Hong Kong-based Metrojet has teamed up with Portside, a cloud-based data platform provider headquartered in San Francisco, California, to offer Metrojet's aircraft management clients a single portal to review integrated information, including financial, maintenance, crew and operational status of the aircraft.

The digital platform combines trip planning, crew and staff scheduling, expense management, and financial and accounting data for clients' convenience. All data is derived from Metrojet's secure internal systems to ensure proper data security is in place. Metrojet aims to implement Portside on selected management aircraft in Q3 2021.

“At Metrojet, we are committed to providing clients with relevant real time data at their fingertips,” says flight ops director Kobus Swart. “Portside is a dynamic and expansive platform that meets all our client requirements. This new system will not only enhance client visibility of the aircraft operation, but will also highlight statistics, which can be used as a business tool to reduce costs and improve efficiency.”

Portside CEO Alek Vernitsky adds: “We are delighted to partner with the Metrojet team to deploy the Portside data platform and assist in delivering world class technology to aircraft owners across Asia.”
