A Christchurch company's revolutionary software is about to take
to the skies in Europe and could soon be on its way to United States
airspace.
Forte Solutions' brainchild, the Geneva suite of airline
operations management software, has won over two key London- based
airlines -- British Mediterranean Airways and Astraeus, Britain's
newest airline operating out of Gatwick, London, and Manchester.
Astraeus, which will launch airline operations this month with
five Boeing 737 aircraft, aims to become the leading independent
supplier of aircraft capacity in the 150-seat market for inclusive
tour and contract charter flights.
