South Africa’s flag carrier, South African Airways, has chosen Singapore-based Laminaar Aviation Infotech’s ARMS software following a competitive global tender process. The Star Alliance carrier had specified its need for a one-stop solution that would address flight planning, aircraft tracking, electronic flight bag (EFB) services in line with its initiative to promote paperless cockpit operations, enhance crew efficiency and lower total cost of ownership.
For Singapore-based Laminaar, this is its fourth win in a row in the African region in the last seven months.
