According to forecasts by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), passenger numbers will double by 2037. For airport infrastructures, four challenges must be simultaneously addressed daily:
- Enhance the passenger experience,
- Consistently maintain a high level of safety and security,
- Commit to environmental transition,
- Remain competitive
