AIRLINE RESERVATIONS SYSTEM (ARS) are systems that allow an airline to sell their
inventory (seats). It contains information on schedules and fares and contains a database of
reservations (passenger name records) and of tickets issued.

AIR MALAYSIA GROUP (AMG) is a Malaysian multinational luxury low-cost airline. It

is one of the fast-growing largest airlines in Malaysia by fleet size and destinations. Air
Malaysia Group operates scheduled domestic and international flights to more than 100
destinations spanning 25 countries. AMG decided to enhance their online booking by
including their up-to-date promotion for their flight booking, incorporate airline schedules,
fare tariffs, passenger reservations and ticket records.

Therefore, by implementing appropriate programming logic and concepts, AMG requires you
to develop Python program for the ARS with the following functionalities to be included in
the program:

1. Functionalities of All Customers (Registered / Not Registered)

1.1. Display all airline schedules
1.2. Search airline by from, to, date departure, date return
1.3. Add new customer register to access other details
1.4. Exit

2. Functionalities of Registered Customer (Membership)

2.1. Login to access system
2.2. Display details of
2.2.1. My profile: keep user details such as name, dob, phone no., citizenship, travel
document details, emergency contact, saved credit/debit card details, etc...
2.2.2. My bookings: keep track of upcoming and past flights booked using booking
number, etc...
2.3. Add flight booking
2.3.1. Select flight details such one-way/return ticket, class, passenger type, trip
summary, cabin baggage, checked baggage, include travel insurance, choose
seating (random, window, aisle, extra legroom), redeem points, etc...
2.3.2. Proceed to payment to confirm booking
2.4. Modify details of
2.4.1. My profile
2.5. Log out

3. Functionalities of Admin
3.1. Login to access system.
3.2. Add flight schedules (flight number, from, to, date & time (departure & return),
price, etc...)
3.3. Modify flight schedules
3.4. Display all records of
3.4.1. Flight schedules by flight number (ex: AM845)
3.4.2. Flight booked by customer
3.4.3. Total tickets sold (up-to-date profits earned, etc...)
3.5. Log out

4. Filter flight schedules by
4.1. Flight number
4.2. From
4.3. To
4.4. Date
5. Manage the cases created by customer
5.1. Provide answer to the cases
Functionalities of Admin

1.0REQUIREMENTS
i. You are required to carry out extra research for your system and document any
logical assumptions you made after the research you made from existing system
you know

ii. Your program should use symbolic constants where appropriate. Validations need
to be included to ensure the accuracy of the system. State any assumptions that
you make under each function.

iii. You are required to store all data in text files. There is no limit on the number of
text files that can be used but they should be kept minimum.

iv. You are expected to use list and functions in your program. Your program must
embrace modular programming technique and should be menu-driven.

v. You may include any extra features which you may feel relevant and that add
value to the system.

vi. There should be no need for graphics in your program, as what is being assessed,
is your programming skill not the interface design. The marking scheme for the
assignment has been provided so that you clearly know how the assessment for
this assignment would be done.

vii. You should include the good programming practice such as comments, variable
naming conventions and indentation.

viii. In a situation where a student:

- Failed to attempt the assignment demonstration, overall marks awarded for
the assignment will be adjusted to 50% of the overall existing marks.
- Found to be involved plagiarism, the offence and will be dealt in accordance
to APU regulations on plagiarism.

ix. You are required to use Python programming language to implement the solution.
Use of any other language like C/C++/Java is not allowed.

x. Global variables, build in functions like min, max, sort, etc… are not allowed.
Only string functions are allowed (ex: strip, split, etc…).
2.0 DELIVERABLES

You are required to submit a softcopy of:

i. Program coded in Python – submitted as .py file.

- Name the file under your name and TP number (e.g.
KATHY_SIERRA_TP123456.py)
- Start the first two lines in your program by typing your name and TP number
(e.g. as follows): #KATHY SIERRA #TP123456
ii. Text files created through test data – submitted as .txt files.
iii. A documentation of the system – submitted as PDF format (and be named
using format <student ID 1>_<student ID 2>_<intake>pdf. For example
“TP012345_TP735241_UC2F1910CS.pdf”file) that incorporates basic
documentation standards such as header and footer, page numbering and includes:
1. Cover page
2. Table of contents
3. Introduction and assumptions
3.1. brief intro of the programming, Python, and the system you developed
4. Design of the program
4.1. using pseudocode and flowcharts – which adheres to the requirements provided
above
5. Programming concepts with explanation (ex: control structure, looping, etc…)
5.1. List all the programming concepts that you implemented and show the example
of usage from the code you written
6. Additional features source code with explanation
6.1. features implemented other than the listed functionalities
6.2. Only will be taken into consideration if all functionalities had been implemented
7. Screenshots of sample input/output with explanation
8. Conclusion
8.1. How do you improve your understanding the programming concepts (early
semester vs end semester)
8.2. What difficulties you encountered and how did you overcome it?
9. References using APA
9.1. If you use some code which has been taken or adapted from another source
(book, magazine, internet, forum, etc.) then this must be cited and referenced
within your source code, and this must be mentioned explicitly in the report.
Failure to reference code properly will be treated as plagiarism. Automated tools
for checking code similarities among submissions will be used, and all detected
cases will be treated as cheating.
