I have been a very satisfied user of Crewsware for a year now. I have been able to find and filter pairings that I may have missed when bidding my blocks. I like the pairing builder since I can see what will fit into my sked to make a clean schedule. I like the text messages to my mobile when blocks are out & awarded. Ical for Smartphones also uploads my flights to my Google calendar which makes it easier to plan my commute & life!
The Expense Tracker is great. Its fast, clear and easy to use. I like it because takes away the headache of sifting through everything myself. Last year I hired someone to check my meals. I went through my pay summaries again once expense tracker was introduced, and I have sucessfully claimed and ADDITIONAL $156+ in expenses that was missed from last year! Even little things like being paid a Cdn meal instead of the US or other rate on turns. FYI, everything I put through has been approved.
The innovative services provided by Crewsware are outstanding, and greatly simplify the process of getting the information you need about your busy, and sometimes complex, airline schedule on day-to-day basis. From bidding tools, to pilot logs, to something as simple deciding whether to pack those shorts on your layover - Crewsware has the solution. My personal favourites are iCal for Smartphones, which automatically populates your smartphone calendar with your block when it's released, and the Who's In Town feature to see if any of your buddies will also be in town on a layover. Even for a reserve pilot who won't be able to take full advantage of the block features, the many other features make it well worth the investment - not to mention the fact that the subscription is half price for reserve schedules.
In addition, support of all these features is prompt and helpful. Any issue you may have is usually resolved in a matter of hours.
This is what the Company's scheduling software SHOULD have been. For less than a quarter a day you can have access to one of the most powerful scheduling services available. You won't regret it!
Thanks, Dave! Keep up the great work...
Crewsware is awesome!! Just followed the very easy steps to set up the Subscribed Calendars on my iPad. So many great features, Crewsware is truly an invaluable tool for anyone in the airline industry!!
Thanks and keep up the great work!
Your "step by step" tutorial about how to get my Crewsware schedule configured and downloaded on my iPod (iCalendar) is simple, very well illustrated and most of all... it worked! You kept it simple, efficient and that's the way I like it! It not always like that when it's time to set up something in this fantastic computer world. But you made it easy. Much appreciated.
Awesome! Subscribed calendar works like a charm. Installed on iPhone within seconds of notification received that schedules were ready. Nice job!
