Southwest Florida International Airport Contracts for PASSUR® Landing Fee Management System
Greenwich, CT — PASSUR Aerospace, Inc. (OTC: PSSR.OB) announced today that Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) has contracted for PASSUR solutions designed to ensure that the airport captures all its landing fee revenue, that all users are paying only their appropriate share, and the process is simplified through automation.
“A transparent, accurate and automated landing fee process benefits the airport, its airline partners, and other users of the facility” said Ben Siegel, deputy executive director administration for Southwest Florida International Airport. “We selected PASSUR’s landing fee management program because of its widespread adoption by the industry, its reputation for accuracy, and because it will pay for itself.”
“Airlines and airports today need to be assured that critical business processes are managed as efficiently and cost effectively as possible,” said Jim Barry, President and CEO of PASSUR Aerospace. “Our landing fee management program reflects a convergence of interests between airlines and airports across the industry around this critical financial process.”
The PASSUR Landing Fee Management System
Airports today are expected to capture all revenues from all flights, assure their airline partners that fees are levied fairly, transparently, and efficiently, and explore new avenues of activity-based revenue. The legacy system of airline self-reporting has become a complex, time-consuming and inefficient process. The PASSUR Landing Fee Management Program and Airport Management Business Intelligence Reports puts airports in control of these critical revenue streams by giving them and their airline partners the independent, standardized and accurate information tools they need to ensure complete revenue capture, quicker revenue recognition and payment, and effective forecasting and analysis. The program also includes the option for a rich aviation operation statistics data feed into Airport Operational Database (AODB) systems, and other related reports such as Remain Over Night and gate utilization.
The PASSUR Landing Fee Management System enables airlines to standardize and automate the landing fee process across all airports to ensure accuracy, transparency and cost efficiencies. Working in concert with airlines at more than 25 airports, this system has helped ensure that airlines are not subsidizing airfield operations beyond actual their actual use, resulting in millions of dollars in annual savings.
