Continental Subscribes To Traffic Management System

Sensis Corp., Syracuse, N.Y., said Continental Airlines will subscribe to the company’s “Aerobahn” service to more efficiently manage aircraft traffic flow at Newark-Liberty International Airport in Newark, N.J.
Aerobahn is a Web-based Service that collects a variety of operational flight data in real-time, including surveillance data from the Sensis Multistatic Dependent System. Users can conduct comprehensive, post-event analysis to accurately measure and improve the performance of the operation.
The Aerobahn system is expected to enhance Continental’s ability to more efficiently manage traffic flows on the airport surface in both routine and irregular operations, thereby reducing taxi-out delays. 
Newark is Continental’s second largest hub and joins Houston-Intercontinental Airport as the airline’s second airport location to receive Aerobahn. Continental offers more than 400 daily departures from Newark to 155 non-stop destinations worldwide.
"Aerobahn provides airlines and airport operators with the operational information they need to ensure a high level of efficiency and customer care,” said Tony Lo Brutto, vice president and general manager of Sensis Air Traffic Systems.
