The TMS's systems in Australia are all incestuous and at times really just questionable as to why the travel industry needs these systems that are getting very unwieldy at times..
As someone who's been at both Tourism Queensland and TravelTrain Holidays and been in teams (both management and developer focused) spent millions to make feeble attempts to replace them, its somewhat a case of skating uphill the moment you do decide to move away from them... To be honest i'm surprised there hasn't been more of these mini disasters :) Regards, Scott Barnes http://www.riagenic.com On Mon, Sep 27, 2010 at 12:37 PM, Ken Schaefer <k...@adopenstatic.com> wrote: > A failure of some kind at Navitaire.
