Flight Planning System
It takes a bit of getting used to but Jeppesen (jetplan.com or jetplanner) have the best flight planning system in my opinion. They make ETOPS planning a snap and they can tailor make your contract so it usually saves you money in the long run. Contact Ben Watkins at their Gatwick office for more info.
If you're a scheduled operator I've heard LIDO is worth the expense.

The new system is indeed looking rather fancy...but is also extremely user friendly and the system should be fully operational within a few months. In the interim the current dated, but more than adequate package is perfectly reasonable.
The company has come on leaps and bounds in the past few years and, with their customer base, are now a major player that can be considered up there with Jepps / SITA.
And although I am a user, we recently looked at other packages, and when all was said and done (and without any bias towards existing customer ethic) it was clearly the best all rounder.
If you are looking for reasonably priced, full functionalilty flight planning software, then in my mind you've got nothing to loose by giving mfarrar a call..
Feel free to PM me for further info if you want it.

Hi CRJlover,
I worked well with PPS,LIDO,Jepp an now EDS (Skytrack)
Could tell you,that it all depends what your needs are.
PPS is cheap and Ok for small companies or private owned corp flying europe. Tehy are working on an Internet based application.
I`ll guess something same like from UVair.
EDS, with what I am working now, is easy to use, fast, reliable and worldwide ops possible.Including is a very useful graphics interface (flight globe) where you can see your flight on a worldmap including Awy,FIRs,Areas,VOR,NDB,Waypoints and other useful stuff.
Cost are between Jepp and LIDO.
LIDO would only be helpful for mayor airlines and is used by LH,AirBerlin,LHCargo, Condor....very expensive!
Jepp for me is not very friendly to work with and had too much flaws.
But as always in this cases.....this are just my 2 cents!
Best regards
