  The process of the flowchart shown in FIG. 3 is a process executed by the CPU 201 of the boarding customer server 102 shown in the system configuration diagram of FIG.

  In step S301, the boarding customer server 102 accepts a login from the user's client PC 103 via a network line such as the Internet, and the boarding customer server 102 receives the boarding customer DB (FIG. 13). Flight date 1301, flight no. 1302, a member number 1303, a mileage balance 1306, and a mileage number 1307 are acquired, and the scheduled flight list screen (FIG. 10) is displayed on the client PC 103 of the user.

  In step 302, the boarding customer server 102 determines whether or not the current date and time is before the departure date and time of the flight scheduled to be boarded (whether or not it is within a period during which the in-flight mileage setting can be accepted).

  Note that the acceptable period may be set to either the flight time or one hour before the flight time.

  If it is determined that it is within the period during which the in-flight mileage setting can be accepted (step S302: YES), the process proceeds to step S303.

  If it is determined that the period is not acceptable (step S302: NO), the process of this flowchart is terminated.

  In step S303, pressing of the in-flight mileage settlement button 1001 on the scheduled flight list screen (FIG. 10) is accepted. That is, the user accepts a selection of which flight the mileage is brought into.

  In step S304, the boarding customer server 102 performs detailed settings for in-flight mileage settlement. Details of this process will be described later with reference to FIG.

  Next, details of the in-flight mileage settlement setting process in step S304 of FIG. 3 will be described using the flowchart of FIG.

  In step S401, the in-flight mileage settlement setting screen shown in FIG. 11 is displayed for the flight for which the in-flight mileage settlement button 1001 is pressed in step S304 of FIG.

  In step S402, the boarding customer server 102 accepts a setting as to whether or not mileage payment is desired from the user on the in-flight mileage payment setting screen (FIG. 11). Specifically, the radio button (1101, 1102) shown in FIG. 11 accepts the setting as to whether or not in-flight mileage settlement is desired.

  If it is desired that mileage settlement is desired (1101), the process proceeds to step S403. If mileage settlement is not desired (1102), the process proceeds to step S410.

  In step S403, the setting of the number of mileage brought in from the user is accepted (the setting of the number of mileage brought into the cabin is accepted by being input to the input field 1103 in FIG. 11).

  In step S404, the boarding customer server 102 compares the value input in step S403 with the mile balance 1306 of the boarding customer DB 500, and if the value input in step S403 is smaller or equal (step S403: YES) The process proceeds to step S406, and if larger (step S403: NO), the process proceeds to step 405.

  In step S405, an error message indicating that the balance is insufficient is displayed, the process is returned to step S403 again, and an input of the number of mileage brought in is accepted.

  In step S406, the pressing of the setting completion button 1104 on the in-flight mileage payment setting screen is accepted.

  In step S407, the value of the number of miles accepted in step S403 is recorded in the number of brought-in miles 1307 of the boarding customer DB.

  In step S408, the difference between the mile balance 1306 and the number of brought-in miles 1307 (mile balance 1306-number of brought-in miles 1307) is recorded in the ground mile balance column 508 of the boarding customer DB.

  In step S409, 1 is set in the carry-in flag 1304 of the boarding customer DB, and it is recorded that there are carry-in miles.

  In step S402, a selection indicating that mileage payment is not desired is accepted (if mileage payment is not desired (1102) is selected), and the setting completion button 1104 is pressed (step S410), the process is performed. The process proceeds to step S411, where “0” is set in the carry-in customer DB carry-in flag 1304, and it is recorded that miles are not brought into the cabin.

  Note that the values set in step S407 and step S408 can be confirmed on the inquiry screen shown in FIG. (The boarding customer server 102 refers to the mile balance 1306, the number of mileage 1307, and the ground mile balance 1308 of the boarding customer DB 500, respectively, and displays them on the client PC 103.)

  Next, a process in which the mobile terminal 105 acquires mileage information of a customer scheduled to board will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG.

