Avianis updates weekly; however, release notes are only issued for releases with new features.
'Avianis FT' Flight Time Calculation Method
The new flight time calculation method, called 'Avianis FT', has launched and is ready to utilize for any aircraft.
Flight time calculations will not change automatically as a result of this release! In order to use Avianis FT, a user must go into the Aircraft Profile and manually change the flight time calculation method.
All newly created aircraft following this release will use Avianis FT by default. For detailed information on Avianis FT, please click here to see the full article.
To assist in the adoption of the new flight time method(s), 4 new columns have been added to the Aircraft Search. Each will display the current flight time calculation method used for that aircraft:
- FT Dom Trip - Displaying the Domestic Flight on Trips value
- FT Intl Trip - Displaying the International Flight on Trips value
- FT Dom Quote - Displaying the Domestic Flight on Quotes value
- FT Intl Quote - Displaying the International Flight on Quotes value.

Apply Multiple Tax Rates
It is now possible to apply more than one tax rate to flight legs and line items on Quotes. The multiple tax rates also carry through and are supported in Invoices. For now, the single default tax rate is still applicable for both Finance > Settings (tab) > Taxes, and when selected on Custom Tax on Aircraft Contracts. More updates coming to tax rate application automation soon!
The existing API calls for Quotes and Invoices were not able to support returning multiple tax rates. We've added a new response field of 'tax' that will return an array of names and amounts. As long as only one tax rate is being used, the existing 'taxRate' response will continue to work and so will the new 'tax'. If multiple taxes are added, 'taxRate' will return as null and 'tax' must be used.
If the connection is not dynamic to these API calls this may be a breaking change.
API calls affected:
- /connect/v1/quote/{id}
- /connect/v1/invoice/{id}

Multiple tax rates supported in the API calls as a string for taxRates
Navigation Change: Airports
The first of many upcoming Avianis navigation structure changes in preparation of the new user permissions model.
Airports got a promotion! Find it much higher in the navigation menu - directly under Operations section - and with an updated 'location pin' icon. Also, all the airport settings are grouped on a single tabbed page.
Airports has moved up higher in the navigational list, directly under Operations
Airports Settings has a new layout
Quote Search Updates
Additional improvements to the new search page design. The new design is currently only available for the Quote Search, but over the next couple months we will be making this change to all search pages in Avianis. This new design not only has more functionality but also improves on the entire application performance.
New features include:
- Minimize the filter panel with the '<' arrow button - this improves usability on mobile
- Number of records returned in filter shown on the header bar
- An "is null" option added to filters for: Account, Sales Rep, and Trip
- Quick search (upper right) supports any combination of words, in any format, across any column of info
- The last-viewed column width settings will be remembered, per saved search on each device
