Summary:
- VINCI Airports enhances security at Budapest with next generation lanes designed to streamline passenger flow, reduce waiting times and improve comfort.
- Advanced screening technology boosts efficiency and capacity, cutting processing times to under one minute and optimising tray handling.
- Improved working environment for security agents through automation, ergonomic design and enhanced training, supported by VINCI’s global operational model.
The security flow approach of VINCI Airports – a Corporate Partner of the FTE Digital, Innovation & Startup Hub – has recently been embodied by state-of-the-art equipment combining innovation, operational excellence, and the sustainable transformation of airport infrastructure. At Budapest Airport, VINCI Airports’ operations teams are deploying a new generation of security lanes in a fully redesigned space, delivering tangible improvements, such as:
- A smoother passenger journey: reduced waiting times and dedicated preparation areas to improve flow and comfort.
- Improved efficiency and capacity: advanced technologies optimise tray processing, facilitating higher throughput and accelerating passenger procedures with processing times reduced to under one minute.
- Improved working conditions for security agents: increased automation, reduced manual handling, better-designed workspaces, and advanced training programmes – already delivering very positive feedback.
This security flagship project led by VINCI Airports at Budapest Airport is the outcome of a teamwork done with colleagues from Edinburgh and London Gatwick to design new standards and implement the new area, demonstrating the strength of VINCI’s global model.
