Vancouver, 19 June 2018. Cebu Pacific, the leading carrier in the Philippines, has signed an agreement with Industrial Optimizers to implement MP2 as its multifunctional network planning, scheduling and analysis tool.
Cebu Pacific will use MP2 as its core network planning, scheduling and analysis solution, including slot management, fleet assignment, and other planning support functionalities. MP2’s Clean Sheet Scheduler will let Cebu Pacific model different route network scenarios based on financial data, while MP2’s Sequential Timetable Server (SeTS), which includes change, version and message management will allow a seamless and efficient integration with Cebu Pacific’s existing reservation, and airline operations systems.
