The airline is one of a growing number of carriers on the continent that have turned to SITA to provide technology solutions to better manage their passenger operations. Already 15 airlines and ground handlers in Africa use SITA’s Horizon Passenger Management and Distribution solution, while 100 airlines and ground handlers around the globe have used it to board more than 123m passengers and check in 158m travellers each year.
Horizon offers the most comprehensive, integrated range of passenger management services available today. Its infrastructure is built on a flexible platform of core systems required by every airline, allowing each carrier to customise the system to meet their specific business requirements and to accommodate future growth.
Air Senegal, the west African country’s new national airline, turned to SITA to provide a full suite of services to include reservations, ticketing, airfare distribution and departure control. This will support the launch of the airline’s first flights later this year.
