For trouble-free departures
and arrivals
Whatever the weather has in store, OpenRunway can help
you make clear weather-sensitive decisions so that your runways
stay open and your flights run to schedule.
Planning ahead
OpenRunway is a new service from the Met Office which is a
one-stop shop providing all your critical weather information.
It alerts you to current and forthcoming weather conditions
at your airport, up to five days ahead, so you can plan in
advance to avoid delays.
 Operational
efficiency
OpenRunway has been designed to help you plan to mitigate the
effects of the weather on airport staff and resources — minimising
unnecessary operational downtime and costs. It provides information
on changing weather conditions so you can plan for any
disruptions impacting on ground operations, ensuring the safety
of aircraft and passengers.
 Confident decision-making
With our expertise and accurate information you can be confident
in the operational decisions you make saving both costs and delays.
