FlightView Access

FlightView, the leading provider of accurate real-time flight information, was selected by Memphis International Airport to manage new real-time flight data services for their website. Memphis will add Access netFIDS (Flight Information Display System) to their public website, giving travelers and their loved ones access to key flight status information before they leave the house.

Visitors to the Memphis International Airport homepage are one click away from a customized FlightView netFIDS web page where the latest available flight status information for arrivals and departures is presented in a clear, concise layout. Visitors can sort flights to quickly locate their flight of interest and then click through to view the technical details of the flight including E.T.A., speed, altitude and an informative map image showing the actual position of the flight along its route.

Larry Cox, President and CEO of Memphis-Shelby County Airport Authority, says, "We recognized a need to provide flight status to our visitors over the internet and found FlightView's products and customer support to be among the best in the industry. By providing flight status to visitors before they leave for the airport, we hope to improve traffic flows and parking at the airport as well as save time for anyone picking up passengers."

The FlightView team currently works with over 40 airports around North America including hub cities Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, Chicago's O'Hare, New York's JFK and San Diego and has enjoyed the opportunity to assist Memphis with their particular needs.

Lorraine Flynn, President of FlightView, explains, "We are proud to count Memphis International Airport, a crucial freight and passenger hub, among our growing international list of airports that rely on our real-time flight data for their customer service and operational support."
