The Companies Agree To A New Five-Year Charting Service
A five-year charting navigation service renewal agreement has
been signed by Jeppesen and Pegasus Airlines, a commercial carrier
based in Istanbul, Turkey. The agreement extends standard airway
manual paper charting service and digital Web access to
industry-leading Jeppesen charts through e-Link online and NavData
service applications for the airline.
A 20-year Jeppesen customer from its inception in 1990, Pegasus
Airlines is preparing to transition from using paper charts to
implementing full digital navigation information solutions, aided
by the new service agreement. Jeppesen e-Link online services
supplement paper airway manual charting through a Web-based
charting application, which is presented in a Windows operating
environment.
"Jeppesen charting solutions have provided reliable, trusted
navigation information for us for 20 years, and we are pleased to
come to an agreement that furthers this partnership as we look to
transition from paper-based information to digital services," said
Omer Kaya, Pegasus Airlines performance manager. "The combination
of paper chart manuals with online access provides us with reliable
navigation information that enables safe and efficient transport of
our passengers across the globe."
Through the agreement, Pegasus Airlines
also continues implementation of Jeppesen NavData services which
provide the airline with precise, GPS-based navigation information
for the flight deck while incorporating thousands of complex global
airspace changes. "Pegasus Airlines is a long-standing, 20-year
navigation information customer and we are pleased to continue
delivering solutions that help increase operational efficiency for
this respected commercial carrier," said Thomas Wede, Jeppesen
senior vice president and general manager, Aviation. "In today's
challenging business climate, we offer solutions that help airlines
transition to digital solutions that provide value by reducing
costs and time required for pre-flight preparation."
The new agreement provides charting services for a fleet of 27
Boeing 737 aircraft operated by Pegasus Airlines. The airline
currently serves more than 100 international destinations in 17
countries.
