When the Type selected is “Shared”, then limit the destinations to LeChable Train Station and Verbier. I will make a flag in the Destination called “SharedDestination” to identify those
Let's talk about what a Shared service is. It is a bus with up to 13 seats. So we need to pick the shuttle according to the flight and also show how many seats left available. I already have the best shuttle time logic solved for, but we need to build a capacity issue. Let's first assume infinite capacity and solve that after

Flight trips
I am developing a PHP symfony PS project that looks at flight times. I have 2 sources for the scheduled flight times (departure and arrival) data and i want to use both to cross-check. My fields are respectively 1) scheduledDepartureTime and scheduledDepartureTimeGvach and 2) scheduledArrivalTime and scheduledArrivalTimeGvach
In order to save real estate on the page I want to consolidate this data to a single figure, but have colours identify any discrepancies. My thought is that the display should be (using departures es the example)
If only the scheduledDeparture time is present (and the scheduledDepartureTimeGvach is null), then display the scheduledDeparture, in grey
If both scheduledDeparture and scheduledDepartureTimeGvach are availablen and the the same then display either one (scheduledDepartureTimeGvach) in black
If both are available but are different by more than 10mins, the show scheduledDepartureTimeGvach in black with red !, with the ability to show the scheduledDepartureTime via a tooltip/hover
Where the train times are shown in the view, hover over to show the 2 preceding and 5 following train departure times.
When a flight arrival is delayed, show the new expected train time and the previous one in a warning box

Shared Bus service (shuttle)
Concept: It is a ‘shared’ taxi for a group of people on a specific train (arriving at Le Chable or departing from LeChable) that will drive the customers to their homes in Verbier (which is 10mins up the hill and then around town)
This bus will have [13] seats. So can take up to 13 in total (split in any combination)
Arrivals
It will meet upto 13 clients (eg 2+2 +3 +5 etc) arriving on the train, at LeChable.
It takes take them to their chalet(s) - ie does multiple stops in Verbier.
Departures
it picks up up to 13 passengers in Verbier (about 25mins before the train) and drives down the hill to Le Chable

New booking
The default trip 1 on a new booking is a trip from GVA to Verbier (on the next [Sunday]).
However the transfer_macro does not offer the user a list of flights. One has to switch to another destination and back to GVA to trigger
Switching Destination (eg from Verbier to Sembrancher) should reset the accommodation (or flight)
Show above the trip the distance and time.
Price to be calculated on a formula based on drive time and number of passengers
Flights should be sorted as follows:
GVA pickup (ie Flight Arrivals): By scheduled flight arrival time
GVA drop-offs (ie Flight Departures). By scheduled flight departure time
Note, by "scheduled" I mean the gvach if it exists and the plain scheduled one if not
Departure times from trips to/from an airport not computed yet. Should reference the flight arrival or departure times with the formulas agreed.
Accommodations
If the booking is an affiliate one, the list of chalets should just be their accommodations (but include all restaurants etc as usual)
Include a checkbox in the Details dropdown to show ‘All’ chalets
‘Save’ - This updates the database but returns the user to the same screen (ie opens the Edit if new or stays on the Edit if in Edit mode)
‘Discard’ - Closes the screen and doesn't save. Prompt a "Are you sure?
‘Save & Close’ - Saves the record and returns to the Bookings Index
Cancel transfer
This is essentially a new field. All the details are saved, but the transfer will disappear from (or zero costs) in any bills or from the driver's manifest
City- Address
The chalet name disappears after 2-3 seconds.
The search should include the Affiliate name, so I can search for “Bramble”
Cancel button should be in Extras

Flight scraper - When to refresh using the detailed (flight by flight) code.
T+1.
All flights. One-off check, mainly to confirm that the scheduled times from Kayak match the times from gva.ch. ie ScheduledDepartureTimeGvach === ScheduledArrivalTimeGvach
Chron: Run at 8am, on T+1 (ie on Monday 8am, run Tuesday's GVA.CH Overview and Details flight scraper)
Detailed scrape should run once on T+1 to capture the Scheduled Departure TimeGVACH) , and then on the day according to whether a flight is in need of a scrape
Then on T+0, the detailed refresh should run on “selected” individual flights, where the criteria for selection is:
actualDepartureTime is null
scheduledDepartureTimeGvach is after ‘now’ - 30mins
Time since last refresh is more than 15mins
Code-share
Code share is no longer a relational field (linked to FlightTrips) as it is a function of the FlightNumber (and multiple FlightTrips can have the same FlightNumber).
So the determination has to be a lookup on a matching flight number

