The national carrier operates and maintains a modern fleet of three ATR42-500 and two ATR72-500 advanced turbopropeller aircraft. These high-performance aircraft carry respectively 46 and 70 passengers in jet-like standards of comfort. In addition to the ATRs, Air Botswana owns one BAe 146 jet, which carries 78 passengers, as part of its fleet.
Air Botswana is an active member of the African Airlines Association (AFRAA) and is a regular participant at meetings of the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the governing body of world aviation, and other international industry forums.
To provide an overall solution, ADSoftware will employ its proven implementation methodology to provide Air Botswana with a full scope of functionality through AirPack latest 2011 version. “The goals of AirPack 2011 are to deliver superior business solutions to our customers through the enhancement and automation of functions within the AirPack solution” noted Frederick Ulrich, CEO of ADSoftware.
“The implementation of our aviation dedicated software at Air Botswana reflects the strength of our AirPack suite and our continued efforts within the African continent.

ADSoftware is very pleased to add Air Botswana to our client base in Africa, and to continue to strengthen and expand our installed base by adding customers over the coming months“, comments Mr Ulrich.
