Need for More Efficient, Less Costly Processing of Landing Fees
GREENWICH, Conn., Sept. 29, 2006 — Megadata Corporation (OTC: MDTA) announced today that Boeing Field/King County International Airport has contracted for PASSUR(R) Pulse(TM) software for landing fee management. The airport will also use PASSUR Portal(TM) for real-time management of operations.
"Boeing Field represents a growing segment of our airport market, mixed-use airports, where signatory and non-signatory traffic place complex demands on airport administration for revenue collection," said Jim Barry, Megadata President and CEO. "We're pleased that Pulse enables airports like Boeing Field to create a simple but effective auditing and billing system without a big investment, resulting in lower costs and increased revenue."
The airport will use PASSUR Pulse software to implement a simple, efficient means of tracking, auditing and capturing all landing fee revenue, ensuring that this revenue stream is maximized, while also spread equitably because of accurate and detailed activity reports.
PASSUR Pulse gives airports easily distributed access to landing fee and operations reports from the unique PASSUR database of flight information, through a secure web site.
PASSUR Portal reinvents the way the aviation industry accesses timely, accurate and complete information for tasks such as gate and connections management, airfield optimization, and landing fee management. It provides a web dashboard onto the one-of-a-kind PASSUR database of live flight information affordably and simply, and is also the access point for all other PASSUR web services.
