Abstract
A system and method are provided for implementing improved access to inter-company resources among related companies in a same industry, including a mechanism where airline aircrew members and other employees, including pilots, cabin flight crew and others can be validated as to eligibility to participate in cabin access programs, using automation and applying various rules and features. The disclosed schemes expand upon the currently-fielded CASS service to cover two additional groups of currently-unserved customer populations within the airline industry thereby availing those additional groups of benefits equivalent to those provided to pilots and cockpit aircrew by the CASS service. The two groups include: (1) airlines and other air carriers, including regional air carriers and business aviation entities and organizations, as well as other currently non-participating Twelve-Five Standard Security Program (TFSSP) entities and organizations; and (2) other airline employees including non-pilot cabin crew members, dispatchers and other ground-based airline employees.
