Over 200 crew management professionals world-wide attended the Jeppesen webinar last month called 'Crew Management Support During the COVID-19 Crisis'.
The webinar explained in more detail how to deal with crew teaming in both the pairing and the rostering process. It is increasingly important to look at how to avoid over-exposing crew to contact with too many other crew, in order to reduce the risk of spreading infections. By keeping crew together in teams, the risk of many crew being quarantined if one person is found to be infected, is also greatly reduced.
The webinar covered a number of alternative strategies to accomplish both 'full' teaming as well as promoting a large amount of teaming, without enforcing it strictly. It also covered controlling the 'cost' of acheiving teaming, in terms of impact on other planning KPIs. Also covered were methods for quick and frequent re-planning of crew using optimizers.
Please contact your Jeppesen representative or service manager if you missed out on this great seminar, and we can provide a summary or a recording.
