Finnair continues cooperation with Lufthansa Systems
Finnish carrier to optimize flight planning with Lido OC
Long-time Lido OC customer Finnair decided to continue to use Lufthansa Systems’ Lido Operation Center (Lido OC) flight planning solution and has extended its existing contract for another five years. The OneWorld alliance member has been an established customer of Lufthansa Systems since 1997 and deploys a wide range of IT solutions from Lufthansa Systems’ portfolio.
Lido OC uses a large number of parameters to calculate the optimal route for each and every flight, thereby supporting airlines in minimizing their fuel and operating costs. With its modern technology and user-friendly architecture, Lido OC covers all aspects of flight planning and the associated follow-up processes. Drawing on its own database, Lido OC automatically calculates the ideal route between two airports and creates reliable and easy-to-understand briefing documents for each flight.
Finnair was established in 1923 and is one of the world's oldest operating airlines. Its route network covers 14 destinations in Finland and about 50 international destinations. In 2007 Finnair carried about 8.7 million passengers.
