Thread: How accurate is Travelnet?

travelnet is very accurate and pulls straight from deltaterm...the issue with travelnet is within about 20-25minutes before departure so much is happening on that flights seat assignements and passenger numbers that each refresh could give you a different number...if I am watching a flight for my ppr riders, I dont even trust deltaterm within that time frame because I know the gate agents are doing things that may not be entered in deltaterm right away...

i have worked flights oversold, no seats available for standby and leave with all standbys cleared and seats still available...seats will open up when we cancel noshow passengers and also when we verify that virtual check in passengers are not on board...normally happens close to departure time and it is sometimes after the flights leave that we pull rev pax seat assignments and show nonrevs with seat assignments and on board, that is why you should never leave the gate until the plane does or you could miss out on an available seat...
