Aéroports de Paris has installed beacons in Hall 2 of Orly West to promote networking opportunities between passengers who are travelling on business.
KLM is the latest carrier to embrace beacons, and is using the technology to help passengers find their departure gate at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol.
Miami International Airport has become the first airport in the world to have a complete and open deployment of beacons, covering the terminals, skytrain and car parks.
San Francisco International Airport has unveiled a prototype of an app that can help visually impaired passengers navigate through the airport terminal.
Airports and airlines are turning to iBeacons, passenger tracking solutions, interactive screens and wearable technology to improve the passenger experience.
Visitors to Turkish Airlines’ Lounge Istanbul will be able to access the digital Sky Library on their own devices following the installation of iBeacons.
Japan Airlines will use smartwatches and iBeacons to track gate agents at Tokyo Haneda Airport’s Terminal 1 and assign tasks based on their exact location.
FTE spoke to James Millett, Head of Digital at easyJet, about the iBeacon trial, and how the LCC plans to use the technology to simplify the travel experience.