Feedback on Transfer Macro
The time box should be a format for time (24hrs) and width should match the dates
Date should show the DoW (eg Sun 16 May 2025) TODO
Destination
Should be sorted by “SortOder” and then alphabetically on "City"- with a break before ‘20’ TODO
Handling Destination is a "Train Station"
If you change the Destination from a City to a train/airport (eg from Verbier to Martigny Train) then the From Address field should switch to Train time/Flight
When Destination is a City (eg Verbier), the Accommodation dropdown needs to contain all the information (see attached screenshot). 2 lines required for each address:
Symbol to indicate the “Type”
‘House’ for a Chalet
‘Knife and fork’ for a Restaurant
‘Office building’ for a Hotel
Then show the Chalet Name, Apartment details, and then the Affiliate (in brackets)
Then line below should have the street and house number
Looking at the database entry for the Transfer:
PassengerName and PassengerEmail and PassengerMobile should not be inherited from the Booking.
This is an over-ride should the transfer not be in the name of the Booking. So unless populated manully, it should be null
Trip date should be not nullable. Time should not be nullable but have a TBD over-ride or (TBD checkbox)
Should we rename TripXX to TransferXX in all the fields?
The addressStart and addressEnd still seems to be a string field rather than a relation field related to the Accommodation entity
We need this to be linked because the driver will be given various info points from the Accommodation entity (eg Door Code, GPS location, Driver notes, Client notes, Associated Resort Contact). But there neeeds to be a manual over-ride “Other” available
Layout of Pax Child/baby. Try to get on 1 line
The Hide/Show extra fields
The Passenger Name/Email/Mobile should be here. (These are the “over-ride ones in case the names is not the same as the Passenger details for the ”Booking" as a whole
Delete Button should be hidden
There should be a “Cancel trip flag” - which is similar to delete but retains the info for document record keeping purposes
Notes needs to be a bigger field
The timestamps can be indicated in pop-ups without expanding the section. The user will only expand if they want to edit - which is rare as the times are generated by the system.
Feedback on the Booking section (on the left)
When you save the booking, you should show the ID of the “Booking”. This is the customer reference number
Client email and client mobile should be nullable
Client details should be saved in the Clients entity if unique (ie that database grows)
Status should be: Confirmed/Inquiry/Cancelled (no need for cancel booking field)
Booking history: This should save the logged-user and time of creation

Codeshares-
The objective is to combine multiple entries for the same flight and return the code-share data in the flight details in the transfer bookings (so a user can search for their flight by any of the flight numbers)
Check the scrape functionality on the "Operated by" to identify “child” flights (ie the ones that are going to be deleted)
Establish a view of all flights where there are more than one flight departing at the same time to the same location.
Build up a list of code-shares - question, the gva.ch notes scrape concatenates the flight numbers. Should we maintain that array or separate into individual code-share identifiers - which will allow us to identify ones to delete?)
Write a service that identifies the duplicates and delete
Should be sorted by “SortOder” and then alphabetically on "City"- with a break before ‘20’ (or different colour) (this is because the first 5 or 6 are the common ones, and the others are rare)
Add buttons change order, but keep 20 as 20

