Long and short term schedule development and management is a very complex strategic element of profitable airline operations. With RAIDO’s powerful business logic tools, you will be able to automatically optimize your route network, taking into account such factors as: forecast cost and revenue, expected passenger demand, fleet and crew capacity, flight time limitations, code-share management, and much more.
RAIDO, as a decision support tool will be very flexible, so you can quickly and easily adjust and react to changing market demands to visualize, modify and optimize your route network. RAIDO will also help you to analyze, compare and produce alternative scheduling strategies, resulting in a more robust and profitable route network.
Another key feature in RAIDO is 3A – Automated Aircraft Availability. 3A is a unique marketing tool that automates processes for the Adhoc charter market, bringing aircraft charterers, tour operators and airlines closer together. Airlines can market and publish spare aircraft capacity in real time, so that other airlines, aircraft brokers and tour operators can easily see potential availability for aircraft chartering purposes.
In a rapidly changing situational environment, the day-to-day running of airline operations can be very demanding. We understand the importance of complete proactive control of your operational situation, as it changes and develops. Flights can be delayed, diverted or cancelled due to air traffic restrictions, technical problems, adverse weather, or crew sickness etc.
RAIDO offers full operational decision support, enabling you to constantly monitor and react to operational developments in real-time.
RAIDO helps you to maintain the integrity of your flight schedule and quickly recover from any irregular operational disruptions.
With its powerful integral business logic, you will manage your fleet more efficiently and make the right financial and operational decisions for your airline.
The RAIDO Gantt displays flight information such as: departure/arrival information, delay reasons, adverse weather warnings, flight diversions, aircraft on ground, crew information, aircraft maintenance etc. Users can quickly and easily create, swap, move, and cancel flights interactively from the RAIDO Gantt. RAIDO also has sophisticated and flexible reporting tools, an integrated slot manager, send/receive message handling functionality and on-time performance tracking.
RAIDO will also feature a dynamic and rule based ‘Event Flow Manager’, which is completely user definable and is set up to suit your requirements. You can set up activities flow, using the RAIDO rule engine, and link it to a specific event. For more information, see “Automated”
One of the most cost sensitive areas for any airlines is of course, crew management. An airline not only needs to ensure their flights are covered by qualified and legal crew, but also that crew costs associated with crew assignment such as: hotel accommodation, crew transport and fatigue management etc, are all kept to a minimum. We understand that you need to analyze manpower demand, to have complete control over your crew utilization – pairings and assignment. We understand that you need to publish legal rosters, and have good two-way communication with your crew. We understand that you need to quickly and easily recover from operational disruptions to minimize costs, and maintain your network integrity.
RAIDO’s crew management solution will meet the needs of all kinds of airline business models, so you will be able to efficiently manage crew resources in both the long and short term. These include: manpower demand analysis, crew pairing optimizer, crew assignment optimizer (rosters), training planning, system alerts for unqualified or illegal crew, daily crew operations, and disruption management.
