Abu Dhabi Airports partnered with global IT provider SITA to upgrade the passenger experience with the latest technologies. The investment in SITA’s latest innovations is part of Abu Dhabi International Airport’s preparations for reaching a capacity of 45 million passengers by 2017.
The airport will introduce the technologies across three terminals in order to improve operational efficiency while providing a seamless passenger experience across all terminals. Key products include AirportConnect Open, enabling airlines to share check-in areas, kiosks and boarding areas, and BagManager, allowing bags to be tracked in real-time.
“Abu Dhabi International Airport continues to experience double-digit passenger growth and therefore we are investing in new airport facilities that will allow us to accommodate the forecast future increase in passengers. In order to achieve this we require a trusted technology partner, such as SITA, to provide one-stop, integrated IT solutions across the airport,” said Ahmad Al Haddabi, chief operations officer, Abu Dhabi Airports.
