Scott Van Moppes, Myrtle Beach International Airport System Manager states, “We worked very diligently with AirIT to ensure that we were supporting the airport’s new facilities with technology that would encourage air service development, maximize efficiency, and provide the best experience for the traveling public. We found that the AirIT product suite was the most fully integrated solution available for an airport. In addition to providing airline shared use for ticket counters and gates, it will also allow us to schedule, track, and bill for all of our resources in one fully integrated platform.”
