DHK/BCS (DHL Air UK / European air transport)

The above may show a trend ;-)

- Virgin Atlantic
Uhm.......VS? Austin Danger Powers, VS are DEFINITELY not a LIDO FP customer (they use F:WZ) and therefore other participants on this forum should also take you "40%" claim with a kilo of salt....

Maybe you would like to enlighten us how Hangar89 are loving LIDO and are optimizing like there is no tomorrow with all the crews loving it.....

Exactly - 'nuff said......

Just as an after thought.....anyone ever wonder why bmi who
use LIDO for their A330 dispatch
chose to stay well clear of LIDO for their new FP system?

@ Lauderdale
Looks like you have a kind of obsession, every time LIDO is mentioned on this forum you pipe in with your negative comments.
Bad experience? Being paid by some other provider?
Anyway, its a fact that its a good system and even with the huge price tag most of the leading airlines choose it...looks like a very successful system after all. BTW the LIDO sales guys are top notch (that might be your problem ), not yet matched by the support team
But when Austin got one airline wrong its reason to question everything!

Happy planning everybody whatever system you use!

@Lauderdale

Correction:
VS is not using LIDO OC. They just use the LIDO electronic Flight Bag ("Skybook")

and by the way: just check Lufthansa Systems - Full-Service - Airline - Aviation - IT-Provider and you will find every detail about the 40% (LIDO calculated OFP´s within europe) and much more.

All BMI longrange OFP´s are calculated by LH Dispatch. BMI never did that on their own, because they dont have any experiance in calculating ETOPS OFP´s.

Most mayor airliners worldwide are working with LIDO and they know why.Seems that your Airline is not using it. Bad luck for you.

so long stranger.....

Shibulsky - having worked with a airline for over 10 yrs who used lido I can best describe it as marrying a russian mail order bride, you're all excited when you when see it and its all roses before she arrives, after your married all she is after is your money.

In regards to the sales guys - I am not in the market to buy a sales guy, I want a CFPS.....

ADP - the topic of the post is flight planning systems not EFB's.

GOL

Just a small correction, GOL do not currently use LIDO for flight planning, but maybe for other services.

Haven't used LIDO myself so not going to comment on it...

Cheers,
