Airport Information System (AIS) was created to help travelers manage and control their journeys. It is designed as rich web application suitable for personal computers, laptops and small portable devices (in particular PDAs and smartphones). The main advantage of this approach is its availability to a wide group of people, low maintenance cost as well as its ease of use and customization.
In addition to its basic functionality, AIS provides services enabling easier navigation through airports (maps, interactive navigation) as well as dedicated offers and promotions (including shops, restaurants and other airport facilities). The system also provides entertainment to make layovers more enjoyable. This feature includes music, videos on demand and online games.
The assistance that the system offers is not limited only to the airport and the flight itself. Upon arrival at the destination, the passenger will be provided with convenient means of transportation, hotel reservations and suggestions about which places are worth visiting.
Access to various parts of the system may either be free, paid directly by the user or indirectly by external parties interested in advertising their services.
