Travel Operations for Low-Cost Airlines
A lean, powerful platform to control crew travel costs, automate manual work, and manage disruptions without the overhead of enterprise software.
The LCC Challenge: Scaling Without The Cost Burden
Your lean operations team spends too much time on manual bookings for crew duty travel, training, and positioning.
A single disruption event leads to chaotic, expensive re-bookings, hotel scrambles, and uncontrolled spending.
It is difficult to enforce travel policies, track spend in real-time, and prevent budget leakage from out-of-policy bookings.
Reliance on spreadsheets, email, and phone calls to manage crew logistics creates errors and slows down your operation.
Juggling different booking portals and payment methods for hotels and transport leads to lost savings and reconciliation headaches.
You lack a single source of truth for crew travel data, making it hard to analyze costs and identify opportunities for savings.
A Lean Platform for Agile Operations
Implement hard-stop travel policies, spending limits, and budget guardrails that prevent overspending before it happens.
Connect to your rostering system to automatically book required flights and hotels for crew, reducing manual work by over 90%.
Use pre-built playbooks to manage disruptions. Re-book hotels and transport for all affected crew in minutes.
Access a global inventory of hotels, including budget-friendly options and your own negotiated rates, all in one place.
Simplify reconciliation with virtual cards, direct billing to a central account, and detailed, GL-coded financial reports.
A live dashboard shows you exactly what is being spent, by whom, and for what reason, giving you total financial control.
Go live in weeks, not months. Our lightweight platform is designed for lean teams and requires minimal IT resources to deploy.
Our platform grows with you, whether you are adding new routes, new bases, or new aircraft, without adding to your overhead.
From Disruption to Resolution in Minutes
Detect
A flight cancellation alert is received from an integrated flight data feed, automatically triggering an IROPS event.
Identify
The platform instantly flags all crew members scheduled for that flight and identifies their re-accommodation needs.
Execute Playbook
An OCC agent triggers a pre-configured 'Cancellation' playbook with one click, initiating automated re-booking actions.
Book Accommodations
The system automatically searches for and books compliant hotels and ground transport from a list of preferred, cost-effective suppliers.
Notify Crew
All affected crew members immediately receive new itinerary details, hotel confirmations, and transport info via SMS and in-app notifications.
Track Costs
All costs associated with the disruption—hotels, transport, fees—are automatically tagged to the event for precise financial analysis.
