SITA AirportHub powers Cathay Dragon operations at Clark Airport
Hong Kong based regional airline brand Cathay Dragon has tapped SITA tech to boost operational efficiency and communications at Clark International Airport in the Philippines.
In adding SITA AirportHub to its operations at the airport, critical front and back-office services are strengthened thanks to the SITA AirportHub shared infrastructure.
It removes the complexity and uncertainty of dealing with local telecom providers, SITA says.
Cathay Dragon and sister airline Cathay Pacific are established airline customers of SITA AirportHub, and use the tech at 74 airports worldwide where the airlines operate.
"As an airline we need to be agile and be able to open new routes quickly and easily. When we connect our systems at an airport, like Clark International, that already has SITA AirportHub in place everything moves faster," said Kerry Peirse, Cathay Pacific general manager, IT infrastructure and operations.
SITA plans to have AirportHub deployed at 80% of its airline partners’ international destinations within three years.
"Our investment in this strategic shared infrastructure provides communication services backed by resilient dual access, greatly minimizing the likelihood of network isolation at the airport," said Sumesh Patel, SITA president, Asia Pacific.
