Our FlyteBoard Integration Takes Sales to New Heights with FIDS for Travel-Centric Companies

We’re excited to announce a new partnership with leading airport technology firm, FlyteSystems for an integration of their FlyteBoard platform. The FlyteBoard app, now offered through our third-party app marketplace, lets us offer a real-time flight information display system (FIDS) for travel-centric businesses like hotels, convention centers, parking and transit terminals, training centers, and places catering to air travelers. FlyteBoard FIDS updates automatically with data that comes directly from local airports, ensuring that it’s always up to date and accurate. How can Raydiant’s FlyteBoard integration help you capture more business from traveling customers?

Airport Digital Signage, With or Without the Airport 

Although FlyteBoard is a natural fit for airport lounges and spaces, it’s not limited to airport use. That’s the beauty of Raydiant’s FlyteBoard integration: it takes real-time flight information out of the airport and expands it to other traveler-based companies. Car rental companies, public transport spaces, corporate campuses, hotels and resorts—anywhere and everywhere there are travelers, FlyteBoard can be there to make their trip a better one.

What do travelers want? According to the International Air Transport Association, over half of them want real-time notifications for flight information. Formatted similar to airport flight boards, the FlyteBoard FIDS is intuitive to read for your customers, and offers all the information they need at a moment’s notice. This includes real-time flight schedules, arrival and departure statuses, flight and gate numbers, and local airport weather and traffic conditions for one or multiple local airports. 

Instead of confusing airport acronyms, FlyteBoard uses full city names so customers can easily find their flight info. The best part? All of this information updates automatically, so no need to babysit your screens. 

Turn Unexpected Travel Delays into Opportunities

Put yourself in your customers’ shoes: if your flight was delayed, would you rather wait in an airport lounge or in the comfort of a hotel restaurant? FlyteBoard helps your customers pass the time in comfort, ordering that drink or app as they wait, or even booking an extended stay if their flight is canceled. You don’t have to be a hotel or resort to elevate your customer’s in-store experience and capture more sales—dwell time is sell time, and the longer your customers enjoy their visit with you (and monitor their flight status), the more likely they are to spend money. 

An FIDS That Drives Customer Loyalty and Repeat Business 

Cater to your frequent fliers and turn new customers into brand fans by adding a Raydiant FlyteBoard FIDS. This real-time flight board will act as an information hub that draws more customers, many of them frequent travelers who’ve just found their new favorite en-route rest spot. While they’re there, why not use your other Raydiant screens to engage them with eye-catching promos for limited-time offers, loyalty program details, frequent traveler perks, and other personalized deals?

Brand and Customize Your FIDS to Your Business 

Looking to maintain brand consistency with your in-location signage? We make it easy to import your logo, custom fonts, and other brand-specific images and messaging to your Raydiant screens. This ability extends to our FlyteBoard integration, which enables you to brand your in-location FIDS similarly. 

Along with branded content, you can set your flight boards to display the current date and time, local weather and traffic conditions, and other information that affects your customers’ travel plans. 

A Flight Information Display System That Does it All 

Catering to travelers means keeping them posted on information that affects them. That’s why the FlyteBoard app lets you add on information modules that act as secondary messaging on your flight board screens. Use it to advertise your business and promotional deals, for paid ad space, as a live doppler radar that shows current weather conditions, or a live local traffic tracker. You can also add a news feed, link your social media, display public health and safety information from the CDC and other trusted resources, and so much more.
