Wiremind, a France-based AI-powered SaaS solution provider to enhance Revenue Management and Optimization (RMO), has won the multi-year contract to provide Qatar Airways Cargo with innovative sales and revenue management solutions from its comprehensive cargo product suite, to support the airline in its pioneering digitalization drive.

Qatar Airways Cargo, the world’s leading cargo airline has selected three solutions from Wiremind’s cargo management suite, following a thorough RFP process. Using Wiremind’s Revenue Management system, Qatar Airways Cargo will benefit from advanced demand forecasts and optimized entry conditions, enabling the airline to maximize its entire network contribution and revenue.

The air cargo carrier will also have access to the newly launched Overbooking module, which leverages machine learning models to forecast the cargo show-up rate on the day, supporting flight analysts in their decisions on the overbooking percentage for a particular flight to minimize capacity wastage on the day of departure.

The last solution chosen by Qatar Airways is Wiremind’s original flagship product, SkyPallet, which optimizes space calculations at various points in the cargo lifecycle, to ensure maximum capacity usage and accurate quotations.
