Keflavik Airport Case Study: Passenger Flow and Forecasting
The current crisis has shown us that operational planning based on last year’s approach won’t help us flex to today’s challenges – or those of tomorrow.
Hear how Keflavik Airport uses passenger flow insight and live forecasting to predict and plan for passenger behaviour by flight, and get an early heads-up of likely deviations from the plan in the hours ahead. The result: improved operational performance, capacity optimisation and smoother customer journeys.
