Aviation Information Technology
HADID has meticulously developed its own in-house proprietary software system under the name COMPASS. This flight management system and CRM has the capacity to handle thousands of flights internationally. At the time of development, this was also the first flight management system of its kind. The system has since improved alongside digital transformation trends, maturing into a newer and vastly more capable version. HADID’s in-house technology has remained a focal point to considerably improve all aspects of the business.
FBO and Executive Aviation Terminal Management
Our expertise includes the operation and management of Executive Aviation Terminals / FBOs. Our Italian Executive Aviation Terminal is operated under the name of HADID Riviera, a subsidiary company which is managed by HADID and was formed in partnership with Riviera Airport S.p.A. Riviera Airport is privately owned and exclusive to General Aviation. Located just outside of Albenga, Italy, it is under an hour’s drive from Monaco, or 20 minutes by helicopter service. Riviera Executive Aviation offers outstanding hospitality with its luxury lounge facilities, fast track customs and immigration, professional ground support services and more.
Until mid-2023, HADID operated the Mehran Lounge, situated at Jinnah International Airport (IATA: KHI, ICAO: OPKC), Karachi, Pakistan. HADID refurbished the Mehran Lounge to include, spacious rest areas, a business centre and fast-track customs and immigration. Passengers and crews benefited from exceptional customer service. Aircraft operators also benefited from quality handling services, competitive fuel pricing and reduced lead-times. HADID FBOs provide platforms from which HADID’s assistance and comprehensive range of services can be offered to General Aviation (GA) clients and operators at competitive rate
