Publication number: 20260037906Abstract: An example method includes receiving first data indicative of a plurality of predetermined configurations for loading cargo into a compartment of a cargo hold of an aircraft. Each of the plurality of predetermined configurations includes a possible layout of a plurality of unit load devices. The method further includes receiving second data indicative of shipments available for transportation in the aircraft. The method further includes determining a plurality of possible shipping configurations from the plurality of predetermined configurations, each one of the plurality of possible shipping configurations comprising an assignment of the shipments into or as one of the plurality of unit load devices, and a location of each of the plurality of unit load devices within the cargo hold of the aircraft. The method further includes determining one of the plurality of possible shipping configurations that satisfies a rule.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 30, 2024Publication date: February 5, 2026Inventors: June MA, Xin LIU, Cumhur GELOGULLARI, Elzbieta KIZER, Korina TRINH, Miheeth GALA, Praveen DANDA, Michael COSTELLO, Omar MATOS, Roman SHEVCHUK, Louis PREBEVSEK, Na DENG

Publication number: 20250307853Abstract: A computer based system for remapping prime class seat bookings is disclosed. The system remaps prime class bookings a floor class, or if the floor class is closed, into a higher, displacement class. Via remapping, airline systems, such as inventory management systems, revenue management systems, and the like, may better account for the true value of prime class bookings.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 11, 2025Publication date: October 2, 2025Applicant: American Airlines, Inc.Inventors: Jonathan Tracy, James Fox, Julianne Bowles, Michael Costello, Daniel Muzich, Thomas Trenga

Publication number: 20250278809Abstract: A computer-based system for unobscuring and/or unconstraining demand is disclosed. Via use of the system, actual airline seat bookings may be restated in an unobscured and/or unconstrained form, facilitating improved demand forecasts for subsequent seat bookings. In this manner, seat protects may be better allocated to align with actual demand, thus increasing revenue.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 9, 2025Publication date: September 4, 2025Applicant: American Airlines, Inc.Inventors: Jonathan Tracy, James Fox, Julianne Bowles, Michael Costello, Daniel Muzich, Thomas Trenga

Patent number: 12375577Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method includes identifying a target networking device communicatively connected to a cluster of networked server instances. The networked server instances are configured to consume network telemetry messages. The method further includes applying a shared lock to the target networking device, so that only a single networked server instance has access to network telemetry messages produced by the target networking device. The method also includes replicating the network telemetry messages produced by the locked target networking device to other server instances in the cluster, and then diverting requests for network telemetry messages from the locked target networking device to another server instance in the cluster of networked server instances. This allows the other server instance in the cluster to service the diverted telemetry data requests for the locked target networking device using the replicated network telemetry messages.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2023Date of Patent: July 29, 2025Assignee: Netflix, Inc.Inventors: Colin McIntosh, Michael Costello
