Perth Airport chief operating officer Scott Woodward said that the upgraded operational management system will swiftly increase the airport’s ability to scale up its procedures efficiently after international and domestic travel resumes completely.
Woodward said: “The new system will provide our airline partners and their handlers seamless and timely information, real-time flight updates and the opportunity for increased collaboration between the airport and its users.
“And with the current volatility, the need to deliver safe and reliable conditions for our airline partners to operate will be critical as the aviation industry recovers from the severe impacts of the pandemic.”
