Lufthansa Systems optimizes crew planning for Augsburg Airways

Augsburg Airways is introducing new modules to the NetLine/Crew solution from Lufthansa Systems that the regional airline has used for over ten years. This will optimize the carrier’s crew rostering and vacation planning processes. The NetLine/Crew Vacation Planning and NetLine/Crew CrewLink modules and an improved version of the Roster Requests module will enable Augsburg Airways to generate optimum rosters, simplify processes, reduce costs and offer its employees the greatest possible flexibility.

NetLine/Crew supports all phases of crew management, from crew pairing, rostering and tracking to post-flight evaluation, statistics and documentation. NetLine/Crew Vacation Planning is a special module with many advantages for the airline and its crews alike: Crew members get a fast, clear overview of their vacation days and planning options, while the airline enjoys economic benefits thanks to simpler planning and coordination. With NetLine/Crew CrewLink, crews can access all flight-related data via the Internet anywhere in the world. Finally, crew members can submit their preferred routes or duty days with the help of the Roster Requests module.

Augsburg Airways is a partner in the Lufthansa Regional alliance, offering flights across Germany and Europe. With a modern fleet of Dash 8-Q400 and Embraer 190/195 aircraft, the airline serves nearly 40 destinations from its base in Munich.