  5 is executed by the CPU 201 of the mobile terminal 105, and steps S507, S509, S511, and S512 are mileage information. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing steps S501 to S506, S508, S510, and S513. The CPU 201 of the communication PC 104 executes.

  In step S <b> 501, the CPU of the mobile terminal 105 displays a flight information input screen (FIG. 14A) stored in advance in the external memory 211 on the display 210.

  In step S502, the CPU 201 of the mobile terminal 105 accepts input of flight information from the user and accepts pressing of the confirmation button 1401 (step S503).

  When the confirmation button 1401 is pressed, the process proceeds to step S504, and a communication start confirmation screen (FIG. 14B) is displayed. When the confirmation button 1402 on the communication start confirmation screen is pressed (step S505), the mobile terminal 105 transmits a communication request to the mile information communication PC 104 (step S506).

  In step S <b> 507, the mile information communication PC 104 transmits a flight information transmission request to the portable terminal 105.

  In step S508, the portable terminal 105 transmits the flight information received in step S502 to the mile information communication PC 104.

  In step S <b> 509, the mile information communication PC 104 receives the flight information transmitted from the mobile terminal 105, and transmits a notification that the reception has been completed to the mobile terminal 105.

  In step S510, portable terminal 105 transmits a transmission request for a master file (FIG. 15) to PC 104 for mileage information communication.

  In step S511, the mile information communication PC 104 creates a mile master file (FIG. 15) from the boarding customer DB (FIG. 13) of the boarding customer server. Details of creation of the mile master file (FIG. 15) will be described later with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  In step S 512, the mile information communication PC 104 transmits the mile master file created in step S 511 to the portable terminal 105.

  In step S513, the portable terminal 105 receives the mile master file transmitted from the mile information communication PC. During reception of the mile master file, the screen shown in FIG.

  When the reception is completed, the process proceeds to step S514, and the portable terminal 105 transmits a notification that the reception is completed to the mile information communication PC 104. Further, the reception completion screen shown in FIG. 14-E is displayed on the display 210 of the portable terminal 105, and the mile master file whose reception is completed is stored in the external memory 211 in step S516.

  In step S517, the mile information communication PC 104 stores the mile master file in the external memory 211 with the date of the header record as the file name.

  Next, details of the process of step S511 in the flowchart of FIG. 5 will be described using the flowchart of FIG.

  The process shown in the flowchart of FIG. 6 is a process executed by the CPU 201 of the mile information communication PC 104.

  In step S601, the mileage information communication PC 104 reads the flight date and flight number from the boarding customer DB (FIG. 13) stored in the boarding customer server 102. Using the key as a key, search for customer information on the same flight.

In step S602, the number of records searched in step S601 is stored in a variable n.
In step S603, “1” is stored in the variable m.

  In step S604, the current time is stored in the variable t in the format “yyyy / mm / dd / hh / mm / ss”.

  In step S605, the values of the variable m and the variable n are compared. If “n ≧ m”, the process proceeds to step S606, and if “n <m”, the process proceeds to step S612. That is, in the process of step S605, it is determined whether or not all the records searched in step S601 have been read. If it is determined that there is a record that has not been read (step S605: YES), the process proceeds to step S606. If the record has been read (step S605: NO), the process proceeds to step S612.

  In step S606, the mth record among the records searched in step S601 is read.

  In step S607, the carry-in flag 1304 of the record read in step S606 is determined. If the carry-in flag is “1”, the process proceeds to step S608. If the carry-in flag is “0”, the process proceeds to step S610. That is, if the customer of the read record is set to bring miles into the plane (carrying flag “1”), the process proceeds to step S608. If it is not set to bring in (carry-in flag “0”), the process proceeds to step S610.

  In the present embodiment, the carry-in flag 1304 is set by the process shown in the flowchart of FIG.

  In step S608, the boarding flag of the record read in step S606 is determined. If the boarding flag is “1”, the process proceeds to step S609. If the boarding flag is “0”, the process proceeds to step S610. That is, if the customer of the read record has boarded the flight (if the boarding procedure has been completed), the process proceeds to step S609. Otherwise, the process proceeds to step S610.

