Rehumanizing the Airport and Aviation Sector Experience

Presentation by Paul Clark, Vice President InterVISTAS Consulting Inc - Platinum sponsor of GTS 2021, and Eefje Roodvoets, Customer Experience Lead, NACO

This session will discuss two inter-related and necessary approaches to advancing a holistic and integrated solution that begins to rehumanize the airport and aviation sector experience. First, on a travel day, our sector’s customer relationship and reputation will be dependent on all partners providing consistent and aligned services with a shared customer on their complete end to end passenger journey. Second, on a larger societal scale, our customer relationship and reputation - and indeed our industry viability - will be dependent on demonstrating to future passengers a renewed and rehumanized approach and set of partnered solutions on: environmental sustainability and decarbonization; equity, diversity, inclusion; and other urgent issues of our times.

11:30-12:30

New strategic, commercial and operational implications of changes in airport customer behaviour

Using the 2021 GTS as a reference, among other learnings, the following questions will be addressed to examine business implications of changing air passenger behaviour: Why it is increasingly critical for airport management groups to understand changes in passenger behaviour? How should airports respond to the emergence of the new traveller segments and opportunities identified in the Survey?

How to reduce anxiety and stress through the airport experience

As travel recovery outpaces airport capacity, there are new stressors within the travel system. The airport experience is different from pre-pandemic and travellers are experiencing higher degrees of stress and anxiety as they navigate a new travel journey. Airports have adapted by leaning on best practices and looking for inspiration inside and outside of the industry.
