BETTER FORECAST
An accurate forecast is the backbone of airport optimization
Is your airport’s forecasting complex, time-consuming and dependent on a few specialized employees? Then now is the time to introduce machine learning technologies into your forecasting, eliminate spreadsheets and regain time for more valuable tasks.
Better Forecast is our cloud-based forecasting solution that creates automated forecasts available to all stakeholders in minutes. Gaining an accurate picture of when passengers and bags will arrive at various touchpoints throughout the airport lets you optimize your processes and plan with confidence.
Better Forecast is part of Better Airport® – the world’s leading connected operations platform for airport operators.
Better Forecast lets your airport:
Move beyond static planning with granular forecasts – Better Forecast delivers highly detailed, flight-by-flight predictions to improve operational efficiency based on passenger, baggage flows, transfer, and hold system data.
Introduce faster, smarter forecasting with machine learning – Say goodbye to manual spreadsheet updates. Machine learning automates forecasting, reducing update times from days to minutes allowing you to adjust operations based on real-time data.
Ensure seamless integration for greater operational impact – Better Forecast integrates with your existing airport systems to utilize existing data and turn it into actionable predictions that drive real improvements.
Plan for the future, react in the present
Better Forecast supports tactical planning, day-of operations, and real-time decision-making with accurate flight-by-flight forecasts and real-time updates every five minutes.
Move beyond static forecasts and adjust plans dynamically for smoother airport operations and rapid response to real-time situations.
Forecast every aspect of your operations
Unlike traditional forecasting, Better Forecast provides a unified, multi-metric approach, covering everything from passengers, baggage flows, transfer data, and hold systems on a per-flight basis – everything your airport gathers data on, we can forecast.Â
With accurate forecasts, airports can begin to combat capacity constraints by transitioning towards demand-based operations, optimizing resources in response to actual passenger and baggage flows.
Webinar: Forecasting of timestamps
Many airports rely on generic estimates and static buffers for flight arrivals and departures, but even small timing inaccuracies can lead to inefficient planning and wasted resources. By more accurately predicting timestamps—like taxi-in, on-block, off-block, and taxi-out—airports can plan more precisely, react faster, and operate more efficiently.
Watch our webinar as Tor Fog Justesen, Chief Product Officer at Copenhagen Optimization, shares how AI-driven forecasting and intelligent buffers help airports optimize their operations to:
- Improve taxi and off-block time predictionsÂ
- Enable smarter baggage, border, and stand & gate planning
- Plan turnarounds and decrease last-minute reallocations

Although airport operations are complex and involve many stakeholders to operate smoothly it is important to consider the airport as one. In our guide, we explore how airports can:
- Drive operational optimization
- Move from descriptive to prescriptive analytics
- Eliminate silos and fragmented operations
