# Airline inventory built for real operations

Manage flight schedules, seat availability, and fare classes in one system, synchronized across every sales channel and airport operation in real time.

- Real-time seat availability
- 100% channel synchronization
- No ghost inventory
- API-first architecture

## Why inventory problems show up everywhere else
Disconnected inventory systems create operational conflicts, revenue leakage, and inconsistent seat availability across sales channels.

### Channel conflicts

OTAs, agencies, and direct channels show different availability because updates propagate slowly.

### Ghost inventory

Seats stay blocked or unavailable because systems sync in batches, not in real time.

### Manual flight management

Routes, schedules, and aircraft configs require jumping between disconnected tools.

### Operational mismatch

Inventory changes don't reach airport systems, causing boarding and reporting inconsistencies.

## Every lever that controls what you sell
Manage flights, seat availability, fare rules, and ancillary inventory from a single operational system.

### Flight & schedule management

Create flights, configure aircraft layouts, and manage routes from one interface.

### Seat availability control

Set availability by channel, fare class, and booking window - updates propagate instantly.

### Fare classes & pricing rules

Define fare classes and pricing rules per route and channel, without redeploying.

### Ancillary inventory

Bags, meals, seats, and bundles managed in the same inventory as flights.

## When inventory changes, everything downstream knows

Inventory updates automatically propagate to reservations, DCS, and passenger communications - seat sales, flight changes, and cancellations stay synchronized across commercial and operational systems.

## Set the rules for who sells what, and at what price

Prioritize high-value channels, manage fare availability by class and booking window, and attach ancillaries like seats, bags, and priority boarding - all controlled from inventory.

## FAQ
What airline ops and commercial teams ask before switching.

### How does Farel's inventory system differ from a traditional AIS?

Traditional systems manage availability in isolation. Farel's inventory is natively connected to reservations, DCS, pricing, and distribution - every change propagates instantly with no middleware or manual exports.

### How does inventory prevent overbooking and ghost seats?

Every booking, cancellation, and hold updates availability in real time across all channels simultaneously. There are no batch syncs or delayed updates. When a seat sells on the website, it's immediately reflected in the agency portal, API, and admin panel.

### Can we control which channels see which fares and availability?

Yes. Inventory rules let you set fare access, seat allocation, and booking windows per channel. You can prioritize direct sales, restrict discount fares on OTAs, or allocate specific inventory to agency partners - all from one interface.

### How are schedule changes handled across the system?

When a flight schedule changes, inventory automatically updates availability, reservations rebooks affected passengers, and notifications go out, no manual intervention required unless you configure agent review for specific scenarios.

### Does the inventory system support charter and ad-hoc flights?

Yes. Charter flights, ad-hoc schedules, and one-off operations can be created alongside regular scheduled service. Aircraft layouts, seat maps, and pricing apply the same way across all flight types.

### How long does it take to set up and go live?

Most airlines go live with Farel's full platform, including inventory - in 2–8 weeks. Schedule data, fleet configurations, and fare structures are migrated by Farel's onboarding team with parallel-run support.
