Key for Cost-Control During Expansion, and Providing Exact Information to Customers GREENWICH, Conn., Sept. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Megadata Corporation (OTC:MDTA) announced today that US Airways has contracted for PASSUR applications at US Airways' major hubs and large Northeast stations to help improve baggage and on-time performance and enhance the customer experience in a cost-effective way. PASSUR applications began rolling out at Phoenix, Philadelphia, Charlotte, New York LaGuardia, and Washington National August 1. "We're excited by the savings and improved customer satisfaction that will come from the proper integration of the product into the work systems of US Airways. We anticipate eventually implementing additional PASSUR applications in multiple phases throughout the airline," said David Seymour, Vice President Operations Control and Planning for US Airways. "We're excited to be delivering our targeted solutions, focusing on the Systems Operations Center as well as their individual stations," said Ron Dunsky, Megadata Vice President of Marketing and New Product Development. "We've been impressed by US Airways' methodical approach to their solution purchase and look forward to a thriving partnership," said Jim Barry, Megadata President and CEO. PASSUR airline solutions are realized through the integration of pinpoint prediction of arrival times, instant airspace analysis, and thorough post- operations evaluation tools. In the first phase, US Airways will be using PASSUR solutions at the station operations level to: -- Improve aircraft "met at the gate" numbers, so that airplanes are not waiting for staffing at gates to complete their flights; -- Provide more timely and accurate information about meeting airplanes to improve baggage handling and dependability; -- Optimize hold/no-hold decisions -- PASSUR helps airlines make better decisions about releasing flights in time for connections; and -- Analyze historical databases, allowing improved post-operative evaluations. The next phase of implementation will focus on System Operations issues, including: -- Optimized fuel management through more accurate predictions of aircraft hold times in the terminal airspace; -- Real-time decisions support to mitigate diversions related to weather and ATC issues; and -- Continued evaluation of airport/airspace utilization allowing improved operational decisions.