  In this embodiment, the boarding flag 1305 is updated when a boarding procedure is performed from the client PC to the host system.

  In step S609, among the records read in step S606, the member number 1303 of the record in which the carry-in flag 1304 and the boarding flag 1305 are set to “1” is brought into the member number 1502 of the mile master file (FIG. 15). The number of miles 1307 is written in the number of brought-in miles 1503 of the mile master file (FIG. 15). At this time, “0” is set in the in-flight mileage 1504 of the mile master file (FIG. 15), and the same value as the carry-in mileage 1503 is set in the in-flight mileage balance 1505.

  In step S610, t (current time) is set to the update date 1309 of the record read in step S606.

  In step S611, a value of “m + 1” is set to the variable m. That is, it is set to read the next record.

  In step S612, t (current time) is set in the header record 1501 of the mile master file (FIG. 15). That is, the creation date and time of the mile master file is set.

  By executing the processing shown in the flowcharts of FIGS. 5 and 6, the customer registered in the boarding customer DB in the boarding customer server 102 is a customer who has completed the boarding procedure, and has set to bring miles into the plane. A customer database (mile master file) can be created, and by sending the file to the mobile terminal 105, the mile master file can be brought into the aircraft.

  For customers whose carry-in flag 1304 is “1”, the upper limit of the number of miles that can be used on the ground is the ground mile balance 1308. That is, the number of miles that can be used on the ground after the carry-in setting is only the mileage obtained by subtracting the number of carry-in miles 1307 brought into the aircraft from the mile balance 1306.

  Next, mileage settlement processing in the aircraft will be described using the flowchart of FIG. Note that the CPU 201 of the mobile terminal 105 executes the processing shown in the flowchart of FIG.

  In step S <b> 701, the mobile terminal 105 displays the settlement means selection screen shown in FIG.

  In step S <b> 702, pressing of a mileage settlement selection button 1601 from the user is accepted. That is, the user accepts a selection as to which payment method is used for payment. In this embodiment, since mileage payment is assumed, it is assumed that the mileage payment selection button 1601 has been pressed.

  In step S703, the member card lead screen shown in FIG. 16B is displayed.

  In step S704, the membership number is acquired by reading the membership card or inputting the membership number from the numeric keypad.

  In step S705, it is determined whether or not a member number that matches the member number acquired in step S704 exists in the member number 1502 of the mile master file (FIG. 15). That is, it is determined whether or not the customer has set up to bring miles into the cabin.

  If it exists (step S705: YES), the process proceeds to step S706.

  If it does not exist (step S705: NO), the acquired member number is cleared, the process returns to step S704, and the input of another member number is accepted. Or you may transfer to the process (step S701) which does not transfer to the process which receives another member number, but selects a payment means.

  In step S706, the settlement means confirmation screen shown in FIG. 16C is displayed.

  In step S707, an input of the number of miles used is received from the user. That is, it accepts an input of an amount to be paid using a mile brought into the plane among the amount of payment.

  In step S708, it is determined whether or not the number of mileage entered in step S707 is less than or equal to the in-flight mile balance 1505 in the mile master file. The process proceeds to S710. On the other hand, if a value larger than the in-flight mile balance is input, the process proceeds to step S709, and an error screen shown in FIG.

  In step S710, the user accepts pressing of the print button 1602, and in step S711, the receipt is printed.

  In step S712, the value acquired in step S707 (the number of miles used in the aircraft) is added to the in-flight usage mileage 1504 of the mile master file.

  In step S713, the value acquired in step S707 (the number of miles used in the aircraft) is subtracted from the in-flight mile balance 1505 of the mile master file. By this processing, a value obtained by subtracting the number of miles used in the aircraft from the number of miles brought into the aircraft is set in the in-flight mile balance 1505.

  Next, processing for reflecting the information of the mile master file (FIG. 15) in the boarding customer DB (FIG. 13) will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG. In other words, it is a process of performing mileage settlement in the aircraft and reflecting the data of the mile master file updated in the aircraft to the boarding customer DB on the ground.

