| TTSS. From the Inventor of Flight Scanning Technology in 1990 |
| |
| In 1990, the only way to check availability for Charter flights, was either to call the Tour Operator, look at the daily (or even hourly) faxes they sent, or log into 'Viewdata' and manually check a number of different suppliers systems. This was very time consuming, and a number of agencies only dealt with a small handful of suppliers. |
 |
| Using multiple PC's, our lead programmer designed a system that would automatically 'poll' a large number of Tour Operator's systems hourly, to produce a database of availability. This allowed agents to check many tens of tour operator's availability within seconds. |
 |
| All of a sudden, agencies using the 'flight-finder', were seeing massive growth and reduced costs, as their staff no longer needed to plough through either Viewdata or daily fax's, and reduced their telephone costs by more than 90% |
