Demand-side route intelligence for airline network planning.
OAG sells you what already flies. We tell you what travellers are searching for right now — 30 to 120 days ahead of any booking signal. Real-time, search-intent-driven, no GDS access required.
Why supply-side data is the wrong religion.
OAG sells schedules. Sabre, Amadeus and Travelport sell GDS bookings. Every signal you buy today is lagging — the booking happened 30 to 120 days after demand was created.
Nobody owns demand-side telemetry well. Network planners use mobile-location data, Google Trends, and intuition for new routes — because GDS data only shows demand for routes that already exist.
AirConnect captures search intent on 8,000+ route, flight and airport pages globally. Combined with Bing API + LLM-citation tracking, this is the only forward-looking demand index that doesn't require GDS access.
The product line.
Forward Demand Pulse
Top routes by search-intent growth, week-over-week. Updated daily. The leading indicator that beats GDS bookings by 30–120 days.
Underserved Routes Index
High search demand + no nonstop service. The atlas of route-launch opportunities, ranked by demand magnitude and growth.
Catchment & Hub Share
For each city pair, which airline + hub captures the most search-intent share. The first dataset of its kind in commercial aviation.
Seasonality Fingerprints
Weekly demand heatmaps per route with statistical confidence intervals. Built from 24+ months of search-intent telemetry.
Pricing — designed to attack OAG's $200k contracts from below.
Cheapest tier is under 2% of OAG enterprise pricing. Biggest tier is 5× cheaper than OAG. Buy by the month, no procurement.

Who buys it.
Aviation hedge funds + equity research
Any directional signal trades fast. Low procurement friction. We sell here first.
Route launch consultants (Sabre, InterVistas, ASM, MIDT)
Feed our forward demand data into their existing decks for airlines.
Regional carriers + LCCs
They cannot afford OAG's $200k. Will pay $5–10k/mo for the 80/20.
Airport route development teams
Selling routes to airlines. Need demand evidence in their pitch decks.
Tourism boards
Country-level marketing organisations. Demand-by-source-market data justifies inbound campaigns.
Cargo operators
Adjacent buyer. Cargo route planning is even less mature than passenger.
