Some highlights from the presentations included British Airways talking about their switch from bid lines to Strict Seniority PBS, SAS describing the implementation of lifestyle bidding, SWISS reflecting upon the recent Crew Tracking go-live experience (see more above), UTair highlighting the benefits they have seen from implementing Crew Pairing, Qatar Airways presenting innovative prototyping on their FRM process and Cathay Pacific explaining the complexities of their 747 freighter pairing problem. It was a truly great conference, the 25th in succession, and we are all already longing for next year's event when the gathering will be located in Dubai.
