FIDS

What FIDS means


FIDS stands for Flight Information Display System.

This system processes flight information from


passenger related, airport related, or commercial
related databases into relevant information.

That info is ready to be shown at any display at any


location.

A Flight Information Display System covers everything that has


to do with the display of flight information inside and often
also outside the airport terminal.
The most visible part of a FIDS are of course the digital screens
that you will find all around the airport terminal. From overview
screens in the arrival & departure hall and screens above the
check-in counters to screens at the gates and baggage belts.
Ideally, every place where a passenger is expected to make a
decision or to look for information would need to have one of
more screens.

So, for an airport its crucial that


people get well informed with flight
information that is both accurate and
up-to-date. Also the information should
be adapted to the situation so that the
right people get the right information.
Information behind the security area
for instance must be different from the
information in the departure hall.

Each line on an FIDS indicates a different flight


number accompanied by:

The airline name/logo and/or its IATA or ICAO airline designator

The city of origin or destination, and any intermediate points

The expected arrival or departure time and/or the updated time


(reflecting any delays)

The gate number

The check-in counter numbers or the name of the airline handling

The check-in

The status of the flight, such as "Landed", "Delayed", "Boarding", etc.

Have a nice day!
