Hey all, I'm curious how many airlines are using CrewTrac for crew coordination?

We've got it over here at Colgan and it seems as though it's down more than it works? What a major PITA...you try to log on to see your schedule and it doesn't work. Has anyone else had this experience or is it just another Colgan mess?

:confused::confused::confused:
 
HA! Pinnacle uses it. Yet another thing that probably won't be that hard to integrate. Be less than a year and you guys will have lost outstation basing and be on PBS, too. :)

Although ours' is up about 90% of the time.
 
Yeah, I don't know what they've been doing, but it's been really bad lately. It seems every time they take it offline for an "upgrade" it gets worse than it was before. At least they re-fixed the formatting!
 
The schedulers here have used it for years. We just got access to CrewWeb about 2 months ago. So far it seems to be up most of the time, although it's VERY slow. Right now all we can do is view our schedules or open time. In the future we (or so they tell us) will be able to pick up and drop trips in real time.

The best part about crew web was that for the first week or so we could see all the comments the schedulers had made about us going back a few years. They took that feature away after people started complaining about some of the things the schedulers had called them.
 
CrewTrac also has an automated drop/swap feature. Unfortunately, management doesn't want us to have that much control of our QOL and won't turn it on. Seems like it would be easier to do that than just have one overworked person in scheduling trying to deal with 8000 e-mails.

They accidentally enabled the viewing of comments for us. No one has said anything since we all like have the schedulers' comments as ammunition. :)
 
RAH uses CrewTrac, too. It's often slow and several times it crashes my browser (probably a problem with my system though).
 
Alaska's still using SBS Maestro. . . anyone still use that system? As a company that touts being on the forefront of technology (HGS, RNP, GPS, etc), it's ironic that our IT is in the dark ages!
 
I've never had a problem w/ the Mesaba CrewTrac site. For the few months I've been using it, it has never been down, and it runs quickly.

The employee website, on the other hand, is probably from the late 90's (seriously, no exaggeration), and goes down often (seems to always be when the FA's have to bid).
 
Our bid award comes out on the 18th on the company web site, however it is normally viewable on crewweb a few days earlier. For some reason the company didn't like this so they managed to crash crew web for the three days prior to the last bid award coming out. They say it was not related, but I'm betting we'll see the same thing happen next month.
