With an overarching aim to diversify away from oil and build a digitally-led, knowledge-based economy, the Middle-East region’s young and tech-savvy population is overwhelmingly optimistic about the opportunities the significant investments and developments will bring for them in the near future. That said, building a state-of-the-art aviation industry is an essential step to a diversified economy’s success. Over the years, airports in the GCC, especially the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, have grown in size to cater for ballooning passenger and freighter volumes, with rapid digitalization becoming central to improving operations. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) stated that the Middle-East region’s aviation market is expected to see an extra 258 million passengers annually on routes to, from and within the region by 2035. The governments of these countries have identified and made crucial investments in emerging airport technologies that will be key in managing the rapid growth and meeting changing passenger expectations. In addition, implementing cutting-edge digital solutions will also enable airports and airlines to introduce new passenger processing procedures, improving customer experience and reducing operational costs.
