Oh thats just great. In other words it will be a bigger shambles than normal that big brother will have to fix!

Thank god I got out of my JQ sector this weekend. Even though I wouldn't have gone anywhere because on the error in the booking.

I do not work in the aviation industry at all but I do work in IT and it's bizarre that the core system of the airline is going offline for an entire weekend. There is an obvious financial impact there and through their analysis, I would carefully assume that the loss of revenue did not outweigh an IT solution that would have offered them some redundancy. I've seen it all now.

World's Best Practice ...?
Methinks not. Surely they could have hired a data centre to run up the new system and then had a switchover.
Doing it this way, how and when will the staff be trained in the new system? If anyone has insights into the thinking behind these logistics I'd love to hear it. |

It's got to be saving them a lot doing it this way rather than doing it as an instant switchover - If i suggested shutting the Network down for 2 days I'd be laughed out of the office. :) I'm glad i'm not involved in this one - Any sort of large scale swap over like that is a disaster waiting to happen. :) |
Shutting down for a while weekend does seem slightly odd in this day and age!

And when you look over the OTP and XXLD flight stats for 2008 JQ usually fairs better than QF. |
