KLM cityhopper continues to optimize its crew management and operations control using NetLine/Crew, NetLine/Ops and NetLine/Ops Maintenance Control from Lufthansa Systems for another three years
A contract to this effect was recently signed between the two partners. This agreement extends the good, trust-based cooperation between the Dutch airline and the IT provider which started in 2001.
NetLine/Crew covers all aspects of crew management and ensures the efficient use of crew resources. KLM cityhopper uses NetLine/Ops and NetLine/Ops Maintenance Control in order to optimize the day-to-day operation, considering the aircraft utilization as well as maintenance issues.
The integrated use of the NetLine products allows the Dutch airline to gain flexibility in its operations and to explore additional cost saving potentials. KLM cityhopper will be able to quickly and reliably run through various scenarios, generate plans and make decisions.
This is made possible by the high degree of automation and the flexibility of the solution which has secured a leading position in its segment.
KLM cityhopper is a 100% subsidiary of KLM, part of the Air-France-KLM group. The airline runs a large part of the European network of KLM. Within the KLM framework, KLM cityhopper runs 270 flights a day to 45 destinations. In addition, the Dutch airline also offers customised ad hoc flights to third parties.
Its fleet consists of 53 aircraft, including 2 Embraer 190, 18 Fokker 100, 21 Fokker 70 and 12 Fokker 50.
