FlightView`s Newest Route for Cash-Stretched Airports

Info-Rich Web Sites that Cut Costs - and Make Money
BOSTON--(Business Wire)--
FlightView, the company trusted to bring real-time accurate and actionable
information to airports and airlines, today unveiled a new offering to meet the
growing customer service demands confronting airports of all sizes. With budgets
on hold in every travel sector, airports face a double-edged sword - delivering
superior customer service to travelers while cutting operating costs.

FlightView`s newest offering: Customized Flight Information Web sites for each
airport with trusted and valuable travel information - paired with brand-name
advertising. Airports get a major upgrade in how they present critical travel
information with a nominal set-up fee. The new state-of-the-art Web site makes
it possible for passengers and other viewers to rely on the airport for
real-time flight information without ever having to navigate away from the
airport`s content rich pages. Along with this, the increased traffic to the Web
site appeals to advertisers, making it easier to reach the elusive high-value
audience - the traveler. Airports can actually turn their sites into net
money-makers once audience thresholds are reached.

"We`re helping cash-stretched airports turn customers into revenue streams,"
said Michael Benjamin, CEO of FlightView. "Isn`t that a nice way to weather the
storm?"

Having an information-rich site also cuts hidden - and not-so-hidden - operating
costs, namely the need for staff on hand to answer thousands of calls each year
about weather, delays, and day-to-day flight status.

The revamped sites also brand smaller airports as competitive powerhouses, with
top-tier information reinforced by ads from major global brands.

"FlightView`s solution makes it possible for us to offer first-class service to
the more than 500,000 people visiting the airport each year," said Len Nelson,
director of aviation, Idaho Falls Regional Airport (IDA). "The offering makes it
possible for us to move from a low-cost alternative for Jackson Hole and
Yellowstone to the preferred route."
