Notices from Vaeroly (Platform NOTAMs)

Watch the video: Keeping pilots informed

Now and then Vaeroly itself has something every pilot and staff member should know: planned maintenance, a short outage, or a change that touches every airline. These notices are called Platform NOTAMs. They show as a banner at the top of every page, on your airline's crew centre and on Vaeroly's own pages, marked Vaeroly NOTAM, while they're in force. Important ones are amber; information is blue.

Each notice can say until when it applies. Once that time has passed it disappears by itself.

Closing a notice: press × at the end of the banner. It stays closed in that browser; on another computer or phone you'll see it until you close it there too. If Vaeroly changes a notice after you closed it, it shows again so you don't miss the change.

Airport NOTAMs from Vaeroly: some notices are about one airport, for example a closed runway. Those aren't banners: they show with your flight's NOTAMs on the booking page, the EFB and in ACARS 2.8.43 and later, for flights from, to or diverting to that airport, marked Vaeroly NOTAM, whichever airline you fly for. Your airline can't change or hide them.

Notices from your own airline (its news and NOTAMs) are separate: staff publish those on the crew centre.

For the Vaeroly team: notices are written under Platform admin › Platform NOTAMs, with a title, a short text, a level, and an optional from and until (UTC). Fill in Airport (ICAO) to make it an airport NOTAM instead of a banner, and pick Closure for a closed runway or airport. End now hides one at once; ended notices stay in the list, so it shows what was said and when.