Add 3 buttons on each transfer
Delete transfer (in hidden fields, next to cancel)
Copy transfer (in hidden fields). This makes an exact copy of the transfer details other than the assigned driver/vehicle and times
Imagine being asked to create a series of transfers like the same pickup from chalet X to go to ski-lifts every day of the week at say 7am. Easiest way to do that is to create it once, then copy changing the day by +1 day
Importantly, do not copy the driver/vehicle details as these are not assigned and history is unique (ie when the driver arrrived)
Return trip - this reverses the To/From. Make the date 1 week later. Same number of passengers. Not hidden - bottom right (could be an icon)
Create fields called lastSaved and savedBy
(I have created them already) , that stores the time of last saved.
Show time and initials in top right. of screen
These seem to still appear at the bottom of the booking page on the left
CreatedBy and CreatedOn fields are not being saved at the moment
Create a view of all Private transfers where the IsShared = true, sorted by Departure Destination and Arrival Destination and a flag if there is a match
Match is when…
Date, and To/From destination (city) is the same
For pickups at the Airport or Train, that all customers on the same flight/train
For dropoff at the Airport/Train, that the train/flight time are within [10] minutes of each other (where the 10 is controllable in Settings - but hard code for now)
That the total pax combined is <8
We should think about if we can automate the matching and we should publish the possible matches on our public website
Add 3 new fields – 1) “Price Adjustment” (float) and 2) “isSharedAllowed” (boolean) and “sharedTransfers” (relation linked to Transfer Entity – ManyToMany).
Price Adjustment: Each transfer will have a price, which will be composed of the “standard price” plus the possibility of a manual ‘adjustment’ (which most of the time is zero). The adjustment might be positive or negative and for example might be because the customer wants something special (eg snacks/drinks in the car, or a stopover en route) etc. The “standard price” will be calculated from the destination combination (eg VRB to GVA), the number of passengers and potentially the time of day, and we will designed an entity to capture that. And the Price Adjustment is a manual input. The standard price is computed dynamically – but I want to save it in case the formula changes as we can’t change a price already given (hence a field is required. Make sense?
IsSharedAllowed. The concept I want to introduce here is that I want to offer people the ability to share a taxi. Typically the vehicles will take 7 people, so if you are a family of 4, you have 3 spare seats. I will only allow a share if the others are on the same flight/train (if inbound – as sometimes flights are late and don’t want any additional waiting) or within [10] mins for a flight/train departure. So if a client says yes to “isSharedAllowed” we will try to combine and split the costs.
To do that we might need to link transfers together using the sharedTransfers field which will contain which transfers are being combined (typically 2 clients (ie 2 transfers) but could be more, eg 4 passengers +2 passengers +1 passenger) And then we can assign all [3] transfers to the same vehicle/driver….
For the train pickup service that is the same concept – we will have a bus (say 13 seats) that can take various combinations of passengers to fill it (could be 13 single travellers). That service will take people from LeChable train to their chalets in Verbier. Does that make sense?
The Cancel button should be a checkbox, that can be unchecked to allow the transfer to be uncancelled
Add a ‘Copy’ button that copies all the details of a given transfer, and does a Save-Re-Open too.
This is because we are often asked to do similar trips (eg pick up the family at 8am to take to school Mon, Tues, Weds)
Without opening the Extras section, we should be able to see the content, if populated, in the Transfer main box, using icons and title/hover
For Passenger Name
For the Driver, show the Departed and Arrived Times via icons and the mins late/early (see template/transfer/parts/trip_times_body.html.twig)

When you have a flight, display the flight details so easy on the eye - presumably this can be der0vied from the flight id:
Flight #/airline
To/From
Either the Scheduled Departure (for depatures) or Arrival (for Arrivals) time
Updated time (ie delays etc)
In the Transfer_macro, when spooling through the flights, only show the flights where the Date of the flight equals the date of the trip and the ‘direction’ is correct, namely:
Airport pickups: (ie meeting clients at the airport and taking to the resort- i.e. destinationStart = Airport) - then we are meeting a flight arrival
If transfer.destinationStart = 'GVA", then look for flightTrips where flightTrip.arrivalAirport = destinationStart
Airport dropoffs: (ie depositing clients at the airport and starting from the resort- i.e. destinationEnd = Airport) - then we are meeting a flight departure
If transfer.destinationEnd = 'GVA", then look for flightTrips where flightTrip.departureAirport = destinationEnd
Compute the pickup time derived from flight or train times
For pickups it is the flight/train arrival time plus the baggage time (eg 20mins for flights, 2mins for trains)
For drop-offs (going to the airport), you have to work backwards from take flight time…. less commute time (see routes entity) and the check-in time allowance ,
System Settings contain the airport and train station delays
Fix SBB scrape to include all the trains for the day (currently just taking 4-5 trains (one screen's worth), whereas I would expect there to be 30-40 trains per day (for GVA to Martigny as an example)
If the Destintaion IS a city (for either the start or end of the transfer), we need to show the dropdown list of accommodations to know where to pickup or drop off. Include the possibility of "Other"
Save the accommodation id if picked from the dropdown (ie not ‘other’)
If Other, save the input in a new field
We will need 2 fields as we may have new locations in both the pickup and dropoff . Create two new fields
addressStartOverRide
addressEndOverRide
Note: if the Destination is NOT a city (eg airport or train station), then do not show the address field at all (as there is effectively only 1 address)
Destination is a Train Station
If the Destination is a Train station, ask for train time and perhaps the origin/destination location. So the 2 fields are
trainTime (time)
trainOriginOrDestination (string)
Depending on whether Transfer picks up at Martigny or drop offs, we can work out the direction of the journey and check the times. But as far as capturing data- these are the 2 fields
Destination is an Airport (eg GVA)
We need to know the flight details (time, airline, city of origin or end) for both for (1) pickups from at airport (ie where the transfer starts at GVA) and (2) drop-offs at the airport (ie where the transfer ends at GVA)
However it is the case that only one of the Start or End is an airport - (ignoring the case where we are picking someone up at one airport and driving them to a second airport to take another flight - that never happens)
So while we need to capture the details of the flight (airline, flight number, destination/origin city, time) if not found in the flight database. we can work out if it is a departure or arrival from whether the Transfer is picking up or dropping off at the airport. So in the Transfer Entity you can use the same fields for Over-rides on the flights

