It also serves as a vital hub connecting Japan to the rest of the world.

AirportLabs, a product-oriented company with wide expertise in the aviation industry, offers SaaS multi-cloud solutions tailored to streamline all airport operations and elevate the passenger experience. Narita Airport was established in 1978 and is located in the charming city of Narita, about 60 kilometers from Tokyo. This product implementation means that Narita International Airport will make the most of the Airport Community App’s valuable benefits.

The Airport Community App is a mobile platform designed for real-time communication and collaboration, with a focus on unlocking digital transformation and enhancing the efficiency of airports worldwide. Our app is dedicated to facilitating collaboration across all entities working in airports, enabling the instant exchange of important information related to airport operations and adjacent services. It enables the airport staff in real-time to share alerts, monitor flight statuses, and stay updated on airport operations and wait times. Moreover, it also offers the advantage of a non-limited number of users on the app. The Airport Community App empowers airport leadership to effectively manage resources and respond promptly to changing conditions, ultimately improving the experience for both airport staff and travelers.

The Airport Community App implementation at Narita International Airport provides an extensive set of core features, which define a starting point for upcoming advancements, including feature activation and collaborative feature exploration with the AirportLabs team. Some of the key benefits that the Airport Community App is offering are the following:

• Structured collaboration on pre-defined processes such as turn management, resource allocation, etc.
