As part of its efforts to improve on-time performance and customer service, Gulf Air has introduced AirOps, which the company calls "one of the world's most advanced flight management systems," reported the Gulf Times on Thursday.
AirOps, which is a system used by many of the world's leading airlines and has been enhanced and customized by Gulf Air over the last 12 months for its own use, allows a real-time visual display and control of the airline's entire fleet, an official said.
In addition to providing each individual aircrafts scheduled and actual flight information over a five-day period, it carries comprehensive passenger data, including passenger numbers by seating class and flight transfer details.
Tariq Hatim Sultan, assistant vice president of information technology, asserts that AirOps is a major advancement in aircraft monitoring and fleet management, which will provide benefits to passengers in terms of flight punctuality and regularity.
Gulf Air has been exclusively appointed as the official airline sponsor of the Arab International Business Travel and Meetings (AIBTM 2002) exhibition, to be held in Bahrain on January 30 and 31, said the paper – Albawaba.com
