Airpas Aviation to optimize cost management for Swiss carrier

Tomislav Lang, CEO SkyWork

After celebrating its first anniversary in October 2011, SkyWork Airlines is delighted by the strongly growing passenger numbers: the Bern airline conveyed 87,645 passengers in the year gone by, more than twice the number in 2010. This is primarily attributable to the expansion of the route network, currently offering 25 destinations.

Airline software specialist Airpas Aviation supports the Swiss carrier in its cost management optimization. The move enables the company, based in Braunschweig, Germany, to consolidate its position as one of the leading software providers in the airline sector.

The “airpas” product is a tried and tested software solution package that has long been available from Airpas Aviation to help national and international airlines meet the latest requirements when it comes to optimized cost management. The software solutions support the airline’s controlling and accounting operations. “SkyWork is one of the rising stars in the European airline sector, with considerable potential for growth in what is a highly competitive market,” says Airpas Aviation CEO Reinhold Renger, welcoming the new contract. “It’s an exciting challenge with a lot of responsibility for us as consultants and IT specialists.”

SkyWork Airlines expanding services – including to Germany
Founded in 1983 at Bern-Belp as a two-man flying school, SkyWork Airlines continues to grow steadily. As of the 2012 summer schedule, customers will be able to enjoy new direct routes, including to Cologne, additional services in the existing network and new holiday destinations. A total of seven SkyWork aircraft will then be in service, flying to 25 destinations. “Our aim is to continue to expand the services offered from our home airport of Bern,” says SkyWork Airlnes CEO Tomislav Lang. “We’ve gained an excellent partner in Airpas Aviation, and they’ll be supporting us with the high level of professionalism they’re renowned for.”
