Customizable and Responsive Flight Status Website Widgets

Aviatrix Communications specializes in the integration of airport Flight Information Display Systems (FIDS). We provide airports with customized, real-time solutions for displaying aircraft arrivals, departures, and flight tracking maps on their websites. Whether you’re implementing your first Flight Information Display System or improving an existing one, our team is dedicated to delivering systems that are not only reliable but also fit seamlessly with your airport’s brand and operational needs.

Data Providers

Aviatrix Communications integrates airport provided flight status data feeds into a fully responsive widget for your passengers to easily view flight information on your website. Our FIDS widgets integrate with many of the top flight status data provider feeds including OAG, SITA, Amadeus, Flyte Systems, Infax, and many more. Our expertise in handling various data sources—from cloud-based to on-premises—enables us to transform any flight status data feed into dynamic, passenger-friendly displays on your airport’s website.

Features

Each of our website flight status widgets are built to support real-time airline updates, including advanced search and filter capabilities, allowing passengers to find their latest flight details quickly. Tailored to your airport’s brand, Aviatrix Communications flight status widgets can mirror the style and format of your in-terminal FIDS screens, creating a cohesive user experience both online and in your terminal.

All of our flight status integrations are built to meet or exceed WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility requirements, ensuring that your flight status information will be accessible for all users.

WordPress Flight Status (FIDS) Plugin for Easy Website Integration

For airports using WordPress as their website CMS, our custom flight status plugin makes integration a breeze. Our plugin streamlines the setup process and offers powerful customization options to fit your airports specific needs:

  • Display Customization: Adjust the number of flights displayed and configure how long the flight information stays visible.
  • Interactive Features: Enable or disable search functionality, date navigation, and more, according to your preference.
  • Compact Display Option: Deploy a mini version of the widget on your homepage for quick access and efficiency.

Aviatrix Communications’ FIDS plugin not only simplifies the technical integration and reduces setup time but also maintains the look and feel of your airport’s digital presence with ease.

Digital Signage and In-Terminal Solutions

Beyond web-based FIDS solutions, Aviatrix Communications offers design and implementation services for in-terminal digital signage and flight status display boards. Our digital signage content designs will align with your airport’s brand, prioritizing accessibility in order to meet the Department of Justice’s forthcoming WCAG 2.1 AA digital accessibility requirements for airports. Our designers and developers are experts in ensuring that all passengers have easy access to flight information and digital content on your website and throughout your facilities.

Airport FIDS Integration: Common Questions

We’ve worked with OAG, SITA, Amadeus, Cirium, FlightAware, Flyte Systems, Infax, Terminal Systems International and Aero Display Systems, among others. If your airport runs its own feed, in the cloud or on a server on site, we can work with that too. During discovery we coordinate with your provider to confirm how the data will connect, then build the widget in your airport’s brand.

Yes. We build every flight status widget to WCAG 2.1 AA, the standard in the DOJ’s Title II rule, with accessible markup plus keyboard and screen reader testing. Flight tables are one of the harder parts of accessibility, so we test them closely. Title II deadlines are April 26, 2027 for entities serving 50,000 or more, and April 26, 2028 for smaller entities and special districts.

Yes. We start by auditing the embed you have now against WCAG 2.1 AA. If it can be fixed, we remediate it, even if another vendor built it. If it can’t, we build a custom widget on the same data feed, so your provider and subscription stay the same and only the display changes. Passengers see your airport’s design instead of a vendor’s.

Yes. Your airport keeps its own data subscription and provides API access, and the feed fees stay between you and your provider. We build and maintain the widget, and we use caching so the data stays fresh without overloading the source system or slowing down your pages. If you’re choosing a provider, we can walk you through the ones we’ve worked with.

Three things you control without touching code: how many flights show and how long each one stays visible; whether passengers get search and date navigation; and a compact version you can drop on the homepage. It is built for airports already running WordPress, so setup is short and the widget keeps your site’s look instead of dropping a stranger’s design into the middle of your page.

Yes. Beyond the website widget, we design and implement in-terminal digital signage and flight status display boards. Those designs follow your airport’s brand and the same WCAG 2.1 AA target we build to on the web. And because the web widget can mirror the style and format of your terminal screens, a passenger checking a flight at home sees the layout they will read again at the gate.
