Who will benefit from TakeFlite?
Small Airlines & Tour Operators who need to manage their businesses for more efficiency, growth, quality and profitability.  Reduce risk by increasing visibility and understanding.  Manage better.

Will it work?
We haven't failed yet.

My business is different and I've heard computer systems mean more work.  Will it be a hassle?
Lots of existing users doing lots of different things say they wouldn't go back.

How much does it cost to automate my business?
Budget for 0.5% of turnover with a small startup fee.  This level of investment makes sense in terms of the benefits that result, and compares well with other industries.  You can't do a comparable job for less.

How hard is it to get started?
From the first customer call to delivery, you can be up and running your own TakeFlite system in less than 24 hours, complete with your own fare schedule, logo and "look & feel".

Why shouldn't I get my mate down the road to whip something up?
Would you use a homebuilt aircraft for a commercial airline service?  No?  Why not?  The reasons for getting professionals with Small Business Airline/Tourism experience to provide your automation systems are much the same.  It costs a bit more, but there are costs to doing things on the cheap as well.  Takeflite incorporates years of understanding of the Aviation, Tourism, Small Business & IT environments.   

Who maintains the system once its setup for things like fare-schedules and terms & conditions?
You can.  Changing manifests and fares takes minutes not hours, unlike the products designed for use by major carriers.  We know you need flexibility to cope when the weather turns bad etc.

Will Takeflite have the legs to cope when my business expands?
Yes.

How reliable is the Takeflite service & how secure is my data?
Very.  If you're not housing your critical data in a Tier 1 Data Centre, you are probably taking unnecessary risks with your business. What would happen if you had a fire or burglary?  Takeflite de-risks your business.    TakeFlite Data Centre

Can I get screens & functions & reports customised for just what I need?
Yes.  Just bear in mind that the more complicated the things you want, the harder they get to setup, use & maintain.  We can work with you to sort out the good ideas from the bad.
