Turkey chooses SITA reconciliation technology

Tech Talk
Air transport IT specialist SITA is providing passenger processing and baggage reconciliation technology at Turkey's newest domestic terminal at Izmir Adnan Menderes airport.

SITA's industry-leading AirportConnect Open common-use offering will help the new terminal maximise its real estate, while providing airlines with an efficient and cost-effective solution for passenger processing. SITA will also continue to provide common-use and baggage reconciliation services for the airport's main terminal.

SITA's common-use solution, which supports both the Common Use Terminal Equipment (CUTE) and Common Use Passenger Processing Systems (CUPPS) standards, will enable the airport, its airlines and its handling agents to access their respective IT applications in real time on shared equipment. They will also be able to use any airport desk, gate or self-serve kiosk for passenger check-in, bag drop and boarding, for maximum flexibility and convenience.

The airport will further deploy SITA's BagManager, a real-time baggage management solution that helps reduce the number of mishandled bags, and SITA's MaestroDCS Local, which automates passenger check-in, boarding and other functions.
