Korean Air added Lufthansa Systems scheduling solutions SchedConnect to manage its entire network scheduling. With SchedConnect, Korean Air will be able to manage and update its schedule with ease, even with the high volume of changes and extensive number of partnerships it maintains within the Asia Pacific region and beyond.
Last year, the airline added Lufthansa Systems’ planning and scheduling solutions NetLine/Plan and NetLine/Sched.
According to Lufthansa, the airline will benefit from the idea of a central flight repository and a central schedule database where the schedules of all customers and codeshare partners are saved in real time. This lets the airline cut down on the number of scheduling mistakes, avoid customer complaints and pricing mistakes, and get the most out of its codeshare connections.
“After the implementation of NetLine/Plan and NetLine/Sched last year, we are now pleased to deepen this partnership. Adding SchedConnect is an amazing step forward for Korean Air to manage and adopt entire network scheduling end-to-end solutions,” said Kazuya Ota, Vice President of Far East Asia and Taiwan at Lufthansa Systems. “For us, the further expansion of SchedConnect within the SkyTeam alliance is a great success.”
“SchedConnect is a sophisticated, multi-tenant system designed for codeshare management and schedule data exchange. The system is specifically designed to meet the needs of airlines operating in codeshare partnerships, which can be complex and time-consuming to manage manually,” said Korean Air.
