Brussels Airport Eases Travelers Minds with Accurate Wait Times
Brussels Airport joins a host of leading international airports, who are displaying estimated wait times to ease travellers minds.
Brussels Airport, one of the busiest airports in Europe with more than 23 million travellers per year, has joined an ever-growing club of international airports around the world, who use the Veovo Passenger Predictability solution to optimise staffing resources and provide wait time information, on screens throughout the airport and on their mobile app. to manage expectations.
Operationally, the airport uses, among other things, the data to monitor security line density, which allows management to respond promptly and effectively to irregular operations and disruptions, by opening additional lines, to ultimately reduce processing times.
“Veovo enables Brussels Airport to monitor the quality of the terminal processes and to improve resource planning. The collected wait time data and throughput is also used to perform consistent reporting to internal and external stakeholders,” says Ward Decaluwé, Director of Operations at Brussels Airport.
The airport has the ambition to use the solution to monitor the entire traveller process through the airport.
“Veovo’s live re-forecasting capabilities provide us with an early heads-up on changes to passenger presentation profiles. This allows us to easily adapt plans and rosters to reflect the current situation, improving journeys and keeping costs down.”
“Veovo helps us manage performance with data-driven certainty. With real-time visibility of passenger flow, we can keep pinch-point processing quick, but also make holistic decisions on how to create more efficient and more meaningful customer experiences throughout the airport.”
“Veovo has allowed us to gain a good understanding of the security check-point dynamics, and most importantly, our customers benefit directly by getting a better service.”
“We are able to keep our passenger fully informed 24/7 about what to expect at security. Our aim is to make the experience as smooth as possible – Veovo helps us do that.”
“With Veovo, we can proactively manage passenger flow, and respond promptly and efficiently to irregular operations and disruptions.”
“Vital to our Master Plan programme is a deep understanding of airport capacity, bottlenecks and constraints, and Veovo is key to this.”
“Veovo has allowed us, together with our airport partners and stakeholders, to better manage operations, as well as improve the passenger experience by communicating expected wait times to passengers at processing points.”
“Veovo has dramatically improved our real-time operational decision-making, post-performance analysis, and capacity planning data analysis capabilities. But, perhaps, more importantly, it has helped us give our passengers a more positive airport experience.”
“Veovo gives us a clear picture of passenger movements, allowing us to provide the best customer service and proactively manage service levels before any issues arise.”
“Veovo enables us to monitor the quality of the terminal processes to improve resource planning, and to perform consistent reporting to internal and external stakeholders.”
