Airportdata.com is a complete information source for airport, ground handling and related service company data. The addition of flight clearance contact information, an airline database and many useful tools makes this an invaluable asset for many airline departments, especially flight operations.

Airportdata.com has been compiled with the input of experienced pilots and dispatchers and is updated through a continuous process of update reports received directly from airports and handlers, as well as regular operator feedback. The aim is to provide you with the most accurate, complete and relevant data to assist in your pre-flight planning and dispatch operations.

The origins of Airportdata.com stretch back many years. In the mid-1980s, AC-U-KWIK began as a directory for business and general aviation pilots. The addition of an International edition in 1998 took the publication to a global audience and it soon became the leading publication for airport contact data. The publishers of the International edition, HighLine, also collected much more data than could be accommodated in AC-U-KWIK. Demand for this additional data, especially from commercial passenger and cargo airlines, led to the launch of airportdata.aero in 2011.

In 2012, HighLine was purchased by Penton Media Inc. and airportdata.aero was brought into the Penton Aviation Group. Close ties were formed with the leading airline magazine, Air Transport World (ATW) and the service was rebranded as Airportdata.com.
