With LogTen for Mac you can import your schedule from an ever growing list of airlines, using a wide range of crew scheduling systems world wide.
Unfortunately we don't have access to the actual airline intranets, just sample schedule data from our users, so we can't provide detailed instructions for every airline. Below are some steps that may help for some.
SEE THE FULL LIST OF SUPPORTED AIRLINES AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
NOTE:
If the web browser you are using gives you trouble, try a different browser. We recommend using Apple Safari for cut-and-paste operations with the schedules. We have seen mixed results with other browsers.
If you are copying from a PDF document, please copy from Acrobat (not Preview) and hit Command A to select all before copying.
Generally all you need to do is:
Login to your crew site
Open your schedule for the month
Save the file to your Mac
Open Adobe on your Mac
Open PDF with Adobe using Cmd+O (default Preview app won't work)
Cmd+A to select all, and copy Cmd+C
Open LogTen, click on File → Import Schedule.
Select your airline from the list, and paste it into the text box via Cmd+V
Click Continue, and that should take you to the mapping window
Can you get a CSV file?
If you're company allows you to export your schedule to a .csv (Comma Separated Values) that's even better! ExpressJet and companies using SchedPlus for example, have this option. Then you will use the regular "Import from File" command under the File menu to import your CSV file. You can use this to import historical, or future data as it allows you to map your data where you want in LogTen. For details on importing and how to do this please see our importing article.
AIMS
Log into AIMS and select SCHEDULE DETAILED FORMAT.
From within your web browser, chose File -> Save Page As... to save your schedule to your computer. This will save the file in a .htm or .html format.
In the AIMS selection of the Import Schedule feature of LogTen Pro, click on the Browse button and locate your saved file, then click on open to begin the import.
Note: AIMS is slowly rolling out an update to it's airlines that changes the way you can save your data. This update prevents saving the data in an importable format. If you find that you cannot save your AIMS data as an html file then please contact us.
Air Canada
CrewLink is recommended.
Note: that while the schedule displays in the browser, it is a PDF. Adobe Acrobat must be used for the text to copy properly. It is important you verify you are using Adobe Acrobat plugin for your browser, or open the PDF with Adobe Acrobat prior to copying the contents.
