep tabs on pilot and plane assignments.

Thousands of reservations have been handled by this system with no degradation in performance.
