The new solution for Flight Schedule Management and Seasonal Planning is based on Copenhagen Optimization’s software solution Better Airport® and Azinq’s software solution Airport Hive®.
New Flight Schedule Management and Seasonal Planning solution introduced at YYC Calgary International Airport significantly enhancing planning capabilities.
Copenhagen, Denmark - Today The Calgary Airport Authority announced its partnership with Copenhagen Optimization and Azinq on a new Flight Schedule Management and Seasonal Planning solution. The solution translates the slot requests submitted by airlines to a uniform format, which is then evaluated for all days and all parts of the airport operation, including check-in, security, baggage handling, border control, and stand/gate capacity. Based on this, the solution informs the user whether a new slot request causes any challenges at any given point in the airport operation.
With the detailed seasonal planning capability, the intention is to be able to accept more flights without compromising the efficiency of the airport operation.
The new solution has been developed in cooperation between The Calgary Airport Authority, Copenhagen Optimization, and Azinq and was taken into use in October 2021.
