CODESHARE MANAGEMENT: Sharing the "right" flights
1) Configuration: Reusable Rules
Easy first-time configuration set-up that is replicated for future use
2) Input
3) Built-in SSIM Validation
Automatic syntactical check on SSIM files and check on basic entities such as:
- unknown airports,
- invalid aircraft types,
- invalid time zones etc.
4) Rule-Based Calculator
The Rule-Based Calculator automatically generates optimized codeshare results based on the defined business rules.
It produces:
- Best Connections – identifies the single best available connection for each itinerary.
- Umbrella Connections – generates multiple ranked connection options (1st, 2nd, 3rd, and so on), providing greater flexibility.
- Codeshares – automatically creates codeshare itineraries with intelligent marketing flight number assignment. When required, users can manually override the automatically assigned numbering.
- Schedules – calculates complete schedules at season, agreement, or individual partner level, presenting flight numbers, operating times, days of operation, and codeshares in a clear, export-ready format. Users can refine schedules by including or excluding connections, adjusting marketing flight numbers, and previewing all changes before applying them. Any modifications are immediately reflected across the Connections, Codeshares, and Schedules views, ensuring complete consistency throughout the workflow.
Key Benefits
- Automatic schedule generation at season, agreement, or partner level
- Ranked Best and Umbrella connection generation
- Intelligent automated codeshare numbering with manual override when needed
- One-click export of schedules to Excel

5) SSIM Distribution: Automated Delivery to Partners
Once SSIM files are exported, SYNDESIS automatically distributes them to each codeshare partner, either immediately upon export or on a predefined schedule. No manual sending is required. Distribution settings, including recipients, subject lines, and email messages, are configured once for each carrier and reused automatically. Every delivery attempt is logged with a complete success/failure history, while built-in retry logic ensures reliable delivery with minimal intervention. Your network planning team can stay focused on planning instead of file distribution.
Key Benefits