The sign is the file used as a background on the driver's iPads when collecting the client from the airport. So it will have the hotel/chalet logo etc and on top of it it will show the client name.

My idea is that various taxi companies and individual taxidrivers all share the same software and I will be able to see across the various competing taxi drivers and re-allocate trips or new trips to whoever is best placed to offer them.
In truth this is to match drivers who are going back empty with a customer who needs taking
Do you think this makes sense that there are [20-50] taxidrivers sharing the same database -or should i clone it?
So I want to offer each taxi driver their ‘own’ website. So they can give their clients that site and book trips there themselves (as an incentive to use the system)
So let's say there are 50 drivers.
Can I control 50 x CMS inputs centrally (ie each CMS page would need to be linked to a taxi driver)
Can I point their own website to my code (eg. www.johnstaxi.com) if they already have a URL?
So in each Partner company I would include theirwebsite link if they are adopting my system
A lower standard is that they can just see the trips and can bid on them (and manage them themselves).

The each site will have some specific code unique to each site. The problem I have is that the USER entity needs to be slightly different for each site, so I can't copy those across. How can I maintain consistency and the uniqueness. My thought was to split the user entity in two and embed the second (different) USER2 contents within the USER form. Any suggestions

To calculate the optimal zoom level for a Google Map that just fits all of your venues without scrolling, you need to determine the bounding box that encompasses all the venue locations. Based on the bounding box, you can compute the zoom level that ensures all the venues are visible. Here’s how you can approach this:
Steps to Calculate Optimal Zoom Level
Find the bounding box: For all your venues, compute the min and max latitudes and min and max longitudes:
minLat = minimum latitude of all venues
maxLat = maximum latitude of all venues
minLng = minimum longitude of all venues
maxLng = maximum longitude of all venues
Calculate the geographical range:
The latitude range is: latRange = maxLat - minLat
The longitude range is: lngRange = maxLng - minLng
Calculate the center of the map: The center of the map is simply the average of the latitudes and longitudes:
centerLat = (maxLat + minLat) / 2
centerLng = (maxLng + minLng) / 2
Calculate the diagonal distance: The diagonal distance between the top-left and bottom-right corners of the bounding box is critical for determining the zoom level. You can use the Haversine formula or a simplified approximation to compute the distance.
The Haversine formula is:
a = sin²(Δφ/2) + cos(φ1) ⋅ cos(φ2) ⋅ sin²(Δλ/2) c = 2 ⋅ atan2(√a, √(1−a)) d = R ⋅ c
Where:
Δφ = difference in latitude (in radians)
Δλ = difference in longitude (in radians)
φ1, φ2 = latitude values in radians
R = radius of the Earth (mean radius = 6,371 km)
d = the distance between the two points (diagonal distance)
Estimate zoom level: Based on the diagonal distance, Google Maps provides a rough way to estimate the zoom level, which is typically from 0 (world) to 21 (street level). A common approach is to map the diagonal distance to zoom levels using a logarithmic scale, but this depends on the map's current bounds and the projection used. Generally, a simplified formula is:
maxZoom = the maximum zoom level allowed (usually 21)
maxDistance = the maximum diagonal distance you want to show (e.g., distance across your entire map's viewable range)
scaleFactor adjusts for the desired map fit
Using Google Maps API to Simplify:
You can simplify this calculation by using the Google Maps API, which has a method to fit markers within a viewport using fitBounds():
// Assuming you have an array of venue locations in {lat, lng} format: const locations = [ {lat: 40.748817, lng: -73.985428}, {lat: 40.748217, lng: -73.985128}, // Add other venues here ]; // Create a bounds object const bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds(); // Extend bounds to include each venue locations.forEach(location => { bounds.extend(new google.maps.LatLng(location.lat, location.lng)); }); // Create a map with the bounds set const map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map"), { center: bounds.getCenter(), // Center map at the average of the venues zoom: 15 // You can let Google automatically choose the zoom or set a default }); // Fit map to the bounds map.fitBounds(bounds);
This method will automatically adjust the zoom level and center based on your venues, ensuring all the locations are visible without scrolling. You don't need to manually calculate the zoom level if you're using this approach.

