SITA, a global specialist in air-transport communications and IT solutions, said on Thursday that it is acquiring delair Air Traffic Systems GmbH, a private provider of Airport Collaborative Decision Making (A-CDM) systems for airports in Braunschweig, Germany.

“The addition of delair’s depth of airport A-CDM expertise will provide SITA’s customers with an even stronger comprehensive Airport Management solution resulting in greater control of their operations, simplifying complexity and improving profitability," Francesco Violante, CEO of SITA, said.
