Flight Information Display Systems (FIDS)

Flight Information Display Systems (FIDS) are electronic displays in airports that provide real-time updates about flight departures, arrivals, delays, gate numbers, and other essential travel information. They use computer software connected to airline and airport databases to automatically update flight statuses, helping passengers stay informed about their flights. FIDS improve airport efficiency by providing clear, organized, and easily accessible information, reducing confusion and wait times. They are typically found in prominent areas such as terminal entrances, check-in counters, and gate clusters, ensuring travelers can quickly access accurate flight details throughout their journey.
