Ink extends its portfolio of airport solutions with the certification of its CUPPS Platform. Its revolutionary pricing model will give airports unrivalled flexibility in deploying Common Use.
Ink simplifies check-in and boarding with efficient systems fitting airports of all sizes. To support the expansion of airports, dedicated low-cost terminals and stations undergoing reconstruction, the company will offer its Common Use at a flexible subscription-based purchasing model.
Victor Alzate, Chief Information Officer of Ink, said, “In today’s market, with a growing low-cost share and numerous underdeveloped airports, there’s a clear need for more flexible solutions. At Ink, we’re not just trying to fit into the existing market. Our goal is to introduce an alternative purchasing model that helps airports develop their infrastructure and operations, reducing capital expenditure.”
Ink CUPPS enables multiple airlines to share workstations and other peripherals. This reduces operational costs for airports and airlines; saving on hardware and IT maintenance. With Ink, operators could convert part of a terminal instead of all desks or all terminals in the airport. The platform complies with the latest IATA CUPPS specifications. Its backward compatibility with legacy systems and an open architecture are suitable for all CUPPS-compliant airline applications.
Ink offers a wide range of passenger-handling solutions within the Ink Ecosystem through a cloud-based infrastructure to complement its CUPPS. Airlines could easily obtain a turnkey DCS with functionality beyond basic check-in and boarding. This includes handling ticket modifications, ancillary service payments, document verifications, and more. At airports with unstable operational environments, Ink’s Disaster Recovery System backs up their primary DCS to ensure business continuity and prevent data loss.
