Passenger Terminal Expo
International Trade Fair and Conference on Passenger Terminal Technology and Management
25-27/March
Gran Via. 2th edition in Barcelona
Passenger Terminal Expo, a show specialised
in the design and equipment of passenger
terminal areas, includes a wide range of
activities and business opportunity and differing
scales. This is the only fair of its kind in the world
to bring together representatives from air lines
and airport operators. A travelling show, the fair
had taken place at Fira de Barcelona for the first
time in 2007.
At this edition, many companies used
the show as a platform to launch their latest
products, services and technologies related to
management, security and complex operations
at airports. A major showcase for the latest
trends, Passenger Terminal Expo highlighted the
industry's efforts to help overcome the crisis, to
build customer loyalty and achieve passenger
satisfaction, to deal with environmental issues
and all questions railed by low-cost airlines.
Coinciding with the Expo, the Terminal
Conference was also organised, attended
by over 1,300 participants from around the
world with a programme featuring more than
200 speakers. The themes at the conference
ranged from airport design to the planning and
development of facilities, intermodal transport –
which enables airports to be connected to cities
– and other systems of mobility, parking, border
control, commercial development, passenger
experience and comfort, self-service, check-in
and baggage processing.
The debates featured the presence of airport
experts and executives, airline managers,
consultants and engineering companies. More
than 80 countries sent representatives from their
respective aviation authorities.
