The link between the tower and the ground.
Airside takes mission critical ground requests off the radio. Controllers stay focused on air traffic while ground crews handle what keeps passengers safe and flights on time.

Eleven winters in the control tower.
Since 2015, Airside has run in the air traffic control tower at Montréal-Trudeau, one of the busiest and most snow-affected airports in the world. Controllers take calls from gate agents and pilots who can’t move on the ground and open emergency snow clearing requests. Several thousand are resolved within minutes every year.
Fewer radio calls, faster answers.
The Airside console in the tower creates the task. The Airside app puts it in the right crew’s hands. Ground frequencies stay free for aircraft.
Request created
A gate agent or pilot calls. The controller opens the request on the Airside console.
Right crew, right away
The request goes to the closest available crew on the Airside app.
Crew on the way
The crew accepts, drives and works, its position live on the map.
Closed and recorded
The tower sees it’s done. Everything is time-stamped for reporting.
