Thanks
GC, what I had
imagined was: Departure Minus
N hours, the booking computer would hand the passenger list to a system that would have been told exactly which AC would operate the sector and it's seating config. The pax list would have these electronic tags applied:
- These two people booked together, even though their names are different.
- This is a family.
- These are infants in arms.
- These are infants with own seat allocation.
- These are Exec Club/equivalent and their requests for seating are ...
These can then be allocated to the machine, with meal and wheelchair requests handled in the same way. This might, in fact, all be handled directly by the booking system, but with a particular software module to apply the seating policy.
However, you seem to be saying that the allocation of seats is done manually? For
every sector? In 2006?? Surely not??
Globaliser I'm not sure who's more relieved??
