| Resumo: | As each year the number of passengers in the world grows, the airports get crowded and closer to their limit capacity. When they arrive at this point, they have to look for a solution to increase the capacity of the airport. The easiest solution is to expand the airport creating new terminals, but this solution is very expensive and sometimes is not feasible because the airport could have a limited space. Another solution is to optimise the current infrastructure in order to increase its capacity. Another possible solution that has arisen in the last years is the use of technology to increase the capacity of airports. The digital transformation brings a lot of possible solutions to the airport to improve the processing capacity of the processes that passengers have to go through when travelling by airplane. These solutions, apart from having the possibility of increasing the capacity of the airport, they could also be helpful to increase the passenger satisfaction and make the airport more competitive that nearby airports |
