SINGAPORE (16 September 2019): Singapore company LAMINAAR Aviation Infotech has announced that Trans Maldivian Airways (TMA), the world’s largest seaplane operator, has chosen ARMS® to manage its flight crew operations.

The LAMINAAR solution will be a blend of ARMS® Crew Management Sub System (CMSS), plus ARMS® on Mobile (AOM), and will be compatible with TMA’s existing mobility applications and assets. With ARMS®, the airline will be able to optimize the utilization of qualified resources for safe and compliant operations, at the same time, afford the crew a better quality of life.

The win is significant for LAMINAAR. TMA operates 52 de Havilland Canada Twin Otter seaplanes, the world’s largest seaplane fleet, out of the seaplane terminal co-located at the Velana International Airport, Maldives. It is also the oldest air transfer operator in the archipelago, providing seaplane transfer services to a large number of tourist resorts. The airline is also one of the largest employers in the Maldives with around 1000 employees, including nearly 300 crew members.

Laminaar CEO, Vivek Sheorey, says, “Being chosen by Trans Maldivian Airways is a matter of great pride for us. ARMS® will be a force multiplier for Trans Maldivian as a comprehensive one-stop solution for crew, be it training, scheduling, rostering, logistics or documentation.