I am building a system to manage client bookings and although i would prefer that clients book online directly, some do email me. I would like to build the ability to import the content, subject line and sender and date from my email system (eg Outlook) email into a record in the database
My plans is that emails that need to be brought into the booking system would be moved to a specific directory (eg “Upload to system”) and these are the emails that the booking system would see and extract the data from. The booking system would need access to the email
Export all clients or VCF, that aggregates across both the User, Client and Dog entities.
Contact form included that will upload to client CRM (checking for duplicates)
Client contact details (and notes re dog) can be exported to a VCF or CSV so you can upload your client details directly into your phone/contacts (so you recognized in-coming calls/emails etc)
With a career spanning several prestigious institutions, I have accumulated a wealth of experience and expertise that can be of significant value to your organization. I invite you to explore my journey and accomplishments in various roles across the financial industry.
During my tenure at JPMorgan, I led a transformative initiative within the Clearing and F&O business. By introducing front-office risk-management and pricing discipline to this previously considered "agency" business, I successfully revamped the risk and capital infrastructure. This endeavor resulted in doubling the revenue of the Clearing business while reducing the capital, GSIB, and residual interest footprint. Notably, my team's contributions led JPMorgan to win the Risk award for best OTC Client Clearer in 2019 and 2021.
Prior to that, I played a pivotal role in implementing funding adjustments (FVA) and lifetime cost of capital (KVA) for the derivative franchise globally, which had a substantial impact on the firm's performance. Furthermore, I spearheaded the introduction of single and multi-currency OIS discounting for collateralized derivatives, establishing a centralized firm-wide utility for managing funding risks across all lines of business and regions.
The idea of capturing value in trades through recognition of different eligible assets (i.e. initially the issue of moving from Libor to OIS discounting, but also extending to other assets in the CSA) has been well known since around 2009-10 (when GS reputedly made the majority of their FICC revenue optimising for this). Most dealers have updated their systems to avoid this arbitrage in their bilateral business (crystallizing considerable costs for the late movers).
However, this concept is not completely efficiently captured in every aspect of the market, for example where the trades are “given-in” under a Clearing Agreement. That market is a post trade approval market and essentially DD-agnostic and hence it is still open to arbitrage. Specifically, when a client goes to market, the Executing Broker (EB) prices the trade according to their DD curve facing the Clearing Agent. These can be different from different EBs, and is not the same curve as the DD curve the Clearing Agent has with the client. So, in effect, the trade is priced on the “wrong” discount (DD) curve and a client could potentially identify backwardation opportunities particularly for trades with large funding deltas.
2. CVA mining and IM optimisation – XVA Hub
Should a corporate or hedge fund have any uncollateralised risk, a Central Hub function could help mine bank’s CVA reserves where there are offsetting risk and or credit deltas across counterparties.
Similar to CVA mining, moving trades between counterparties can optimise the availability of the $50m threshold under the Non-Cleared Margin Rules (NCMR), reducing total IM funding needs. For example, if their cost of debt is 5%, adding 5 dealers and optimising for threshold could save 5*$50m*5% = 12.5m per annum
Another specific variant of the IM optimisation idea is to convert Cleared IR delta into uncleared put and call swaptions, where the IM can be bilaterally negotiated and offset bilateral risk. In essence, it can result in free funding.
A large hedge fund, recently set up a Central Hub to manage the relationships and XVAs with all their dealers, to prevent unnecessary credit costs/exposures and to minimise margin funding costs.

