Understanding these issues will help us put effective solutions in place to better the interline transfer passenger experience across the alliance. Further enhancements to the Dashboard’s information feeds in 2020 will enable a range of additional advantages in monitoring our customers’ journeys, including improved tracking of flight status and Out, Off, On, In (OOOI) insights – The 4 key times measured for a flight. Out of the Gate/Departure, Off the ground/Takeoff, On the ground/Landed, In to the Gate/Arrival. We will also benefit from enhanced Transfer Passenger Information (TPI) files which will enable the reporting of interline transfer passenger volume by SkyTeam loyalty tier level and actual misconnect rates.

Several member airlines have already started to generate this enhanced TPI data this month, including Aeromexico, Air France, Alitalia, China Eastern, Czech Airlines, Delta, Vietnam Airlines and XiamenAir.
