Assist Carriers In Managing Flight Crews
Turkish Airlines, the third largest international carrier in Europe, has implemented a Crew Tracking solution developed by Jeppesen to help the airline manage its crew operations as the airline continues to expand its air service. By adding crew tracking to the crew pairing and crew rostering programs from Jeppesen already in use, Turkish Airlines says it can now optimize the management of their nearly 8,000 crew members and enhance overall operating efficiency.
“Turkish Airlines have been able to speed up the planning process and reduce our operating costs thanks to Jeppesen’s Crew Pairing and Crew Rostering products”, says Dr. Temel Kotil, president and CEO of Turkish Airlines. “Now we are very pleased to have Jeppesen Crew Tracking in production after a short implementation period. The product will strengthen our ability to be in full control on the day of operation and bring cost savings that will increase our competitiveness.”
“Turkish Airlines is one of the fastest growing commercial carriers in Europe and we are pleased to provide them with the top crew management solutions available to help reduce operating costs and increase on-the-job satisfaction for crew,” said Thomas Wede, Jeppesen senior vice president and general manager, Aviation.
Turkish Airlines has operated with crew pairings optimized by Jeppesen since 2006. With the upcoming implementation of the Jeppesen Manpower Planning solution, Turkish Airlines will adopt a fully integrated crew management system. The full Jeppesen system will provide the airline with a dynamic and efficient method for planning, tracking and interacting with crew, spanning long-term resource forecasting to the detailed decisions on the day of operation.
