Movement Messages (MVT) have been added to the amelia GDS implementation. These are used to communicate flight arrival and departure times, delay information, basic passenger information and other flight and aircraft operational statistics.
Figure: Flight Watch - Flight Departure Event
Figure: Flight Departure - Resulting GDS MVT message
Please note that MVT messages MUST be sent to Type B TTY addresses, and cannot be sent via e-mail. Further enhancements to the GDS (and to the user interface in ameliaRES) are planned for future releases.
In order for this feature to function properly, the delay codes MUST follow the IATA Standard, ie. they should be ONLY two characters.
