FlightAware Predictive Technology Added to The United Airlines Operational Toolset
"It is more important than ever that United operates at the highest levels of efficiency to ensure our customers have a seamless travel experience," said David Kensick, Managing Director of Network Operations Control, United Airlines. "By leveraging data from FlightAware, we are further able to accurately time our operations to provide reliable service and minimize any disruptions to our schedule."
United will utilize FlightAware's data throughout its operations, including the United.com website, the United mobile app, gate displays and in all internal operational systems. Predictive data will also be used in United's Connection Saver tool, which automatically scans flights for customers who are making tight connections to determine if the connecting flight can be held without inconveniencing other customers. With the new fully integrated solution, United will further increase its ETA accuracy and consistency.
FlightAware receives data from air traffic control systems, ground stations and satellite networks across the globe. This data is combined with FlightAware's proprietary AI models and algorithms to provide the most comprehensive flight tracking solutions to airlines.
"We're proud to offer a level of accuracy in our predictions that will enhance operational capabilities at United and help improve the travel experience," said Daniel Baker, FlightAware CEO.
