On - line system for seat map visualization and passenger seat allocation in the aircraft

The article presents the basic rules and principles of the organization of seats aboard transport aircraft taking into account their internal arrangement of the board. The authors present a basic conceptual draft of the system for a graphic visualization of seats arranged aboard of the selected type of aircraft as a part of a check-in module being developed for the DCS system for a particular airline company needs. The webbased application of the system supported by the function of allocating seats for individual passengers based on the pre-defined selection criteria in the process of check-in and reservation, was presented. The system can be realized as an integral part of web-based check-in or mobile check-in applications as well as on-line self-check-in systems for seat reservation and allocation aboard of an aircraft, as a part of the ground handling process at the airport.
