Through implementation of the LodgeX Airline Solutions suite, airlines streamline their lodging management systems by seamlessly connecting their flight schedules with business processes to forecast lodging needs, reserve accommodations and consolidate and audit billing.

Colgan Airlines operates over 350 daily flights as US Airways Express, Continental Connection and United Express. Colgan Air will take delivery of fifteen 74-seat Bombardier Q400 turboprops starting in December 2007. "Colgan Airlines is expanding with new aircraft and new markets. This growth requires solid business partners and we're pleased to have LodgeX as part of our team," said Mike Colgan, President of Colgan Air.
