Flight Information Display Systems (FIDS)
Flight Information Display Systems (FIDS) are available at numerous Continental airport facilities. Gate agents also provide verbal flight information including boarding announcements and any flight irregularity. We ask any customer with a sensory disability to relay any special needs directly to our gate agents. They will ensure proper communication is established and maintained.
