EgyptAir makes SchedConnect from Lufthansa Systems a long term choice

Lufthansa Systems said that with SchedConnect EGYPTAIR can optimise its codeshare management, which leads to cost savings and higher revenues. The system offers a high degree of automation, calculating the optimum codeshare assignments based on the current flight schedules every day. Each month, the system processes up to 35 million schedule changes made by SchedConnect customers worldwide. If a minimum connecting time is violated due to a schedule change or if a partner flight is canceled, the system automatically assigns the marketing flight number to another suitable connecting flight. Changes are sent through the reservation systems to travel agents and customers as well as to the operations and passenger-related systems of the airlines involved.
