AIRCRAFT DISPATCH:
Flight Ops Plus Travel What is an aircraft dispatcher? We call them “dispatchers” for short, although Delta Air Lines calls them “flight superintendents!” Every United States-based airline operating under 14 CFR Part 121 employs aircraft dispatchers. These dispatchers prepare dispatch releases for every flight, monitor and communicate with each flight assigned to their “desk,” provide updates to weather and traffic delays, and ensure safety for flight operations.
