INTRODUCTION

Indian Airlines is one of the largest and busiest rail networks in the world, covering a route

length of over 62,000 km and transporting about millions of passengers and freight daily. The

Airlines meandering through the tunnels, the deserts, and mountain ranges traverse through the

length and breadth of the country, unfolding the landscapes and history of each state.

Airline reservation System is the application of planning organizing and control concepts to

critical-one-of a kind projects.The fundamental objective of a project work is to demonstrate how

tedious manual work using the computer capabilities can easily do. Airline Reservation System

helps user to get Airline ticket information online rather than manually. Specifically, it does the

following:-

1. Determines the user’s login and password.

2. Process to compile the computerized querying.

3. Process the module of Reservation.

4. Process the module of cancellation.

5. Process the module of PNR Status.

6. Process the all the queries as and when required.

7. Provides all printable forms and reports.

8. Keeps and maintains all the invoices and inventories.

NEED OF THE PROJECT

The Indian Airline is the worlds second largest Airline system. If going by figures it covers, 6853

stations and 63028 kilometers of track distance, carrying a load of 37840 passengers and around

500 tons of freight annually.

With this huge magnitude our Airline system faced a problem of a complete and fast reservation

system, which has been started as PRS (Passenger reservation system) in 1985 and was formed

around the objective of providing reserved reservation to the Flight travellers.

Due to the efforts put in this direction now reserved ticketing for anywhere in India is possible

through a network of booking terminals and Interactive Voice response systems on telephone, or

touch screens or passenger operated enquiry terminals.

Now one can easily plan the journey comfortably as the process is efficient and fast with being

easy to access. Reservations can be made through the Indian Airlines site or at the ample

reservation centers all over the country.

Also now there are authorized agencies which provide reservation facility on behalf of India

Airlines and without waiting in long line one can easily book a ticket. The booking is done

through an E-Ticket issue which have a PNR number of which one has to take a print and just

have to show at the station.It not only reservation but cancellation can also be done through this

system at ease and one can use a credit card to complete the process.

This being a big step in terms of improvement in the Airline system it is widely accepted across

the country.

OBJECTIVE

The objective is develop an automated system for the reservation of Airline which will keep

record of all related details about Airline.

The computerized reservation of Airline intends to provide better environment for customer.The

package aims to provide faster service and satisfied user as well as management of the Airlines.

DATA FLOW DIAGRAM

• DFDs are unambiguous and concise

• They can describe processing at physical as well as logical levels

• DFDs facilitate top-down development

• They permit outlining of preferences and scope

External Entity :

A producer or consumer of data

Examples: a person, a device, a sensor

Data must always originate somewhere

and must always be sent to something.

Process :

A data transformer (changes input

to output).

Data must always be processed in some

way to achieve system function.

DATA FLOW :

Data flows through a system, beginning

as input and be transformed into output.

DATA STORES :

Data is often stored for later use.

SYSTEM ANALYSIS:

System Analysis is a detailed study of the various operations performed by a system and

their relationships within and outside of the system. Here the key question is what all problems

exist in the present system? What must be done to solve the problem? Analysis begins when a

user or manager begins a study of the program using existing system.

EXISTING SYSTEM :

During analysis, data collected on the various files, decision points and transactions handled by

the present system. The commonly used tools in the system are Data Flow Diagram, interviews,

etc. Flighting, experience and common sense are required for collection of relevant information

needed to develop the system. The success of the system depends largely on how clearly the

problem is defined, thoroughly investigated and properly carried not only the mechanisms of

problem understanding but also the frame work of the solution. Thus it should be studied

thoroughly by collecting data about the system. Then the proposed system should be analyzed

thoroughly in accordance with the needs.

PROPOSED SYSTEM:

Proposed system is an “AIRLINE RESERVATION SYSTEM”. Our proposed system has the

following advantages.

User friendly Interface

Fast access to database

Less error

SYSTEM DESIGN:

INPUT FORM DESIGN :

Input Design is the process of converting user originated computer based format. Inaccurate

input data are the most common cause of errors in data processing .Errors entered by data entry

operators can be controlled by input design. The goal of designing input data is to make data

entry as easy, logical and free from errors as far as possible. In this system, the input screens are

developed according to the user requirements.

OUTPUT FORM DESIGN :

Computer output is the most important and direct source of information to the user. Efficient,

intelligible output design should improve the system relationship with the user and help in

decision-making. The outputs provide in the system are the softcopy report available for printing.

Printouts should be designed around the output requirement of the user. The output devices to

consider depend on the factor such as compatibility of the device with the system, response time

requirement and number of copies needed.

DATABASE DESIGN :

The general theme behind a database is to handle information as an integrated whole. A

database is a collection of interrelated data stored with minimum redundancy to serve many users

quickly and effectively. After designing the input and output, the analyst must concentrate on

database design or how data should be organized around user requirements. The general

objective is to make information access, easy quick, inexpensive and flexible for other users.

During database design the following objectives are concerned:-

Controlled Redundancy

Easy to learn and use

More information and low cost

Accuracy

Integrity

ENTITY RELATIONSHIP DIAGRAM

Introduction :

The entity relationship diagram enables a software engineer to fully specify the data objects that

are input and output from a system, the attributes that define the properties of these objects, and

their relationships. Like most elements of the analysis model, the ERD is connected in an

iterative manner. The following approach is taken:

1. During requirements elicitation, customer are asked to list the “things” that the

application or business process addresses. These “things” evolve into a list of input and

output data objects as well as external entities that produce or consume information.

2. Taking the object one at a time, the analyst and customer define whether or not a

connection exists between the data object and other objects.

3. Wherever a connection exists, the analyst and the customer create one or more

object/relationship pair

4. For each object/relationship pair, cardinality and modality are explored.

5. Steps 2 through 4 are continued iteratively until all object/relationships have been

defined.

6. The attributes of each entity are defined.

7. An entity relationship diagram is formalized and reviewed.

8. Steps 1 through 7 are repeated until data modeling is complete.

It consists a single process, but it plays a very important role in studying the current system. This

gives just an overview of the proposed system.
