This year's annual 'users conference' was, once again, a very successful event. Over 200 crew management professionals gathered in Dubai at the end of October to interact over a four-day period. The conference was graciously co-hosted by Emirates. These were intense days packed with demos, customer presentations, workshops, experience-sharing and networking and was a lot of fun. High on the agenda for many operators this year were topics of optimization and process integration.
In terms of fatigue risk management, Arvid Müllern-Aspegren held a dedicated session around applied fatigue risk control, and several operators addressed in the presentations their experiences from using BAM proactively for reducing risk in the crew management process. The greatly appreciated and detailed presentation by Cathay Pacific (picture) explained their usage of BAM for influencing the pairing optimization process.
All in all, customers and staff were in agreement that it was a great and highly valuable event, and we now all eagerly await and look forward to next years' conference, which will be co-hosted with Air Canada.
