Amadeus SkyCAST

Accurate forecasts for passenger demand, revenue, and costs will enable better decision-making and provide more business insights, resulting in increased network profitability.

Supporting you in a consistent and objective evaluation of multiple what-if scenarios in hours, not days or weeks, and without needing extensive manual calibration.

Amadeus SkyCAST is a network planning system that goes beyond your own existing network. It allows you to take into consideration new destinations, flight timings, hub structures, alliances, code-shares, and competitive responses.

Amadeus SkyCAST provides different workspaces for basic and advanced users. Results of forecasts are available for easy analysis at flight, station, and market levels, and pinpointing the changes in the network.

Amadeus SkyCAST’s models consider passenger preference factors such as time of day, service type, airport preference, carrier preference, and other variables. The system’s traffic model converts forecasted demand of each itinerary into expected traffic, considering spill and recapture effects.

Be able to use cabin-level forecasting with up-sell, multi-airport city forecasting, market stimulation, change-based demand forecasting, and capacity-plan demand forecasting.

Users can add, remove, and modify forecast input data to easily create different what-if scenarios; the system also provides batch editing to accommodate multiple edits on large amounts of data simultaneously.

Amadeus SkyCAST automatically runs forecasts on previous years’ schedules (back-cast) and compares results with historical traffic data to determine detailed forecasting accuracy measurements and adjustments at the system, market, and flight levels.
