Airport Website Products: Common Questions
What makes Aviatrix Communications' websites different from local agency websites?
We build for airports, so the airport-specific parts already exist: flight status, TSA wait times, interactive terminal and parking maps, route maps, parking occupancy. But building them is the easy half. Knowing what a FIDS actually has to do, which feeds it depends on, how it fails and how to secure it took years and more than 50 airport sites to work out with our partners. A generalist shop can learn all of that. You just don't want them learning it on the airport's dime. Every site ships to WCAG 2.1 AA, the standard behind the DOJ's Title II rule.
How does the Foxtrot CMS benefit airports specifically?
Foxtrot is our own WordPress CMS, built for airports. Your content managers get a drag-and-drop visual builder and prebuilt widgets set up for your airport, plus a customized WordPress admin that centralizes updates, so a change happens in one place instead of page by page. It's built to WCAG 2.1 AA, and SEO is handled during the build. More than 50 airport websites run on Foxtrot. Your team owns the day-to-day content; we host, maintain and support every site we build, so the upkeep never lands on the airport.
What is included in the Airport Website Compliance Program?
The program covers cookie management, GDPR and privacy compliance, and WCAG 2.1 AA remediation and training. Compliance software watches state, local, federal, and European law and can update your policies automatically. Our designers and developers are trained in WCAG, and we partner with accessibility specialists who run manual and automated testing and fix issues in the code. Under ADA Title II, WCAG 2.1 AA is due April 26, 2027 for entities serving 50,000+, and April 26, 2028 for smaller ones and special district governments, which covers many airport authorities.
