The Firepower You Need In The New Aviation Environment

Airline schedule cuts. Fleet retirements. New strategies. A whole new economic structure.

Deal with it - this is not just another cycle. It is a sea change in how air transportation operates. From this point forward, those who have a clear, futurist and accurate vision of the new aviation industry will prosper. Those that rely on the past - and who rely on past sources of data - won't survive.

It's time for a new aviation data resource. Not like traditional sources of aviation data, which just produce numbers, but one with the capability of analyzing the future. One that gives you the analytical firepower to plan for the new aviation environment.

That firepower is Airports:USAŽ DataMiner™.

Airports:USAŽ DataMiner™ is the new, reliable resource to analyze a wide range of important data. Traffic and fare data. Airline financial performance, aircraft costs, market shares, and more. DataMiner is not just another information source. It is a powerful tool that allows you to identify and isolate key trends in the industry. Shifts in capacity, market share, revenue shares, and much more. DataMiner offers an Airline Financial Package that allows immediate access and analysis of airline financials.

You also have access to immediately-current data covering airline schedule, capacity and fleet-application trends, through our affiliation with Innovata, LLC. You can monitor what airlines are planning at specific airports. How they are shifting fleets. What their next planning steps might be.

Airports:USAŽ DataMiner™ is the resource that allows aviation planners, financial institutions, airlines, and suppliers to understand the underlying trends that will shape the future. Which fleet types are likely to be retired, which may be in stronger demand. Which markets aren't meeting airline hurdles. Where certain carriers may be in competitive jeopardy. Financial institutions can better plan their own airline/aviation strategies. Airports can monitor air service weaknesses, both locally and at competing airports. Airlines can use Airports:USAŽ DataMiner™ as a prime early-warning and tactical planning tool.

In addition to data and insight, Airports:USAŽ DataMiner™ provides several tools that can be used to do what-if analyses of airline operations and fleet applications

Data Access Tailored To All Areas of Aviation

Airports:USAŽ DataMiner™ is designed to be customized to the specific subscriber. Financial institutions. Airlines. Airports. Manufacturers. Suppliers. All have varying data needs – and Airports:USAŽ provides them precisely and cost-effectively.

DataMiner™ Market & Traffic Data. Better. More Accurate.

Constantly updated with the latest quarterly filings, this information is available on-line after DataMiner™ software filters out to the maximum extent possible inherent inaccuracies that are natural to sample-derived data. You need accurate information, and that’s what Airports:USAŽ delivers.

Go On-Line And Start Analyzing Immediately.

Data includes O&D traffic and fare data going back to year 2000, including domestic and (optional)  international traffic. DataMiner subscribers can access immediate reports and begin customized analysis.

Fares, market shares, yields (net and nonstop), routing efficiency, and a host of other information is included in each report.  Users can identify hub flows – passengers, revenue, yields – that identify strength, weakness, and – in this environment – vulnerability of specific hubsite service, or a specific market. From this data, airports and planners can craft programs to enhance and strengthen service. Or identify coming weaknesses in service at competitive airports.

Unlike other sources, Airports:USAŽ DataMiner is not just regurgitated DOT, airline and government information. As aviation planning professionals ourselves, The Boyd Group understands that better, more incisive, and more accurate data is needed. We've put our nearly quarter century of experience in planning, research and consulting into developing Airports:USAŽ DataMiner™.

Sample A Few Reports

That experience is what makes DataMiner different. More comprehensive. More cost-effective. Click on the reports below to get an idea. Of course, there's not room to review all of the data and customizable reports available in DataMiner. But you'll get the idea.

How About Denver's Top 20 O&D?
Compare NY Thruway Markets: SYR, ROC & BUF
What's OMA Generating for Frontier Beyond  Denver?
What are jetBlue's Top FLL Markets?

And these barely scratch the surface of what DataMiner can provide. Like comprehensive airline financial reports, including those that are not publicly-traded

• Airlines and financial planners can isolate where service revenue production is weak or below cost-hurdle – for all airlines in the market.

• Users can access data by market, by airport, by airline, by time frame. The data reports are immediately sortable right on the screen, and can also be downloaded for further analysis.

• Want to know the fare trends in the top 25 markets from a given airport? Easy to do with DataMiner. Which airlines are capturing that traffic, and over which connecting hubs? And at what fares? It’s immediately available right on the screen. Which airport in a given region is capturing more traffic to specific destinations? There’s a report that will immediately compare up to four airports, right on the screen.

• DataMiner is an essential tool to identify traffic trends and airline service weaknesses. Compare through-yields generated from a specific airport through a specific hub. The relative vulnerability of one airline or another’s service at the airport can be easily identified.

• International data is also available. The Boyd Group will assist in obtaining the necessary DOT approvals.

You Cannot Afford To Be Without DataMiner™

You determine the level of data and financial analysis you neet. And it's cost effective - as low as $200 per month (with an annual subscription) for an airport's O&D, fare, traffic, market share, airline share, and T-100 data. Updated quarterly. And available back to year 2000. No other source offers this level of accuracy, analytical ability, and cost-effectiveness.

