A remote operation system for passenger boarding bridges for craft comprises display means to display the environment of the bridge. Image-capture means is designed to capture an area around the bridge. Interaction means allowing a user-controller to interact with the system is designed such that the user/controller can introduce and/or alter operating parameters for the system. Manual control means is accessible to the user/controller of the system. Indicator means indicates an operating situation of the bridge. These means linked by means of a control unit that controls movement elements of the bridge. The control unit incorporates a correction circuit for latency management through software, establishing latency values in the signals generated from the interaction means to the movement elements of the bridge, such that in the event that the control unit detects a value greater than the predetermined latency value, the control unit generates a signal that activates emergency stop means that are provided on movement elements of the bridge.