Currently the code tracks the status - basic details scraped, then full scrape. I think we need to consider how we refresh the basic scrape (check # connections count?) to see if a new scrape is required
So how should it work
First time use:
Hide “Import and Email button”, and “Export” and "Email" buttons
Hide Connections Scraped info button
Scrape button should show: 1) Import Connections.
This should popup the following text box: “Step 1. Our servers will now login to Linkedin and pull in the basic details of all your [1,234] connections. …..”
I have a system that allows users to scrape their LinkedIn connections and export the results as a VCF or XLS. The result is that their LinkedIn connections are in their contact lists, on their phone etc. Technically it works by initially scraping the basic details of each of the user's connections and then subsequently the server opens each connection and scrapes all the details in full (education, employment, languages etc). The first process takes a few minutes only. The second process can take hours or days depending on the number of connections. To avoid the anti-scraping policies we have to do them in batches with a delay between each batch, hence it can take days.
I need help to do the following: Design buttons that logically walk a new user through this process. The buttons can appear/disappear as appropriate. What should the buttons do? So my thoughts were that the Scrape button should initially say “Scrape” and it will popup with the following message “Step 1. Our servers will now login to LinkedIn and pull in the basic details of all your [1,234] connections. This will take a few minutes. After that process you will be able to see the basic details (name, photo, current position) of each of your connections in the index here. However, the ”full scrape" (resulting in Employment, Education, and other details) will take time (about [3] days), as it is done in batches. Once complete we will email you to let you know (on xxxx@xxx.com) and you can view them all in the index and download VCF for use in Outlook or XLS for more detailed analysis. You can login and check at any time the progress. Would you like us to email you progress reports or simply when complete?"
I was wondering if i should then show a second button “2) Initiate full connection-level scrape” or whether I should just go ahead and initiate the process. I also have a display that tells them progress so far. Do you agree with that approach or how can you make it easier. I also need to build a process to update the download - how should i handle that?

Flight database
The objective is to build up a database of all future airline/flight numbers/departure/arrival times for a given airport (eg PFO).
The objective is to get data about every flight scheduled in to/out of Pathos airport (or Geneva airport). So each day going forward, i want to see the flight number, airline, destination/departure airports, schedule time and actual departure/arrival times.
The flight database is designed to provide data to the AXtools and the ParkNRide projects.
To do this I want to list all the destinations served by an airport (eg for PFO it is LGW, FRA, LHR, LSN, etc)
For each date and route (eg LGW-PFO), return the flight details.
Look for direct (non-stop) flights only
Return the list of flights (date, airline, take-off and landing time, price)
We will match that to a database of flights (airline, route, time) to get a flight number. If a new flight, add a new record to look up the flight number.

Question: Do we wait for all the first choices to be available before ‘hitting’ a second choice? Or do we go through each hour and hitting the best one? (Do you see the problem?)
Perhaps we should make that a question : “Would you like us to immediately book a non-first preference option if there are some courts at your first preference still to be released? Be aware if we then wait those second/third/fourth choice options might have gone?”
We also have to think about how we use the bidding process...
For a single venue/hour…. Do we give them a choice of court, or any court?
And do we charge the full bid price, or the next best bid +£1? How will the client know? Do we show the current highest bid to encourage a higher bid- Yes? And do we tell the first bidder that they have been out-bid?
I think we just take the full amount and the client

Taxi app
As you know, we haven’t yet managed to get the Alpex software to work standalone, but once we have that working I would like to adapt it in a number of ways. My first objective is to enable it to work for at a number of new airports and more strategically I want to move away from the owner-operator model (where I own the cars and employ the drivers) to an aggregator model where we outsource to other single driver operators. This will be quite a build change. In addition I want to build a iPhone (and maybe Android) version of the client website so we can use the client tracking features.
Park-To-Fly
I have seen a company here in Cyprus that could benefit from most of the functionality of the Alpex software. The company essentially provides a car park close to the airport, where passengers can park their cars near the airport while they are on holiday, and the company drops them to/from the airport in small buses.
In essence, from an IT perspective, their business is very similar to my Swiss bus company (Alpex), so I was proposing to strip down the Alpex system to automate that business. The key is that it requires the company to track flights, and move people on/off a shared bus to/from the airport. So there are lots of synergies.
Accommodation software
I was going to buy a house in Cyprus and rent it out in the summer months. I would like to build a website for to advertise that house and others around. Similar to booking.com
Kids Travel Lite
I met the owner of a company called KidsTravelLite.com. In short, that company hires children’s equipment to tourists while they are holiday (e.g. prams, cots, toys). Her site is aesthetically beautiful but very simple, and I offered to improve it. It does not do inventory management or track flights and this could synch into the taxi app. One idea is to integrate the hiring with the taxi to/from the airport
Recruitment site
Overall app
I thought I would ultimately combine all the with the tennis club website into a single offering (single resort app) as they all rely on some similar info (e.g. accommodation details, flight details)and I can see synergies if customers only have 1 login. In future I can add restaurant bookings, baby sitters etc. Perhaps that ‘single login’ is something we should talk about at the start?
