InteliSys Aviation Systems of America Inc. announced that it has entered into a multi-year agreement with VIVA Macau, Macau’s first Low Cost Airline. Under the terms of the agreement, InteliSys will provide VIVA Macau with its hosted passenger management and reservation system which it markets under the trade name “amelia.” The agreement will see InteliSys deliver its amelia RES module, supported by several companion modules.
VIVA Macau chief executive officer Andrew Pyne stated: “The selection of a reservation and distribution system provider is a critical decision for any airline. We chose InteliSys for their ability and willingness to adapt their systems to the markets we intend to serve.
Commenting on the new partnership, InteliSys President and CEO Ralph Eisenschmid said, “Being selected by the VIVA Macau team is extremely important to InteliSys. Our extensive research into the Asian travel industry allowed us to make several key enhancements to the amelia system, adapting it to this unique market. This collaborative effort with VIVA Macau has resulted in the amelia RES system supporting business processes unique to Chinese and Asian markets, and has further differentiated InteliSys from its competitors. We expect other carriers to follow in VIVA Macau’s steps now that the amelia system can be referenced as a solution tailored specifically to this rapidly expanding market.”
Eisenschmid continued, “Industry experts continue to predict tremendous growth in the airline sector in China and the surrounding areas. The Chinese government has commitment to invest heavily in aviation and airports. We are pleased to be associated with the early adopters and visionary airlines.”
InteliSys management estimates the agreement with VIVA Macau will contribute to the company’s revenues for 2006 by 8% to 10% during the last 6 months of the 2006 fiscal / calendar year.
VIVA Macau, the first low cost airline in Macau, will begin its Boeing 767 operations later this summer with services between Macau and destinations in Asia.
“amelia” is InteliSys’ proprietary, integrated suite of airline management tools designed specifically for the rapidly growing Low Fare Airline market. The “amelia” solution is delivered over the internet from InteliSys data centres.
