LAS VEGAS, NV, Oct 23, 2026 – Collins Aerospace has expanded the functionality of ARINCDirect flight support services with ARINCDirect OpenAPI, an interface that connects ARINCDirect flight planning, trip and performance data with business aviation operators’ existing digital systems.
“Business aviation flight schedules can shift by the minute, and flight departments need tools and real-time information that can keep pace,” said Nicole White, vice president and general manager of connected aviation at Collins Aerospace. “ARINCDirect OpenAPI integrates the trusted, secure flight planning data our customers rely on directly into their operating systems, helping teams adapt quickly and efficiently to changing plans.”
Customers and partners can connect internal systems to ARINCDirect to automatically receive flight plan status, airspace information, trip performance and logbook data. The connection removes the need to re-enter or format information, reducing manual steps for dispatchers and sharing operational data across systems.
