Whether through a lightweight laptop, a tablet or a mobile phone, they are sure to have the ability to interact with all the information they can access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">For its part, the airport operator's mission is to ensure that all flight operations comply with established plans while facilitating travellers' arrival at their destination without incident and in the best conditions for each individual case. However, in addition to this, in their relationship with passengers, their tasks include <strong>time and information management<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">It turns out that <strong>time is one of the basic tools of the airport business<\/strong>, and I am not referring, on this occasion, to the time management carried out by airlines to reduce their operating costs. I am referring to every minute that a passenger spends in the terminal, which represents an opportunity for consumption (shopping, catering, services) as well as an indirect expense in terms of space occupancy (cleaning, customer service, maintenance, security). The constant movement of people during their waiting time is usually seen by airport managers as a profit and loss account, where minutes are inevitably associated with income and expenditure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">But habits have changed radically. People's time management has evolved significantly in recent years. The prevailing trend today is <strong>individualisation<\/strong> and <strong>personalisation<\/strong> in almost every aspect of life. It turns out that the mobile phone has become people's <strong>centre of information and entertainment<\/strong> and, therefore, a new protagonist for waiting times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Por otro lado, una adecuada <strong>administraci\u00f3n de la informaci\u00f3n<\/strong> que llega hasta el pasajero es b\u00e1sica para su <strong>gesti\u00f3n emocional<\/strong>. Las decisiones que las personas toman en un momento dado tienen un componente emocional importante que las puede inducir a actuar de formas muy diferentes ante un mismo acontecimiento. Y tanto a la hora de mover grandes vol\u00famenes de personas, como a la de gestionar aspectos tan extremos como los planes de emergencia o la comercializaci\u00f3n de las diferentes \u00e1reas aeroportuarias, esto es algo que cobra especial relevancia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Are airports taking advantage of this simple insight to improve their relationship with the people who use their facilities on a daily basis? Are they aware of the enormous possibilities that current technologies offer for providing personalised and, above all, useful information?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">It is relatively common to see all kinds of applications and systems being implemented to deliver information to airport users. However, most projects suffer from being based on what the airport thinks is right (the traditional approach?) rather than assessing what <strong>21st-century passengers<\/strong> actually want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Con un parque de terminales m\u00f3viles que disponen de conectividad local de todo tipo (<em>bluetooth<\/em> and <em>wifi<\/em> esencialmente) se podr\u00edan configurar un buen n\u00famero de iniciativas tendentes a dotar al pasajero de un espacio individual de ocio e informaci\u00f3n aeroportuaria de su inter\u00e9s con la posibilidad de personalizar, en cada caso, los contenidos. Y, adem\u00e1s, de forma geolocalizada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">No se trata de crear&nbsp;<em>apps<\/em>, condicionadas por un sistema operativo u otro, sino de ofrecer contenidos, pues cada dispositivo dispone, a buen seguro, de herramientas capacitadas para acceder a todos ellos de una forma u otra.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Un pasajero en tiempo de espera, lo que desea es pasar el rato de la mejor forma posible hasta que salga su vuelo. Desea poder acceder desde su propio terminal a un men\u00fa amplio de ocio (m\u00fasica, pel\u00edculas, juegos, noticias, etc.), que se le avise personalizadamente cuando llegue el momento de embarcar, poder hacer una reserva en alg\u00fan establecimiento de la terminal o disponer del men\u00fa de los restaurantes del aeropuerto. Insisto: <strong>hablamos de contenidos, no de herramientas<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">The secret to success in the relationship between travellers and airport managers lies in the ability to <strong>create personalised emotional environments<\/strong> in airports that help passengers feel in their own <strong>comfort zone<\/strong>. A few years ago, this might have seemed like a pipe dream, but today, with access to all kinds of technology at a reasonable cost, it is something that any manager can achieve. All it takes is imagination and a desire to ensure that everyone who passes through your airport has a positive experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">There is a second factor that should not be overlooked, which is the resulting ease with which passengers can be provided with a whole series of <strong>rules, instructions or advice enabling them to know how to act in the event of any incident<\/strong>. And all this in real time. In line with the arguments put forward above, a passenger who is better informed and more familiar with the specific circumstances of the airport where they are located will also feel safer and much closer to their comfort zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let us never forget that a satisfied passenger is a goal achieved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\"><em>Key topics in this post: <a href=\"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/airports\/airport-operations\/\" target=\"_self\">operations<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/airports\/it-airport-consultancy-and-software-solutions\/\">technology\"<\/a> at airports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A nadie se le escapa que, a d\u00eda de hoy, la pr\u00e1ctica totalidad de los pasajeros que circulan por un aeropuerto est\u00e1n \u201cconectados\u201d&#8230; [+]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":13846,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[42,10,36,37,38,46,45,47,35,30,39],"class_list":["post-2462","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","tag-aerolineas","tag-aeropuertos","tag-confort","tag-futuro","tag-lineas-aereas","tag-operation-aeropuertos","tag-pasajero","tag-personalizado","tag-planificacion-y-diseno-aeropuertos","tag-tecnologia","tag-terminales"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2462","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2462"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2462\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13889,"href":"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2462\/revisions\/13889"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2462"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2462"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aertecsolutions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2462"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
