Domestic airlines are in the final stages of deploying the DGCA-mandated flight-tracking technology. The carriers are in talks with SITA, which provides airlines communication solution through its fully owned subsidiary, OnAir, to deploy the technology, said Maneesh Jaikrishna, VP, SITA – India and subcontinent.
Air Costa, Air Asia and Vistara have already deployed the solutions as they operate newer aircraft, which come with the tracking technology provided by SITA. Other including IndiGo, Air India, Jet Airways, Go Air and SpiceJet, are in advanced stages of deployment.
The flight-tracking technology allows airlines to stay in touch real-time with the ground through remote ground station equipment — which enables continuous monitoring of flights even when they are air-bound. It will establish connection between the pilot and the airlines’ operational control through live messaging.
