Era Systems says its fully hosted Itinerant Aircraft Billing (IAB) system built for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ) has been successfully installed and is now in full operational use. The solution, which utilizes Era’s multilateration surveillance system and built on the same technology as AirScene.com RevenueVue, has been deployed at John F. Kennedy International and Newark Liberty International (EWR). The system was specifically designed to look beyond the charges typically captured by a standard landing fee system to address itinerant operations, parking, as well as terminal use fees. Previously, PANYNJ, one of the largest airport systems in the world, relied on separate, uniquely configured billing systems at each of its managed airports, requiring extensive back-office accounting work. The new Era billing system provides faster, more accurate information and streamlines the billing process by having a single system automatically send invoices through PANYNJ’s accounting system, in a process that takes minutes rather than days.
