PILOTLOG

Pilots and Cabin Crew at Jet2.com (UK) can import flight data as follows:

Planned Roster

Sabre CWP: import your planned roster straight from the company crew portal

This solution is more convenient for the calendar roster app CrewLounge CONNECT and is also available to cabin crew. Read more about the various functions (such as Roster Share, Chat) of CrewLounge CONNECT on the website (here).

Select the Jet2.com - Sabre CWP interface from the mobile app Settings - Airline Interface page.

Historical Data

Sabre CWP: import your performed roster straight from the company crew portal

Select the Jet2.com - Sabre CWP interface from the mobile app Settings - Airline Interface page.

EFOS: import your "Journey Log Notification" email

Pilots can import the company EFB emails straight into CrewLounge PILOTLOG. Details are listed below.

For pilots, the recommend way to go is:

download your planned roster with the Sabre CWP interface in the CrewLounge CONNECT app
after the flight, import your EFB data with the EFOS interface in the CrewLounge PILOTLOG app

When you download your roster with CrewLounge CONNECT, the events will also show up in your CrewLounge PILOTLOG logbook. You can turn-off Event Sharing in My CrewLounge - Roster - Airline Interface (here).

How to import EFOS?

You can install CrewLounge PILOTLOG on the company iPad, or you can use your personal device (iOS, Android, Windows, Mac).

Configuration

Open the CrewLounge PILOTLOG app:

1) on the Settings - Airline page, select the new interface EFOS for Jet2.com

fill-out the different settings that come with this interface

2) on the same page in the Import Events section, make sure that Historical Data is turned On for Flights (and Duty - optional)

if you run CrewLounge PILOTLOG on multiple devices (iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, PC) then verify the settings on ALL your devices (just to make sure that everything got synched)

3) on the Pilot List page, edit pilot SELF and insert your name "as printed" in the EFOS journey log as Roster Alias.

typical format used is "John DOE" (case sensitive !)
omitting this step may result in your name and Pilot SELF both being listed on the same flight. Continue with this solution article "SELF and My Name showing double" (read here) to clean-up your logs.

4) on the Settings - Flight Logging page, select AUTO LOAD TASK = "from Airline interface / EFB"

this setting allows to retrieve PF/PM from the EFB and calculate Takeoff-Landing accordingly

Different import methods

You can import your EFB data in 3 different ways!

All methods require internet access. You cannot share your data with CrewLounge PILOTLOG offline. Batch import (multiple files at a time) is not possible, you must share or email the files one-by-one.

Choose the method that is most convenient for you. Here is an overview, the details are outlined further down in this article.

EFB Inbox

Forward your EFB emails to the dedicated CrewLounge EFB Inbox. This method is fully automatic, no buttons to click in the app!

EFB Share

If you have installed CrewLounge PILOTLOG on the company iPad, you can push the EFB data straight from the company email to your logbook, using the EFB Share method.

You can also push the EFB data from the company iPad to your personal device via AirDrop (iOS, MacOS) or SnapDrop (Android, Windows PC) and then import the data with the CrewLounge PILOTLOG app on that device.

EFB Web

the flights automatically sync to your CrewLounge PILOTLOG app
