UDAN Scheme Set to Gain Traction as TruJet Partners With IBS Software

Hyderabad -based TruJet is the first Indian airline to be granted license by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to operate on all UDAN sectors. Largely a regional airline thus far, TruJet will, through the UDAN scheme, emerge as a mainstream player in the aviation map of India . The airline currently operates a fleet of 5 ATR aircrafts and has signed an agreement with 9W to wet lease 10 more ATR aircrafts. UDAN ( Ude Desh ka Aam Naagrik- ) is a regional airport development and regional connectivity scheme of the Government of India , launched in 2017, to make flying affordable for the masses, while promoting a balanced regional growth across the country.

IBS' iFly Res, one of the first New Distribution Capability (NDC) compliant PSS systems in the world, comprehensively addresses all the key functions including passenger reservations, schedules and flight control, inventory control, fares & ticketing and departure control. Once implemented, iFly Res will help TruJet in the dynamic management of blocked and free-sale inventory, real-time visibility on operations and quick decision making which provides a platform for an improved level of customer service and cost optimization. The SaaS based reservation solution will also enable TruJet to integrate seamlessly with other partner airlines for codeshare operations as well as future goods distribution. IBS Software offers end-to-end IT systems covering diverse process areas - passenger services, cargo operations, flight and crew operations, airport operations and aircraft maintenance engineering - giving it the unique position as the company that provides the widest range of IT products to the aviation industry in the world.