Airline & Airport O&D & Revenue Package

For example, the O&D data is available in three packages. Single Airport, which gives you the ability to analyze data for your specific airport. Add in the Schedules & Capacity option (covered below), and even add the airport’s International O&D option, and you’ve got far more information, more accurately, and more cost-effectively than those printed “quarterly” reports available from other sources. As a matter of fact, all this data and analysis firepower is yours at less than half the cost – and DataMiner™ lets you sort, analyze and download the data. Try that with a printed report..

Multi-Airport O&D Data, which provide four airports’ O&D analysis data, a great tool to keep abreast of competitive airports as well as your own. Finally, DataMiner™ also has Total US O&D & Market Data – every scheduled airport in the nation. For airlines and strategic planners, this option represents tremendous value – and the competitive edge.

Also note that all of the O&D packages include T-100 data for the entire nation. This provides basic load factor data, and enormous insight into airline performance across the US.

Airline Financial & Data Analysis Package

Airline data metrics are not always comparable between carriers. Often, such analyses render very misleading data. DataMiner™ provides a solution. In addition to Form-41 reports,  you can sort and compare data within each carrier’s individual context and operational structure. You can review fleet costs, expense areas, and compare shifts and trends within the industry and within each carrier.

A Critical Planning Tool. The DataMiner™ Airline Financial & Data Analysis Package provides numerous immediate reports on carrier performance. But it also gives you the ability to run analytics adjusted for the cost metrics you enter. Do analyses of future shifts in fuel cost at a given airline. Do it by aircraft type. Or adjusted for stage length. Compare ASM costs between fleet types, and between airline operators.

Planning and forecasting airline performance has never been easier. Of course, DataMiner™ also provides the ability to track historical airline cost trends as well.

Airline Schedules & Capacity Package

Being able to project future capacity and operations is a critical part of the analysis of the future. In cooperation with Innovata, LLC,Airports:USAŽ DataMiner™ offers comprehensive airline schedule and capacity data. It’s updated weekly, which gives a picture of the latest airline strategies – strategies that can and do change frequently. DataMiner allows you to analyze capacity shifts at hubs, at regional airports, and across the nation – by airline and even by aircraft type. The latter can give strong indications of a carrier’s fleet strategies going forward.

The Airline Schedules & Capacity Package is also tailored to the subscriber’s specific needs, with four suggested package options. The first is schedules and capacity for a single airport – perfect for a small airport that's only interested in data that affects it directly. The second is a four-airport package, which is great for subscribers who want to keep watch on several airports in a region. The third is the complete domestic schedule, comprising all US airports. The fourth is complete domestic and international schedules

Pricing & Availability

All components of DataMiner™ can be subscribed to individually or in whatever combinations you need. Below are suggestions, and indications of just how cost-effective the power of DataMiner really is.

Basic Package. If you’re subscribing to one of those printed “quarterly” traffic data subscriptions, cancel it as soon as possible. DataMiner™ is the better alternative. It provides more current data, more accurate data, and it’s available and sortable on-line, too. Those expensive, and often inaccurate, “quarterly” printed subscriptions don’t give you Schedule & Capacity Data, updated weekly. This you can include in your subscription and still be spending thousands less.

Also unlike some of those “quarterly” publications, DataMiner™ understands the airline industry. For example, it knows that an airport having flights operated by Pinnacle and Mesaba is not served by “two” airlines, as some of those “quarterly” services mis-report. The traffic is Northwest, one system. And, you’ll note, that even when adding in the optional international traffic option (requires approval from DOT), DataMiner is still thousands of dollars less than these inaccurate printed quarterlies.

Basic Advanced Package. This is the Basic Package, but includes four airports. Four airports’ O&D. Four airport’s Schedule & Capacity Data. Four airports’ international O&D (DOT approval required).

This is a great option for airports or aviation authorities that want to keep an eye on regional airport competitors, or on airports in a metro basin. And, again, this data – for four airports – is still substantially less expensive than many of those printed “quarterly” subscriptions.

Of course, this is just a package suggestion. Airports:USAŽ DataMiner™ can be tailored to the subscriber’s specific needs.

Airline & Financial Institution Package. For air carriers and financial institutions that are involved extensive analysis of the airline space, Airports:USAŽ DataMiner™ is the new planning tool that can assist in identifying strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities at specific airlines and within the industry itself.  

As outlined, the suggested package includes O&D traffic and fare data for every US airport, full domestic schedule & capacity access, and full airline financial & analytical reports. Note that these packages are only suggestions. Each component is available as a stand-alone.

Prices are subject to change.

Easy To Use, Too. You want data and reports, and you want them now. You don't want to wallow through arcane entry forms, and then only get confused, pedantic information that you then have to interpret.

That's what sets Airports:USAŽ DataMiner™ apart from other sources. It was designed by former airline route and market planners, with a quick and easily-understood interface. In DataMiner, you just click the box, fill in the required data, and reports such as those above appear in seconds. And you can sort the data by almost any column on the report, right on the screen, as well as download it to a spreadsheet. No other data source, on-line or static, offers you all this.

The main menu gives you dozens of easily customizable reports. In addition, the EZ-DataMiner report menu interface is geared to click and go for the data that's most often needed:
