Air Services: Case Studies
- Airport Authority Hong Kong
- Fully integrated IT makes passenger arrival and departure procedures, baggage collection and citywide connections hassle-free.
- American Airlines
- Based on migrating the initially selected business applications into the EDS Global Delivery Model, EDS helped American reduce its IT spend, and the airline was able to realize these benefits throughout 2006. The global model has introduced a “built-in” means of providing cost-efficient services, and American Airlines has a proven methodology that’s ready for future outsourcing.
- Icelandair
- Icelandair asked EDS to upgrade its legacy-based flight planning system to a more efficient, user friendly, and integrated solution. In so doing Icelandair set out with the major goal of reducing costs – especially for fuel – as well as to standardize flight planning processes and increase enterprise-wide visibility.
- Interjet
- An emerging airline, Interjet® wanted to launch its operations within a tight timeframe and with the highest standards of operational excellence. EDS helped the airline meet its launch date with market velocity.
- International Air Transport Association
- The International Air Transport Association's (IATA's) aging Cargo Account Settlement System (CASS), running on outdated technologies and disparate platforms in multiple countries, was becoming increasingly difficult to manage and use.
- Lufthansa Cityline
- A highly competitive market dictated that Lufthansa CityLine reduce operating costs and enhance its role in developing new routes and opening up new markets for its parent organization, Lufthansa Group.
- TUI AG
- With hundreds of flights in progress across Europe at any given time, Germany’s TUI needed a way to balance changing customer demand with the most cost-effective routes. EDS’ axsFlightplanning solution communicates in real time with reservations and crew-management systems to deliver maximum fuel efficiency without compromising service.
