Skylegs & Click Aviation Network: Direct trip support sync
Flight operations depend on accurate information moving rapidly between the scheduling software and the ground support provider. Skylegs, an aviation management platform, and Click Aviation Network, a global trip support and OCC provider, have connected their systems directly. This integration automatically updates schedule revisions, flight services, and permit requests without requiring emails or manual input.
The challenge of separated platforms
When operators use independent platforms for flight planning and trip support, dispatch teams are forced to act as manual messengers. They must type flight details into emails, attach PDFs, and send messages across various channels to request basic services.
The main hazard arises when schedules shift at the last minute. If a flight experiences a departure delay or a route alteration, dispatchers have to spend critical time informing third-party handlers. Relying on human intervention to transfer information increases the chance of missed permit updates or delayed ground handling at the destination.
Automated information flow
The integration between Skylegs and Click Omega solves this by linking the core flight management environment directly to the global trip support network. When a mission or schedule adjustment occurs within Skylegs, the relevant flight details automatically populate inside Click’s platform.
Click retrieves this information immediately to arrange traffic rights, ground handling supervision, fuel supply, and other required flight services. Dispatchers do not need to draft separate requests or log into a secondary portal. Both internal teams and third-party handlers execute their tasks based on the exact same information, reducing errors caused by manual typing.
Real-time status
When plans change, this connection handles adjustments automatically. If a departure time shifts in Skylegs, the system alerts Click’s team directly. They can adjust active permits and ground services immediately, without waiting for the operator’s dispatch team to send an update.
Information also flows back to the operator. Service request progress and permit approval statuses feed directly into the Skylegs platform. Operations managers can track services progress from their main schedule view. This bidirectional tracking removes uncertainty from the departure sequence, giving teams confidence that ground services and permits are secured prior to takeoff.
Direct system communication delivers distinct advantages for day-to-day execution:
- No repetitive input: Dispatchers focus on flight watch rather than manually moving data between platforms.
- Information accuracy: Ground handlers execute services using the current schedule.
- Centralised tracking: Dispatch teams monitor permit statuses without leaving their primary flight management interface.
Next steps for your operation
By automating the communication between flight scheduling and trip support, operators ensure that ground services remain perfectly aligned with the aircraft’s actual movements.
