In May 2007 Brussels Slot Coordination has launched the powerful Internet-based Online Coordination System (OCS) which provides registered aviation customers with a comprehensive range of tools to query, sort, view and download slot and schedule information in a wide variety of formats. Customers can also request new slots or make changes to their existing slot portfolio by editing records of their schedules directly in the database. All these transactions are designed to be automatically validated for feasibility. Unlike the traditional communication between coordinators and airlines, OCS is a real-time system that is designed to respond instantly to requests with the intention of ensuring the customers are always provided with the latest information and a responsive service (including out-of-office-hours). Details of available airport capacity (also for not registered users) can be requested for any of the airports available via OCS. Presently more then 40 airports in UK, Ireland, Scandinavia, Finland, Portugal, Switzerland, Belgium and Austria are accessible for Online Coordination services and more than 100 airlines have subscribed to OCS.
