The Client

Aena

Aena is the largest airport management company in the world, with over 275 million passengers passing through its 46 Spanish airports & 23 airports in London-Luton and America last year.

The Challenge

Providing passengers with the best experience at all stages of their journey

Aena wanted to improve navigation for passengers travelling within its airports. They wanted passengers to be able to visualize their entire journey and locate key points of interest such as restaurants, shops, toilets, or security controls, as well as the time required to reach the boarding gate.

Results
