Abstract

This study aims to develop an information system for facilities at Sultan Babullah Airport in Ternate to enhance the quality of information services for passengers and tourists, and to overcome the limitations of manual systems that have not been optimal in providing information on facilities, tourist destinations, and local culinary options. The method used is Rapid Application Development (RAD), with key phases including requirements planning, system design workshops with stakeholders, implementation using the WordPress CMS, and testing using the System Usability Scale (SUS). The developed system is a web-based information system that presents structured information about airport facilities, including flight schedules, facility details, tourist destinations, and local culinary recommendations. Usability testing involving 100 respondents yielded an average SUS score of 75.71, which falls within the “Good” category. This system has practical implications in improving the quality of information services and user experience at the airport. Additionally, the system supports digital promotion of regional tourism and serves as a model for implementing RAD in public information system development. This study presents novelty through the integration of tourism promotion features and airport facility information into a centralized web-based system. Moreover, the system implements real-time APIs to dynamically display arrival and departure schedules, a feature not commonly applied in similar airport information systems. The participatory and efficient RAD approach further enhances the strengths of the system’s development process.
