The airport departure board, sized for your lobby
Flight Information Display System
A flight information display system (FIDS) that puts live departures, arrivals, gates and delays on any screen in your hotel — so guests check their flight at a glance and your front desk stops repeating itself. No hardware, no IT project, live in minutes.
Printed flight schedules can’t keep up
Reception becomes a flight-info desk
Without a display, every guest checks their departure with your staff — over and over, all morning.
Yesterday’s printout is already wrong
Gates and times shift by the hour; paper and static boards never catch up.
A missed flight becomes your problem
When a guest leaves late because no one flagged a delay, the complaint lands at your hotel.
Custom display software is overkill
Building a flight information display system in-house means developers, servers and maintenance you don’t want.
One flight information display system, every screen
LobbyFlight is a hosted flight information display system that turns any screen into a live airport board for your hotel. Guests see accurate departures and arrivals on their own — you change nothing about your day.
- Live departures and arrivals for 13,000+ airports, kept current automatically
- Runs on any smart TV, tablet or commercial display you already own
- Your branding — logo, colours and your guests’ languages
- Keeps showing the last board if the connection briefly drops
- Set up in a browser in minutes — no servers, no install
What a flight information display system actually is
A flight information display system (FIDS) is the live arrivals-and-departures board you see at every airport. LobbyFlight brings that same board into your hotel as a hosted service — no airport-grade hardware, just a link on a screen that keeps itself current.
Live airport data
The FIDS pulls real-time departures and arrivals — gate, terminal and delays — from the same feeds airlines and airports use, for 13,000+ airports.
Tuned to your hotel
Choose the airports your guests use and the system shows only the relevant flights, in your guests’ languages.
On any screen
A hotel flight information display system shouldn’t need a server room — open one link on a TV or tablet and it runs 24/7.

What the system does
Real-time airport data

The display scales cleanly from a lobby video wall down to a tablet at reception.
Your brand, not ours
White-label the flight information display with your logo, colours and your own domain.
Where the display earns its keep
Lobby & reception
The first answer arriving and departing guests see — no one has to ask.
Lounge & breakfast
Guests track their flight over coffee and leave at the right moment.
Concierge desk
Staff answer “when should I go?” with a glance at the board.
Shuttle area
Guests waiting for the airport shuttle plan around live arrivals.
Understanding flight information display systems
A flight information display system — FIDS for short — is the live board of departures and arrivals you see at every airport. For a hotel the value is the same, but the setup is very different: instead of the airport-grade hardware and dedicated network a terminal runs, a hotel flight information display system is a hosted service that runs in a browser on a screen you already own.
How the flight data reaches the screen
The system connects to global aviation data providers that aggregate schedules, gate assignments, terminal changes and delays straight from airlines and airports. That data is refreshed continuously in the cloud, and your display simply loads it over the internet — so the board on your lobby wall reflects what the airport publishes, without you running any infrastructure.
What a hotel flight information display system shows
A good hotel FIDS shows the essentials at a glance: airline and flight number, scheduled and estimated times, gate and terminal, and a clear status — on time, delayed, boarding or cancelled. Codeshare flights are grouped so a single row isn’t repeated, and the board can rotate between departures and arrivals or focus on whichever your guests need most.
Hotel FIDS vs. airport FIDS
Airport FIDS is built for scale: proprietary hardware, dedicated media players and an IT team to run it. A hotel needs none of that. A hosted flight information display system delivers the same live accuracy through a browser link, so a single screen — or twenty — stays current with no servers, no installers and no maintenance contract.
Choosing a flight information display system
When you evaluate a flight information display system for a hotel, weigh four things: data accuracy and airport coverage, how closely it matches your brand, whether it keeps working if the connection drops, and how many screens one subscription covers. LobbyFlight is built around all four — 13,000+ airports, full white-label branding, an offline fallback, and unlimited screens on higher plans.
White-glove flight tracking for guests in transit
Each guest gets a branded companion page in their language. Live flight status, when to leave, your shuttle or taxi partner — all in one mobile tap. Premium plans include 50 trips/month for free.
- A personal companion page for each guest, in their language
- Smart Departure Coach uses live traffic to recommend a leave time
- Configurable transport flow: hotel shuttle, partner taxi, or direct call

Straight from the enterprise aviation feeds that airlines and airports run on — covering 13,000+ airports with gate, terminal and delay data, refreshed throughout the day.

Yes — logo, colours and, on higher plans, a custom domain, so the display looks like part of your hotel.
It does — the system cycles through your guests’ languages so international travellers read the board without a second thought.
The system keeps showing the last flight board instead of an error and re-syncs automatically when the connection returns.
No integration is required — it runs standalone. API access is available on higher plans for groups that want it.
Very — the system tracks 13,000+ airports in real time against a 99.9% uptime target and refreshes on its own all day.
A hotel flight information display system starts at €69/month with LobbyFlight — a fraction of airport-grade FIDS hardware, with no setup fee and no contract. Higher plans add more airports, screens and branding options.
Yes — open the same link on as many screens as you like (lobby, lounge, shuttle area). Higher plans cover unlimited displays under one subscription, and each screen can show a different view.
