New South Korean low cost carrier Air Seoul has implemented aviation tech firm SITA’s Horizon Passenger Management and Distribution system.
Horizon offers a flexible management platform for check-in, boarding and various departure control and weight and balance activities.
SITA Horizon will also give Air Seoul distribution neutrality with access to every available channel, including all GDS and alliance and code share partners.
"Launching a new airline brings many challenges and it is vital to have strong partners supporting the new operations. SITA brought a depth of industry knowledge and commitment which has proven invaluable," said Ryu Kwang-hee, CEO of Air Seoul.
"It was introduced seamlessly and it is clear that the flexibility of this new generation system will support our growth in the future."
Operating under the Kumho Asiana Group, Air Seoul now flies to 10 destinations in five countries and plans to expand further during 2017.
. "Air Seoul selected SITA Horizon because of our experience in managing and delivering successful implementations, our knowledge and understanding of the Korean market practices and requirements," said Ilya Gutlin, SITA President, Asia Pacific.
