BIXAero · Aviation Message Exchange
Secure aviation messaging, made simple.
One managed exchange where airlines, airports and ground handlers share baggage and flight messages with the partners they choose. Connect once, approve who receives your data, and see every message arrive.
- Fully managed service
- Security by design
- Baggage and flight data
- IATA standards built in
Why
Every flight runs on messages. Sharing them shouldn't be this hard.
Bag tags, loads and movements: millions of messages a day pass between airlines, airports and ground handlers. Yet most of them still travel over links that are slow to set up, costly to run and hard to control.
A project for every partner
Each new connection means another agreement, another format and months of IT work.
Costly networks
Legacy message networks and point-to-point links carry charges that grow with every partner.
Data out of sight
It is hard to know who receives your data, whether a message arrived, or to stop a feed quickly.

What
One secure exchange for your whole operation
BIXAero is a fully managed service that connects your organisation to its partners for baggage data and flight data. You connect once, and reach every partner through that one connection.
Connect once
Your systems connect to BIXAero in the way that suits them. Every new partner is then a few clicks, not a project.
Consent before data moves
Nothing flows until the owner of the data approves a request. You can narrow what is sent, and revoke it at any time.
Standards handled for you
Messages are checked against IATA standards and, where agreed, converted into the standard your partner uses.
See every message
Follow messages as they arrive, confirm every delivery, and be alerted the moment data stops flowing.
How
From sign-up to live data in three steps
- 1
We set you up
We register your organisation and start your own dedicated message service. Your business and technical contacts sign in with your company account.
- 2
Request and approve
Ask a partner for their baggage or flight data in a few clicks. They review your request and approve it, or explain why not.
- 3
Data flows
Once approved, messages flow automatically, checked and tracked to their destination, for as long as the agreement stands.
