Collins to integrate FlightAware Foresight with AirPlan for efficient airport operations

Collins Aerospace is planning to integrate its latest FlightAware Foresight to ARINC AirPlan solution to provide customers with an advanced and accurate view of airport operations. AirPlan enables airport operators to maximise the use of resources to ease congestion and cut turnaround times. With this application, airports can manage their resources such as gates, check-in desks, and baggage belts, etc. from a single application on any computer or mobile device connected to their network.

With the addition of Foresight predictive data, airports will receive more precise flight ETAs and Taxi-out times, which increases the accuracy and efficiency of the information used to optimize airport operations.

Rakan Khaled, general manager, of Airport Solutions for Collins Aerospace, said: “The integration of FlightAware data into AirPlan is a great example of how Collins is turning data into value for our customers. Anytime we can help an airport increase their efficiency we’re also helping them save money and improve the sustainability of their operations which is the goal of every customer we work with.”

Collins Aerospace acquired FlightAware in 2021 as part of its focus on improving the passenger experience and growing the aviation-connected ecosystem.
