Mapping of Airline Traffic Over Internet Protocol

MATIP stands for Mapping of Airline Traffic (means airline reservation, ticketing, and messaging traffic) over TCP/IP.

MATIP is preferred over classic Airline Traffic lines because

  • it allows to use low-cost tcp/ip global networks instead airline-specific networks
  • it will decrease the number of communications sessions to manage
  • Current airline booking terminals and programs can be used with MATIP without needs of replacement

Famous quotes containing the words airline and/or traffic:

    My job as a reservationist was very routine, computerized ... I had no free will. I was just part of that stupid computer.
    Beryl Simpson, U.S. employment counselor; former airline reservationist. As quoted in Working, book 2, by Studs Terkel (1973)

    Poems stirred
    into paper coffee-cups, eaten
    with petals on rye in the
    sun—the cold shadows in back,
    and the traffic grinding the
    borders of spring ...
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
