Lufthansa Systems, an information technology service provider for the aviation industry will provide IT solutions to Icelandair, the flag carrier airline of Iceland for scheduling, slot management, codeshare management and schedule data exchange. The two companies recently signed a long-term contract for the Lufthansa Systems products NetLine/Sched and SchedConnect. Due to automation Icelandair will benefit from faster information flows and minimized sources of error. The airline can achieve that while still maintaining full control over the complete slot management process at all times.
The Slot Monitor ensures optimal control of slot utilization. It tracks and detects the impact of schedule changes on a slot’s historical rights at an early stage to prevent the loss of valuable slots. The solution includes sophisticated slot management and slot monitoring features which cover the complete slot handling process that includes the communication with airport coordinators and all processes required from the initial slot submission to the end of the respective schedule.
Lufthansa Systems is pleased to announce that Icelandair has opted for NetLine/Sched, the flight scheduling solution from the NetLine suite. “After Icelandair selected our products NetLine/Plan and NetLine Fleet Assigner to restructure their network, we are proud that our customer is convinced of the benefits of additional products from Lufthansa Systems and has demonstrated confidence in us in these challenging times in aviation,” said Marinna Craglietto, Sales Manager Lufthansa Systems.
