The airport is one of the busiest and most complex systems in our modern society. It is an assemblage of people, processes, technology, government agencies, private companies, retail space, artefacts, and information.
Global passenger traffic is expected to double by 2037. Accommodating this rapid growth in the context of all the airport’s complexities, while at the same time upholding stellar standards of service quality for clients, is one of the major challenges facing the air transport industry.
As the airport industry continues to evolve with increasing national and international regulations, it faces a unique set of challenges that will test the ingenuity and resilience of the sector. From the tough economic climate to growing overheads required to meet ever-changing security standards to the pressure to significantly reduce their carbon footprints, airports are turning to advanced technology to help them meet—and surpass—their goals.
As hubs of movement for massive quantities of passengers and cargo, airports face security issues that are both specific and demanding. Threats can come from within many processes that support the airport, including passengers, personnel, catering, maintenance, ticketing, baggage handling, air traffic control, retail, parking, and more.
Ensuring that only authorized personnel or passengers have access to restricted areas is vital. Electronic security entrance control helps achieve this goal. TANSA turnstiles and gates are specifically designed to meet the high-level security needs of an airport environment, and are flexible enough to grow and adapt according to these needs.
Passenger experience is at the core of the airport industry. Airports know that client satisfaction is closely linked to increased revenue, growth in traffic, strong reputation. Providing clients with a high-quality passenger experience leads to satisfaction, satisfaction creates loyalty, and loyalty leads to better business performance, which contributes to high-quality passenger experiences…
