196CHAPTER 18. GLOSSARYTRAVEL$ENSEAIRLINE CODEA unique two letter code assigned to an airline and used in flight numbers (e.g.AA = American Airlines). Accurate codes are essential for processing airlinedata. Many codes are not obviously associated with an airline name (e.g. HP =America West). Names instead of codes are given on screens, except whenmultiple airlines within a leg require the use of codes for space reasons.AIRLINE NAMEA text name for display purposes for a given airline. For each name a uniqueairline code identifier exists. Airline names may vary slightly among travelsystems and can be edited via the Profiles screen.AIRLINE PROFILEAirline profiles are required and supplied in your database for all bookableairlines on the reservation system as of the release date of the software.Travel$ense requires the airline code and name to interpret flight information.You can edit the display name of an airline or add a new airline via the profilescreen. New airlines can be added if they become listed on the reservationsystem. Do not delete airlines that have been part of saved flight results. Thiswould make it impossible to open such trips this trip at a later time.AIRPORT PROFILEAirport data for Travel$ense is provided by Jeppesen for worldwide airportswith hard surface runways of at least 3,000 feet. To this is added thecommercially served flag, which is used by Travel$ense to display commercialairports and then used during interactions with the reservation system. Suchairports must use three-letter IATA codes in order to synchronize with thereservation system.AIRLINE TRIP CYCLE BASELINEFor this calculation, Travel$ense analyzes a trip in its entirety, including for thefirst and only instance time during travel and time on site, and extra time onsite required due to airline schedules over the entire course of the trip,beginning to end. The airline trip cycle – the comparable airline trip frombeginning to end – is the baseline from which these calculations are derived.Time that falls within business hours within a trip is counted as either nonproductive,partially productive or fully productive, based upon on theassumptions incorporated into the program. Time that falls outside businesshours is valued only if it occurs during travel itself, and then only if the Non-Business Hour Travel Time Valuation has been set to a percentage above zero.Copyright © 1999, National Business Aviation Association, Inc.
TRAVEL$ENSESleeping time is never valued. It is counted as non-business hours away fromhome.ALTERNATIVEAn alternative is one or more flights in a component that meet your queryparameters. The query results consist of a table of available alternatives for eachcomponent.AVERAGE GROUND TRAVEL TIMEThe average (for all passengers) amount of time spent traveling door to doornot in the aircraft for all legs. It includes drive time to and from the airport,terminal time, and layover time between flights. It does not include layover timefor direct (same airplane, one stop) flights, which Travel$ense ignores fortechnical reasons. This number can be surprisingly high as travelers tend toignore, discount or dismiss the amount of time it takes to get to and fromairports. From an efficiency and productivity standpoint, however, a minutesaved is a minute saved, and time lost is counted and tallied.AVERAGE TIME ON-SITEThe average (for all passengers) amount of time spent on site during businesshours only (individually defined) during all legs of the trip. For airline trips, thismay include extra, less valued, time on site required by airline schedules(overnight, assumed to arrive at site at start of your business day nextmorning).BASELINEUsed on the Benefit Analysis, this indicates that the airline is used as the basisfor comparison for the business aircraft options, which display the cost/timesavings versus the airlines.BOOKABLE AIRLINE197Airline participants in the reservation system airline-specific availabilityprogram. A few low cost carriers and foreign carriers do not participate andcan not be priced via the reservation system. The bookable indicator is set toNo. A few carriers, including Southwest Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines and AmericanTrans Air, participate at a lower level in the reservation system. Their bookableindicator is set to Basic. Travel$ense will use these airlines in one or two legtrips within the restrictions imposed by the reservation system that a singlebasic bookable carrier must be used for all flights within a trip.Copyright © 1999, National Business Aviation Association, Inc.
