Airlines Lose Millions to Hidden Fees

 

Airlines operate on tight margins and global complexity — with fragmented bank relationships, FX exposures, in-flight retail, and online booking flows. Small inefficiencies in payments and banking can have a major financial impact.

 

Bankhawk combines deep aviation expertise with AI-powered analytics to identify and recover value across your payment and treasury ecosystems. We deliver fast, actionable insights with minimal disruption — helping you simplify operations and unlock margin.

 

How We Help Aviation Clients

We help aviation organisations unlock financial value from their banking and card payment flows — quickly and without disruption.

We analyse your global bank accounts, contracts, FX margins, and PSP arrangements using AI to surface inefficiencies and commercial blind spots.
We compare your bank and payment partner performance across markets and peers, highlighting where you can improve pricing or terms.
We provide clear recommendations tied to measurable value — from restructuring fee arrangements to optimising 3DS and FX settlement processes.
