Who will benefit from Takeflite?
Airlines or Tour Operators with business activities equivalent to an annual turnover of AU$0.5-100M, who need a comprehensive online english language information management service to facilitate efficiency, growth, quality and profitability e.g. airlines expanding or under competitive or regulatory pressure or looking to reduce risk. 

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 will Takeflite pay its way?
You can take on more business with fewer staff needed for the same amount of business.  There will be fewer mistakes and less time wasted fixing mistakes.  You will increase sales with a real-time online ecommerce website and listing seats via online retailers like mixandmatch.co.nz.  You will have the real-time information you need to optimize the use of your available resources for meeting customer demand.  Just as importantly,  reliable accurate information systems help you sleep at night.

My business is different and I haven't had much success with computers.  Will Takeflite work?
30+ scheduled and charter airlines with quite different requirements say Takeflite works for them.

How hard is it to get started?
From the first customer call to delivery, you can be up and running with your own TakeFlite site in less than 24 hours, complete with your own fare schedule, logo and "look & feel".  In terms of realising business benefit, prioritise your biggest need(s) first and grow from there.

Why shouldn't I get my own system built?
Because building and maintaining a software system is complicated, expensive (AU$40K+ just to get started) and risky, with about a 10% chance of ending with something worthwhile.  Accountants do your end of year tax and lawyers do you important legal work;Takeflite provides your management software service.  Takeflite incorporates years of understanding of Aviation, Tourism, Business & IT.   

Who maintains the system once its setup for things like fare-schedules and terms & conditions?
You do.  Changing manifests and fares takes minutes not hours and provides the flexibility to optimize yield management and cope when an aircraft is out for maintenance.

Will Takeflite have the legs to cope when my business expands?
Yes.  Sited in Australias largest data centre, TF sits on load balanced front end web servers which store all your important information in SQLServer Databases.  

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