Handle Agents & Airlines With Ease with Shared Common Use Desktops
In crowded airports, closed desks often sit empty due to only being able to access one airline’s software. With AeroCloud, we solve that issue for you. All airlines can now easily access and share the same desk – the airline simply logs in to our Cloud technology, and that desk now becomes their system. Our Common Use Desktops allow:

How Do Our Common Use Desktops Work?
Our cloud-based airport software has been designed to iron out any friction, waiting, or complexities when it comes to check-in desks. Without worrying about having to build a new terminal to house more desks, airports can utilize desks that are already available with our Common Use Desktop module.
The system is made up of two core components:
AeroCloud Software
The hub of technological intelligence
Physical Hardware
The desks, printers, and scanners used in airports
