Sales Initial Training | Itinerary: Manual Feasibility Check

00:00: This guide provides a step-by-step walkthrough of manual feasibility.

00:04: Check using Flex so that sales team members can quote more accurate

00:08: trips by having dispatch confirm, its feasibility before it is even

00:12: booked.

00:13: A manual feasibility check is initiated from the Sales module.

00:16: The 1929 Women’s Air Derby flew from Santa Monica,

00:20: California to Cleveland, Ohio. Let’s see if we can fly the same route

00:25: in a modern business jet.

00:27: This itinerary gives us a warning on departure.

00:31: Clicking on it provides more details. In this case, the runway is too

00:35: short. The takeoff run required for the aircraft is 3,599

00:40: feet, but the longest runway is only 3,500 and 1 feet.

00:45: Whether you have doubts or it is your company policy, you can submit a

00:49: manual feasibility check from sales to dispatch. It is not required

00:53: to have a warning to submit a check.

00:55: Let’s try it out here. Click the feasibility icon.

01:00: Then navigate to dispatch.

01:02: Click the “View Pending Feasibility” filter.

01:05: You can now view the flight pending feasibility. Click anywhere on the flight strip

01:09: to expand it.

01:11: In the Airport panel, we see a red warning and red for the longest runway

01:15: length. This is a no-go. The feasibility can be declined by Dispatch

01:19: or Ops by clicking the red X at the end of the flight strip

01:24: Navigate back to sales.

01:26: The red X in the itinerary indicates that the feasibility

01:29: check status is declined.

01:32: Click to reset, so that you may make changes to the itinerary and later

01:36: resubmit.

01:37: If you refresh your warnings, you will clear the pending status.

01:42: Save your changes.

01:44: Let’s change the departure airport to one with a longer runway

01:49: We want to find an airport near Santa Monica, so let’s use the map

01:53: Start by typing the address or airport.

01:56: Click one of the airports to expand more details.

02:00: In this case, Van Nuys seems like a feasible airport, close to Santa

02:04: Monica, with a long enough runway and no customs needed for this domestic trip

02:09: Save your changes to the departure airport

02:13: Not let’s run another manual feasibility check, even though there are no warnings in

02:17: the itinerary.

02:18: Navigate back to Dispatch.

02:21: Just like before, click the “View Pending Feasibility” filter.

02:25: Click anywhere inside the flight strip to expand it.

02:29: This time, runway details are green in the Airport panel.

02:31: Let’s click the green check to approve the feasibility of this flight.

02:36: Navigate to Sales.

02:38: Refresh your warnings

02:40: Now we see that the manual feasibility check status is OK and green.

02:45: This guide covered the steps to Manual Feasibility

02:48: Check in FL3XX.
