<p>In this edition of <strong>T2RL Talks</strong>, host <strong>Ian Tunnacliffe</strong> sits down with expert T2RL consultants <strong>Jerry Foran</strong> and <strong>Rasih Ustun</strong> to discuss the rapidly evolving world of airline revenue management (RM).The conversation centers on the findings of T2RL’s latest <strong>annual survey of the market for RM solutions</strong>, exploring whether traditional revenue management still has a role to play as the industry moves toward <strong>modern retailing and OOSD</strong> (Offer, Order, Settlement, and Delivery). The panel examines the "inevitable" shift where offers are created in response to every individual query and how the science of RM must adapt to become more customer-centric.Key highlights of the discussion include:</p><ul><ul><li><strong>The Integration of RM and Pricing:</strong> Why the historical separation of these two functions is being consigned to history in favour of joined-up commercial processes.</li></ul><ul><li><strong>Ancillary Revenue Management:</strong> The challenges of applying RM principles to services like seats and bags, including the complexities of data collection and optimization.</li></ul><ul><li><strong>The Role of AI and Machine Learning:</strong> How sophisticated RM providers are using <strong>AI tools</strong> to extract actionable insights from increasingly large and unstructured datasets.</li></ul><ul><li><strong>Market Dynamics:</strong> A look at why some major airlines continue to build <strong>in-house solutions</strong> to keep their science proprietary while others move toward specialist vendors.</li></ul><ul><li><strong>"Bring Your Own Science":</strong> A look into the future of unified offer optimization platforms and the assembly of different components to manage right-to-fly, ancillaries, and bundling.</li></ul></ul><p>Whether you are interested in the rise of dynamic pricing or the future of network optimization, this episode provides essential insights into the technology and strategies shaping the airline industry today.

Joined by <strong>Bert Craven</strong>, Head of Technology Practice and Deputy CEO of T2RL, and <strong>Jane Atkinson</strong>, Senior Vice President of Business Development, the team explores the <strong>"pinch at both ends"</strong> caused by rising fuel costs and suppressed travel demand following military operations in the Middle East.</p><p>The conversation moves beyond the immediate crisis to offer <strong>practical strategies for airline IT and business managers</strong>. The experts discuss where to find <strong>"buried treasure"</strong> within existing contract portfolios, highlighting often-overlooked areas like <strong>aviation messaging costs</strong>, distribution forensics, and the critical importance of <strong>"material change of business" clauses</strong>.</p><p>From the nuances of <strong>contractual minima</strong> to the massive return on investment provided by a well-run <strong>RFP</strong>, this episode provides a roadmap for airlines looking to achieve <strong>long-term commercial efficiency</strong> and robust leverage, even when the market is at its most volatile. Whether you are facing immediate cost pressures or preparing for upcoming renewals, this session offers essential insights into <strong>navigating the current crisis</strong> while maintaining a <strong>"keep calm and carry on"</strong> strategic focus.</p>
