YYC Calgary International Airport has opened its new, $1.6 billion international terminal featuring Rockwell Collins' self-service technology to streamline passenger check-in for international travelers, according to a press release. The new facility doubles the size of the existing airport terminal.
"Over the last decade, YYC has seen a consistent increase in passenger volumes and over that period an increased need and desire for self-service technologies to process passengers," said Bernie Humphries, vice president, operations for the Calgary Airport Authority. "When it came to ensuring a seamless passenger experience in our new international terminal, we wanted to ensure positive and streamlined processes for our guests. This meant looking at our existing common use passenger process solution and finding ways to enhance it in our new facility, which has a strong emphasis on self-service."
