Verkar som allt har gått bra!
During the weekend of 25FEB12-26FEB12, Scandinavian Airlines (SK), Blue 1 (KF) and Widerøe (WF) migrated succesfully to Amadeus IT solution - Altéa.
Altéa is the same IT system most STAR Alliance and other European airlines already use. With this system change, the SAS Group carriers will be able to offer many new products as they are developed and deployed for your market by the GDS’s.
Below you will find information about the new products that are implemented from the system change and later during 2012.
Och lite förändringar på gång också, vissa redan aktiverade. Här är lite som berör Amadeus, Travelport och Sabre. Vet dock inte riktigt vad allt betyder.
