AirCrews application is used to manage and track the flight crew and cabin crew rosters and enable the
crew controller to respond the last minute changes, such as flight delays, schedule changes, or crew
member illness
In the process of creating a roster the system will interact with different other systems, such as Schedule
Manager, Kronos PBS and Kronos Pairing. The crew information’s and crew rosters information’s are
used by systems like Vine, Sabre Movement Manager, Propel, Data Warehousing systems (COGNOS)
and Oracle e Business suite (HR Module)
The Crew rosters will be prepared by Kronos Altitude Systems (Kronos PBS and Kronos Pairing) and
published in the AirCrews Systems based on parameters and rules setup by Enterprise Bargaining
Agreement.
Different set of rules are used to prepare the crew rosters for all the three types of airline business in
Virgin Australia. The short haul, long haul and the New Zealand airlines follow some specific rules of
CASA.

Sabre Airline Solutions – Southlake, TX Apr'2008 – Aug’ 2014
The Sabre® AirCentre™ Movement Manager system is an advanced decision support system used by
operations controllers to monitor daily flight movements and assist in making informed decisions.
Movement Manager enables air carriers to operate competitive schedules with minimal disruption, meet
passenger demand, and maximize aircraft and resource utilization. It also allows user to manage daily
operation safely, efficiently, and proactively under both regular and irregular conditions. The Movement
Manager addresses three main functions:
• Recovering the schedule – suggests aircraft assignments (swapping across fleet types), flight delays,
and cancellations to solve existing schedule disruptions.
• Recovering the aircraft – determines the revised aircraft routing and identifies flights that cannot be
covered in the proposed schedule.
• Maintains passenger flow – evaluates the origin destination impact of schedule changes suggested by
the system or manually generated by the airline controller
Data into the system can come from many external systems (Sabre or Non Sabre). Movement Manager
uses IBM MQ Series and/or ActiveMQ to communicate to external systems that sends data to and from
MM in form if IATA standard messages in different formats (XML and Flat files etc.). These message are
then validated and processed according to the business rules of different modules.
Movement Manager receive and process
o Crew assignment and de assignment information from crew manager.
o Passenger information (Booked, Load and Connecting passenger) from different systems.
o Fuel on Board information (e.g. Sabre ACARS manager) in the form of IATA standard messages.
o Gate and Terminal information in the form of IATA standard messages.
o Maintenance messages (CFPADVC and MELADVC) from airline's maintenance system.

Sabre Travel Network– Southlake, TX Apr'2007 – Mar'2008
Rate Assured/HotelVision project consist of reports specifications created in Cognos reporting
environment. Every week based on this specifications report outputs are produced by using the “burst”
feature for hotels which rates were not in parity. The Rate Assured reports are only generated when it is
found that one or more properties for a hotel chain or company is offering rates on other distribution
channels (such as Hilton.com) that are lower than the rates they are offering through Sabre. These
reports are delivered to customers via emails as attachments with personalized content. Customer data
and other delivery information are stored in Teradata Warehouse. There are three kinds of reports: Chain,
Company and Reseller. If a hotel chain or company is in compliance “congratulatory” email is sent to
notify the customer that everything it was doing good that week. In such case there is no attachment only
an explanation why they didn’t received a report and congratulation message.

The BA AirOps middleware provides the interface between AirOps – Movement Manager and existing BA
systems (FICO, EWS, COSI and RTO). The BA AirOps Middleware have two parts (a) FICO Transaction
Handler (FTH) and (b) JMS MQ Interface (JMI). The FTH functions between AirOps Movement Manager
and the Mainframe TPF system FICO. The JMI routs the various messages from AirOps Movement
Manager to RTO, COSI, EWS and FICO system.
The messages are received in a text mode or in an XML format from the different systems like
AirOps, EWS, COSI, RTO, etc. These messages are then transformed and send across to the target
system.

The context of this project is the integration of Air Miles into the BA Exec Club/BA Miles scheme. The
project will provide Air Miles customers with a means of migrating from the current Air Miles scheme to
the BA Exec Club and BA Miles scheme
The project provides a means for Air Miles customers to convert their Air Miles to BA Miles, and if not
already Exec Club members, to enroll into the BA Exec Club as ‘Blue’ members. Air Miles members who
do not migrate will either burn their Air Miles during the closing down period, or lose them. The
opportunity will also be taken to promote AMEX to members who do migrate, as per existing processes.
