• Strategic Objectives and
Requirements: Airline seats are a
perishable commodity. Their value
varies – at times of scarcity they’re
worth a premium, after the flight
departs, they’re worthless. The new
system had to develop an approach
to pricing while creating software
that could accommodate millions of
bookings, cancellations, and
corrections.
