The complete Resource Management System for every airport

The Resource Management System (RMS) built to keep airports resilient

In an airport, almost everything moves fast: data, integrations, platforms, operations, infrastructure, APOC. But in a typical RMS, nothing seems to change.

Better Airport® is the airport RMS that goes far beyond resource allocation and updates regularly—not every few years. Using intelligent automation, we bridge check-in, stands & gates, and baggage reclaim using accurate forecasts and real-time data so you can plan months ahead, optimize to the hour, and keep operations flowing.

What you can finally accomplish with Better Airport as your RMS

Allocate scarce resources more effectively - Maximizing capacity requires constant alignment between demand and resources. Unlock cost savings before physical expansion is even required.
Anticipate demand, pivot instantly - Connect the dots between schedules and what actually happens on the ground. Using live data, accurate forecasting, and detailed scenario planning, you can plan farther ahead and adapt in real time.
Trust plans the first time - Robust, reliable plans are generated for you automatically. Planners can count on the system’s recommendations without resorting to manual workarounds.
Accommodate new air service quickly - No need to spend months or years planning for new routes or airlines. Assess capacity in a matter of weeks or less.
Ensure master plans are executed - With intelligent plans created automatically, you'll no longer have trouble turning visions into everyday execution and real impact.

Better Airport is so much more than a traditional resource management system. It's the world’s leading connected operations platform for airport operators.

Key benefits of our airport management software:

Get the full picture—finally

Our system ingests and makes sense of any relevant data, including data types you haven't modeled before. It integrates into internal systems like AODBs and FIDs, and external sources like FlightRadar and Cirium.

No drag-and-drop workarounds

The right RMS is flexible and adaptable. With Better Airport, your airport's reality sets the requirements in the RMS, not the other way around.

Plan across time and share across teams

Our RMS creates the plan for you based on optimization algorithms that get better all the time. Avoid unnecessary calls, meetings, and emails by sharing plans directly with stakeholders.

Better Airport RMS optimizes and automates baggage reclaim operations

Cost-transparent - No hidden fees, upgrade costs, or costly license renewals—ever.
Updated regularly - Typical RMS systems have lengthy release cycles, only making improvements every couple of years. Since Better Airport is cloud-based, it updates automatically and continually.
Modular by design - Every airport is unique. Combine the modules you need today, and add more when you need them.
Connected Operations, not silos - Link Better Check-in, Better Baggage, Better Stand & Gate with security, immigration, staffing, and outbound baggage for a complete picture of airport operations.
Efficiency you can measure - Reduce idle time, shorten turnarounds, and get more from stands, gates, and baggage assets. A clean, intuitive UI becomes the hub for collaboration across airlines, handlers, and stakeholders.
Built for all airport sizes - Right-sized deployments, rapid onboarding, and scalable modules fit into any airport as the operation evolves.

Connected Planning, Smoother Days – Kelowna’s RMS Story.

Duty Manager Warren Bennett shares how Kelowna International Airport moved from manual spreadsheets to our RMS solution. What once took 8–10 hours to consolidate data, plus another 3–4 hours planning stands, gates, and check-ins, is now streamlined and reliable. With automated planning and live oversight in the RMS solution, the team can step back from firefighting, trust the plan, and focus on running the terminal and the passenger experience.

A data-driven redesign of Minneapolis-Saint Paul's gate allocation

As Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) prepared for a new international route, neither terminal seemed fit for the wide-body aircraft, raising concerns with the airline. MSP used Better Stand & Gate to simulate different scenarios, where they tested the impacts on towings, turnaround times, and unallocated flights. Within three weeks, they could clearly see which of the terminals could accommodate the new route, all while maintaining operations and strengthening their relationship with the airline and terminal operating partners.

Frequently asked questions about Better Airport as an RMS

What sets Better Airport apart from other RMS systems?

We are airport people. We know firsthand how rigid traditional RMS systems can be. They create confusing “black boxes” for colleagues at every level and in every department, and force daily users to create manual workarounds that only add to their workload.

Better Airport is automated, intelligent, and flexible. Our algorithms take your specific airport needs into account, and the system creates detailed plans down to the hour. You can adapt those plans and see the potential domino effect in the rest of the airport, connecting operations in planning scenarios and in real-time.

How difficult is it to integrate my other internal systems with Better Airport?

Our airport RMS can pull in any relevant data from your internal systems, as well as external sources like FlightRadar and Cirium. We built it this way from the beginning, because we have always prioritized adaptability.

We have experience integrating Better Airport RMS with various systems across airports of all sizes, all around the world.

What modules are part of the Better Airport RMS?

Better Check-in, Better Baggage, Better Stand & Gate are the modules you would find in a typical resource management system for airports. If forecasting is an integral part of your RMS today, or you would like it to be, you can add Better Forecast. But since Better Airport is much more than an RMS, you can also connect to other parts of your operation: security, immigration, staffing, and virtual queuing.
