DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AIRLINE BOOKING SYSTEM
CHAPITRE ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction to the Research
Throughout the history of commercial aviation, the rapid movement of aircraft, people, and cargo has necessitated the even more timely movement of information. This has never been more true than now, when information has evolved from an operational tool to a competitive weapon. To leverage on this information, the technology revolution and information society have provided us with a dizzying array of skills. They have, however, provided us with a confusing assortment of options for services, rates, techniques, and products. Many managers are confronted with too much of a good thing, too many options. However, an airline today signifies commerce. In today’s world, commerce and tourism are the engines of economic progress. Airlines, airports, and even governments compete for travel-related revenue in the airline sector. Staying ahead requires investments in improved customer service tools, increased management awareness, faster access to operational information, and so on.
With so many technological and service options available, as well as the requirement to make quick, well-informed decisions, many businesses are finding it increasingly difficult and costly to hire and retain people to fulfill the needs. The efficient usage of an airline information system can aid in the resolution of this issue.

A multi-database system for seat booking and ticketing is a very sophisticated integrated computer-based system for managing an airline’s or aircraft fleet operator’s technical operations activities. The system can be utilized by large and small firms operating a variety of fixed and rotary-wing aircraft all over the world.
The created software will be used to collect, store, and analyze data on seat booking and ticketing in the sector.
1.2 Statement of the Problem
As the aviation business grows, so do the number of airlines. The

Consider security considerations so that retrieval of flight booking information is not disrupted. The new system is intended to handle the following tasks:
Create a website where users may view all domestic flights.
Create an online system that allows customers to view domestic flight schedules and rates.
Allow for internet flight bookings.
Allow passengers to submit ideas or complaints about aircraft operations online.
Customers should be able to see information on flight maintenance.
Allow passengers to submit complaints about flight operations or services.
Customers can access an online news publication created by flight operators.
The number of flights conducted by an airline is made available.
Maintain a solid database for flight data management.

1.4 The Purpose of the Research
The primary goal is to design and deploy an airline seat reservation system. This system will also contain a flight scheduling system and the ability to confirm flight tickets.
1.5 The Importance of the Research
Given the rapid development of computer technology in nearly all domains of operation and its application in relation to information management, it has become critical to investigate the development of a seat booking system to satisfy the expectations of today’s society. As a result, the booking booking aids management in obtaining data on flight bookings at any moment.
The project’s goal is to provide a new and improved alternative system to assist the organization in: –
(a) When necessary, produce operational reports.
(b) Keep data and information in the system secure.
(c) Workload reduction in the current system.
(d) Maintain an accurate record of flight bookings.
(e) Reduce the amount of time spent on data processing.

1.6 Purpose of the Research
This project will cover all aspects of flight booking, ticket confirmation, and flight schedule information. Aero Airlines Nig Ltd is the case study for this project.
1.7 Constraints and Limitations
Much funding was necessary throughout the design of this work, and due to the global financial meltdown, the research was constrained by finance and so focussed on the available materials within the locality.
1.8 Factors to Consider
It is assumed that all of the information gathered is correct, and that the software was designed using the available data.

In computer science, a black box is a unit whose underlying structure is unknown but whose purpose is documented.
Black box testing entails the tester being given the specification of a component to be tested and using it to generate test cases. This has the advantage of not requiring the tester to know anything about the code used in the component or comprehend its internal structure. This is also a negative because knowledge of the code might aid in the creation of tests that thoroughly exercise the software.
Management Information System (MIS) is a system that saves and retrieves information and data, processes it, and presents it to management as information to be utilized in decision making.
MCS- Management Control System is a type of information system used by an organization’s management to analyze each application’s input, storage, processing, and output.