  8 is executed by the CPU 201 of the portable terminal 105, and the processing of steps S804, S806, S810, and S811 is mileage information. The CPU 201 of the communication PC 104 executes.

  In step S <b> 801, upon receiving a communication instruction from the user, the CPU 201 of the portable terminal 105 displays a communication start confirmation screen in FIG.

  In step S802, pressing of a confirmation button 1701 on the communication start confirmation screen in FIG. 17B is accepted.

  In step S803, when the confirmation button 1701 is pressed in step S802, a communication request is transmitted to the mile information communication PC 104.

  In step S804, upon receiving a communication request from the portable terminal 105, the mile information communication PC 104 transmits a transmission request for a mile master file (FIG. 15) to the portable terminal 105.

  In step S805, the portable terminal 105 transmits a mile master file (FIG. 15) to the mile information communication PC 104.

  During the transmission of the mile master file (FIG. 15), the transmission screen shown in FIG. 17B is displayed (step S806).

  In step S807, the mile information communication PC 104 transmits a reception completion notification to the portable terminal 105 when the reception of the mile master file is completed.

  In step S807, when receiving the reception completion notification from the mile information communication PC 104, the portable terminal 105 displays a transmission completion screen shown in FIG.

  In step S809, the portable terminal 105 deletes the mile master file (FIG. 15) stored in the external memory 211.

  In step S810, the mile information communication PC 104 stores the mile master file (FIG. 15) received in step S807 in the external memory 211, and stores the mile master file (FIG. 15) in the mileage customer DB (FIG. 15). The contents are reflected (step S811).

  Details of the boarding customer DB update process in step S811 will be described later with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  Next, details of the processing in step S811 in FIG. 8 will be described with reference to FIG.

In step S901, the mile information communication PC 104 stores the number of records in the mile master file received from the portable terminal 105 in the variable n.
In step S902, “1” is stored in the variable m.

  In step S903, the current time is stored in the variable t in the format “yyyy / mm / dd / hh / mm / ss”.

  In step S904, the variable m is compared with the value of the variable n. If “m ≦ n”, the process proceeds to step S905. If “m> n”, the process of this flowchart ends. That is, in the process of step S904, it is determined whether or not all records of the mile master file have been read. If it is determined that there is a record that has not been read (step S904: YES), the process proceeds to step S905 and all records are recorded. Has been read (step S604: NO), the processing of this flowchart is terminated.

  In step S905, the mth record of the mile master file is read.

  In step S906, the in-flight mileage number 1504 of the m-th record in the mile master file is calculated from the number of mileage 1307 in the boarding customer DB (FIG. 13) having the same membership number as the membership number 1502 of the record read in step S905. Subtract. By this processing, a value (in-flight mile balance) obtained by subtracting the number of miles used in the aircraft from the number of miles brought into the aircraft is set as the number of brought-in miles 1307.

  In step S907, the number of brought-in miles 1307 is added to the ground mile balance 1308 of the record in the boarding customer DB. As a result of this processing, all the mileage balances of the members of the record are set as the ground mileage balance 1308.

  In step S908, the ground mile balance 1308 is set in the mile balance 1306 of the boarding customer DB. By this processing, all the mileage balances of the members of the record are set to the mileage balance 1306, and the ground mileage balance 1308 and the mileage balance 1306 become the same value.

  In step S909, "0" is set to the number of miles brought in the boarding customer DB.

  In step S910, “0” is set in the carry-in flag of the boarding customer DB.

  In step S911, “0” is set in the boarding flag of the boarding customer DB.

  In step S912, t (current time) is set to the update date of the boarding customer DB.

  In step S913, the variable m is set to a value “m + 1”. That is, it is set to read the next record. Then, the process proceeds to step S904.

  With the above processing, miles can be settled in the aircraft, and the data of the mile master file updated in the aircraft can be reflected in the boarding customer DB on the ground.

  By executing the processing described above, settlement using miles can be performed in the aircraft. Furthermore, the number of miles that were not brought into the plane can be used on the ground.
