FlightBI was proud to participate as a Gold Sponsor at the 2026 JumpStart® Air Service Development Conference in Chicago. Over three days, we had the opportunity to meet with airport executives, air service development professionals, consultants, airlines, and industry partners from across North America.
The conference provided an excellent forum for discussing the evolving challenges and opportunities facing airports of all sizes. We were pleased to hold 26 one-to-one meetings, allowing us to learn more about individual airport priorities, reconnect with existing customers, and introduce our Fligence Catchment platform to new organizations.
Many of the conversations focused on the growing importance of understanding passenger catchment areas, travel behavior, market leakage, and competitive dynamics. Through live demonstrations, we showcased how Fligence Catchment combines mobility data and airline ticketing data to help airports better understand where passengers originate, where they travel, and how market trends are changing over time.
We also had valuable discussions about route development, air service opportunities, and data-driven decision making. These conversations reinforced the need for actionable market intelligence that helps airports allocate resources effectively and support successful air service strategies.
We would like to thank everyone who took the time to meet with us during the conference. We appreciate the insights shared and look forward to continuing these conversations in the coming weeks.
If you would like to learn more about Fligence Catchment or schedule a demonstration, please contact us.
We look forward to seeing everyone again at future aviation industry events.
