Breecuda is designed to operate form small areas on top of existing high rises, railway station platforms or bus stations, not needing a runway because of the ability to take off and land vertically like a helicopter.

Arriving commuters are security and weight checked, and enter the waiting area; this will be a similar process to going through ticket checking machines, except passengers will be X-rayed and brief cases checked. Additional security measures may be taken depending upon the location or should a passenger be going to an airport with baggage. A percentage of seats may be pre-booked due to the limited amount of seats. Commuters would have to provide identification when buying the ticket, which would be checked automatically every flight.

Only the exact number of passengers allowable onto an arriving TC can enter the platform. This number is based upon that aircrafts current capacity and those disembarking at that stop, as all TC passengers must be seated. If a pre-booked commuter was late, a stand-by system would be in place for people otherwise having to wait for the next service avoiding overload of the aircraft. Departure is set by the security gate closing rather than aircraft movements.  

The terminals differ slightly from railway stations. When landing, TC is designed to slot into catchment slides to assist docking making a faster, safer landing procedure at a stage where fuel-flow is highest, with the engines at high power settings. Fuel probes connect to the jet once it has landed if endurance has overly taxed the fuel supply of the aircraft. In order to allow a VTOL jet to land the platform is raised to allow exhaust gases to be vented out underneath the platform without affecting the performance of the aircraft.  

Primarily for jet blast and noise aspects, passengers waiting to get aboard a TC flight are shielded by a door between the platform and the aircraft kept in place until the aircraft is safely down and at idle power settings. The top and bottom of the platform - a rubber seal - merges into the side of the Breecuda to provide as much noise insulation as possible, with an automatic system to ensure safe alignment of the doors to the platform. The door then opens simultaneously with the TC door, allowing passenger stop disembark. Once they are clear, passengers are allowed to board, similar to a train. It is hoped passengers will have a harness restraint similar to those found on roller-coasters, permitting easier entry and exit and safe restraint in flight: all passengers are restrained automatically. TC is designed with one large door that covers the entire side of the aircraft, enabling people to alight within a minute, and climb aboard very quickly. Both doors close and Breecuda climbs out. 

These stations can be built vertically so that many TC’s can dock in a very small area, reducing the cost of locating the system. Special operational procedures apply to such a design, for example 2 aircraft could not dock/launch one over another, as the aircraft underneath would be in the jet wash of the other.
