About

Better Airport is a cloud-native SaaS platform designed to unify planning, analysis, and operations across airport functions, connecting formerly siloed processes such as check-in, baggage, security, stand/gate, and immigration. Built around the concept of “Connected Operations,” it provides a single source of truth for operational forecasting, resource optimization, and real-time decision-making by linking outcomes across passenger, baggage, and aircraft flows. It is modular, comprising nine core modules that airports can deploy incrementally (e.g., forecasting, check-in, security, virtual queuing, stand & gate) and scale up as needs grow. By integrating with existing systems, including AODB and other operational back-ends, it allows airports of all sizes to operate more efficiently and make data-driven decisions to reduce wait times, optimize staffing/equipment allocation, and enhance the passenger experience from curb to gate.

About

Ink DCS is a fully featured Departure Control System for airlines and ground handlers to process passengers from the cloud. It has everything that large Low-Cost and Full-Service Carriers need to run mission-critical operations. Modules include turnkey Web Check-in, Backup DCS, Ink Touch (a native iOS app), Kiosk Check-in and Bag Drop applications. Advanced features such as Interline Through Check-in (IATCI) and Interactive APIS enable complex operations. The comprehensive API allows airlines and other companies to build fully controllable systems on top of our headless platform. The desktop UI is browser-based. The fully integrated Mass and Balance System mirrors data across both DCS and Load Control functions.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The system is easy to use.
  • INK DCS’s ease of use allows us to keep agent training to a minimum. Its functionality aligns well with our operational requirements, making it an effective tool for our daily work.
  • BermudAir has been able to grow and improve with INK Innovations products and support. INK provides flexibility for services offered in its system, ability to have access anywhere and at any time, and they continue to develop based on the airline's needs. We recently opened an airport station with no capability to have designated check-in desks; INK came back with the perfect solution of using mobile devices and this continues to be a successful addition for our performance on a full time basis.
  • Easy to use check-in system, perfect for the size of our operation.
  • Easy to use, quick learning pattern, rich in useful functionality, no added nonsense options, modern IU, friendly admin options and reliable.

Cons

  • That it is mandatory to fill in: Cabin Doors Closed: Off Block: Actual Departure: We doesn't use that function.
  • The development of customized functions occasionally took longer than anticipated.
  • The only con to mention is that more airlines are not using INK Innovation for their operation. One recommendation for the future of mobile devices would be to combine the printing of boarding passes and baggage tags to one device. This will allow the agents to better handle the phone and printing devices between two instead of three.
  • Set-ups can be a little complicated
  • We have found none so far. If anything could be improved is maybe the Weight and balance section, specifically the administration of the database.
