Eurowings optimizes flight operations with OpenText

Eurowings implemented OpenText Exceed TurboX to help enable secure remote access to critical applications that manage flight operations while working remotely during the pandemic.

Eurowings, part of Lufthansa Group, relies on a highly graphical Unix application for flight planning operations. When the pandemic struck, the airline replaced its existing remote access solutions with Exceed TurboX, delivering more security, better connectivity, and improved efficiency.

"OpenText Exceed TurboX makes it quick and easy to manage flight operations, even with real-time changes like crew scheduling, weather disruptions and aircraft availability," explained Andreas Buxot, Expert Flight Operation Application, Eurowings. "Flight planning is critical for the aviation industry, and this solution is proving to be the single, stable, and secure solution, rich in the functionality that we needed. Our users are very happy."

"Over the last year, we have seen how business continuity and performance can be challenged in times of crisis," said Muhi Mazjoub, Chief Product Officer at OpenText. "Eurowings' decision to implement a remote access strategy was critical to protect the health and safety of their employees, while minimizing disruptions in productivity and operations.
