# CTOT.app

> CTOT.app is the leading real-time ATFM slot management platform for European aviation. It delivers instant CTOT (Calculated Take-Off Time), TSAT, and regulation data from Eurocontrol Network Manager directly to pilots, dispatchers, OCC teams, and ground handlers — helping airlines and handling agents reduce delay costs, improve slot compliance, and streamline departure operations.

Why CTOT.app
- Airlines operating in European airspace face ATFM regulations that impose calculated take-off times on their flights. Missing a slot window (-5/+10 minutes) leads to flight suspensions, cascading delays, crew disruptions, passenger compensation costs, and missed connections. Yet most flight crews and ops teams still rely on outdated tools — phone calls to OCC, manual CHMI lookups, or delayed ACARS messages — to learn about their slot.

- CTOT.app solves this by pushing real-time slot information directly to the people who need it, the moment it changes. The result: faster decisions on the ground, fewer missed slots, and significant cost savings across the operation.

Operational benefits:

- **Reduce ATFM delay costs**: European flight delays cost airlines an average of €100 per minute (Eurocontrol/University of Westminster study). By giving crews and dispatchers instant visibility on slot changes, CTOT.app enables proactive decision-making — adjusting boarding, fueling, or pushback timing to protect the slot window.
- **Improve slot compliance**: Real-time push notifications when a CTOT is assigned or revised means crews and ground teams can react immediately rather than discovering a slot change after it's too late. This directly improves ATFM slot adherence rates.
- **Eliminate information lag**: Traditional slot communication flows through OCC → ACARS → cockpit, introducing delays of 5–15 minutes. CTOT.app delivers the information in seconds, directly to the pilot's phone or tablet.
- **Reduce OCC workload**: When pilots and ground handlers can self-serve their flight's CTOT, TSAT, and regulation details, fewer calls flow into the operations control center, freeing dispatchers for higher-value tasks.
- **Optimize ground handling turnarounds**: Handling agents use CTOT.app to see all departures from their station in real time, enabling better gate planning, crew allocation, and equipment positioning around actual slot times rather than scheduled times.
- **Understand regulation causes**: Each ATFM regulation comes with a decoded explanation and map visualization, helping crews and dispatchers understand why the delay is happening and whether a reroute or slot improvement request makes sense.

Key features:

- Real-time CTOT, TSAT, TOBT, and full CDM (Collaborative Decision Making) data for all flights in the Eurocontrol area
- Instant push notifications on CTOT assignment, revision, or cancellation
- Flight plan route with expected SID and STAR
- ATFM regulation cause decoded and displayed on an interactive map
- Delay codes, taxi times, and estimated landing times
- Multi-flight watchlist for monitoring an entire operation
- Airport METAR and TAF weather briefing
- Available on iOS, Android, and web dashboard — works on any EFB iPad or personal device

Who uses CTOT.app:

- **Airlines** — from small operators to large carriers. Over 70 operators trust CTOT.app to keep their crews informed.
- **Handling agents** — ground handlers at airports across Europe use the dashboard to monitor all departures in real time and plan turnarounds around actual slot times.
- **Airports** — operations teams tracking ATFM regulations affecting their traffic.

Getting started is fast:
 
- CTOT.app is designed to be deployed across an airline or handling agent in days, not months. There is no hardware to install, no infrastructure to provision, and no complex IT project required. The onboarding process is simple: the organization signs up, connects its Eurocontrol NM B2B agreement, and its users download the app or access the web dashboard — that's it. Pilots and dispatchers are operational within minutes. User management supports SCIM and Azure Entra ID for automated provisioning, so IT teams can integrate CTOT.app into their existing identity stack with zero manual account creation. For EFB providers, a lightweight webhook integration enables embedding CTOT data directly into existing cockpit tools without rebuilding any workflow.

Integration:

- CTOT.app connects to Eurocontrol's NM B2B (Network Manager Business-to-Business) web services — the single authoritative source for ATFM slot allocation in European airspace. This ensures the data is always accurate, real-time, and official. CTOT.app also supports webhook-based integration with EFB providers for seamless embedding into existing flight crew workflows.
