Frank Pfleiderer, managing director of Airsphere, a partner on the biometric solution, said, “#AirSphere and Berlin #Brandenburg Airport have been working together successfully for many years in the automation of passenger handling processes. We are delighted to have #BER as the first customer for our new #SmartDepart app and offer passengers at BER a new travel experience.

Flying from New York or LA this holiday season? Well, it just got a little bit easier! We have officially expanded Digital ID, Delta Air Lines time-saving, industry-first technology,to New York-JFK, LGA, and LAX. In January, we’ll add it to ATL’s international terminal. https://lnkd.in/dYkanCXENavigating the airport can be stressful – especially when you’re digging around looking for your wallet or phone to pull out with a line of people behind you. We’ve all been there. With Delta Digital ID, you can leave your ID and boarding pass in your wallet when you’re checking a bag or going through security. It’s a completely voluntary experience — but once you’ve opted in via your SkyMiles profile, you’ll simply navigate to the appropriate line at the airport (look for the green “Digital ID” signage), look into the camera, and move through using your digital ID, powered by facial matching technology. (Importantly, Delta does not store or save any customer biometric info.)Delta Digital ID is just one more way we’re innovating the airport experience, investing in technology to make the journey more seamless and intuitive. Already, it’s been a hit with our customers in DTW and ATL; we’re thrilled to bring this technology to more customers in more hubs. You’re eligible for Digital ID if you: ✔ Are a SkyMiles member✔ Have TSA PreCheck ✔ Store your passport info in your Delta profile✔ Use the Fly Delta app Will you try Digital ID on your next trip? Where would you like to see it next? Drop me a note in the comments!

We read thousands of messages every month from passengers embracing real-time baggage tracking options, so they never lose sight of their belongings. But while passengers get live updates on their baggage journey, airlines are missing out on the action.The results? Passengers have access to accurate live information, but airlines are stuck in a "black box" with limited baggage insights. Of course, this leads to all kinds of miscommunication hiccups, and frustrations between airlines and passengers.By introducing the very first airline-approved Bluetooth tracker TravelTag, airlines can now bridge this information gap. Be in sync with your passengers by accessing real-time tracking information through a user-friendly dashboard. - Sustainable, reusable tags? ✅ - Automated messaging with baggage updates? ✅ - Instant rerouting information? ✅Explore the opportunities for your company - head to our landing page to get your free demo! https://bob.io/#BaggageHandling #DigitalTransformation #ChangeManagement

In B2B Marketing, it can be difficult to catch attention for innovative ideas, as it is a thin line between "standing out" and "annoying your audience". Originality, creativity, good design, and sharp copy can make a difference. We know we will not get an immediate ROI from a single image or campaign. (It can take up to more than 30 touchpoints to convert a prospect!)But we are aiming at high-quality inbound leads who are ready to take their baggage tracking solutions to a new level and are open to brainstorming about innovation in aviation.That's why, for this campaign, we focused on the - Image: exaggeration showing the status quo in baggage tracking innovation- Copy: make readers think about the state of current baggage tracking: what it is versus what it could be- Logo: trickle interest for aviation leaders to learn about alternatives that could actually boost their revenue and the passenger experience. (Bob Bluetooth Baggage Tracking)The campaign will be running for a bit longer as the idea can easily be adapted to other ancient concepts. Keep an eye out!👀#B2BMarketing #DigitalMarketing #AviationInnovation

What’s the one thing you can’t travel without?The latest SITA Baggage IT Insights report brings very good news: in 2023 the baggage mishandling rate has decreased from 7.6 to 6.9 per 1,000 bags and this while #passenger traffic soared to 5.2 billion—exceeding 2019 levels for the first time in five years. This improvement is largely driven by the adoption of smart technologies, including #AI, #biometrics, and touchless #baggage tagging via kiosks and mobile devices. With full automation and advanced tracking systems, baggage is routed in the right direction, and even when issues appear, they’re resolved quickly: mishandled bags are automatically detected and put on the next possible flight, reducing the disruption for passengers.Moreover, #travelers are happy to be in control with self-service and tech like biometrics and touchless systems, gaining real-time visibility of their bags across the journey.With traffic set to double by 2040, airports and airlines continue to invest in automation and digitalization. In the meanwhile, we can relax and pack something more for our summer holidays!!Click below to read more: https://lnkd.in/eATuMT5Q#TravelTech #DigitalTransformation #PassengerExperience #Aviation #Automation
