In October WestJet released their eeCrewConnect^® app, known as WS Crew View, on the Apple App Store and Google Play. Prior to this release, the app was only available on company devices. Now crew members can use their personal smartphones, anywhere, to access their schedules, flight cancellations, hotel and ground transportation information, as well as custom messages from crew schedulers.

On October 11 2e Systems released the latest version of the eeCrewConnect^® mobile app for JetBlue, known as JETCRW. The new release makes use of geofencing technology to support JetBlue's "positive check-in" procedure, which requires all crew members to check in for duty while physically located at the airport. The app is now the primary system for all JetBlue crew members to check in for duty, with the only alternative being to use phones located in airport crew areas.

An enhanced version of the successful "Blind Booking" variable opaque product (VOP) created by SigmaZen GmbH and powered by 2e Systems was launched on 18 May 2016 on the Lufthansa.com website. The "Lufthansa Surprise" VOP (www.lufthansa-surprise.com) allows customers to create their own return flight solution for prices as low as €89, including all taxes and fees.

In June 2016 Swiss International Air Lines completed their migration to a new DCS. To assist the migration, 2e Systems' eeDepart solution was configured in line with the airline's flights migration schedule. The web check-in system would switch to the correct DCS according to each individual flight. This meant no manual intervention was required by Swiss staff, significantly reducing the effort required on their side.

2e Systems is pleased to announce the release of eeDepart online check-in for Edelweiss Air. Edelweiss passengers flying out to select holiday destinations can now benefit from an online check-in application that makes the process as smooth and effortless as possible. The service is also offered to customers of Edelweiss partner airlines.
