Airline Systems Solutions

PASSUR airline systems data feeds are an essential component of any airline software that requires accurate, live and detailed flight status information to perform properly. The renowned PASSUR ETA is used by major airlines to power their flight management systems, gate management, FIDS, BIDS and others. Diversion, delay, wheels up/down times are all driven by PASSUR data.

Airlines have recognized that they need an independent, radar-based source for truly accurate live updates in systems that depend on accuracy and detail. Gate management systems, for example, don’t work well without accurate ETAs and tail numbers. Connections management programs won’t rebook misconnected passengers properly if the precise status of the flight is off. And scheduling block times and crew times cost-effectively requires accurate historical on/off times, and runway utilization data.

Airlines need detailed and accurate data about other carriers, too – to market ground handling services, or analyze competitive performance issues like turn times and delay statistics. PASSUR historical reports are the most accurate, complete and detailed activity records for all carriers.

Airline Systems solutions include:

Data

Live applications

• RightETA: The most studied, documented, proven inbound flight ETA in the world. Driven by exclusive, patented algorithms and the PASSUR international radar network. 
• Used to power flight management, FIDS, gate management, BIDS, GIDS, RIDS and “busted connection/live rebooking” programs
• Includes tail numbers for systems that require ship-type identification in real time, like gate management
• Diversion and go-around alerts: Only possible through PASSUR radar data and flight tracking algorithms.
• Live flight and airspace data to power flight displays: Flight track/trajectory data, traffic flow, utilization data, flight identification data including tail numbers.

Historical applications

• Activity statistics: To drive block time, crew scheduling and gate planning software. Includes tail numbers and runways utilized for the most precise scenario building.
• Statistics to drive marketing and competitive analysis: Peaks-and-valleys profiles, turn times, on-time/delay statistics – by market, operator, aircraft type, runway, etc.

Software

• Visual flight tracking/airspace visualization: The only true real-time flight tracking programs, for an unmatched view of individual flight status and movement (base leg, in trail, vectors, holds), traffic flow – all available live and playback.
• Web dashboards: Live snapshots of operational vital signs and instant communication – all rolled into a single desktop platform as a Web service.
• Web reporting tools: Detailed activity reports for all carriers, accessible as a Web service.
