Jet2.com opts for navigation charts from Lufthansa Systems10-Jun-2010 |

The two companies recently signed a long-term agreement to this effect. With Lido/RouteManual, the British airline can benefit from the high quality of the navigation charts in terms of precision, data accuracy and user-friendliness while reducing costs. Lufthansa Systems' navigation charts are generated directly from its Lido navigation database. They include true-to-scale geographic information such as terrain features and rivers. The charts also include airport taxiway charts, approach and take-off charts, and a seamless worldwide route chart. The value of Lido/RouteManual lies in the easy legibility and the clear structure of the individual charts. This reduces the pilots' workload in the cockpit, especially during key flight situations such as take-off and landing. Jet2.com is a subsidiary of Dart Group plc, the aviation services and distribution group, which has 30 years’ commercial aviation experience. The airline operates a fleet of 29 aircraft and has seven bases across the UK serving over 50 destinations. |
