Texperts & BAA
Airports are increasingly busy and complex locations, with multiple airlines and terminals to support, and increasing customer volumes to deal with cost-effectively. Airport Operators have a general responsibility for providing customers with accurate information about their journey - from security information, flight times, airport regulations and other journey specific information. This information need is currently supported through websites, and costly call centre operations and in-airport information points.
Recently, BAA faced a major headache: passenger volumes continued to surge and they were preparing to open a fifth terminal at Heathrow. In the midst of such a complex project, how would they ensure customers arrived at the correct terminal in a timely manner? How could they deliver live information to passengers in an efficient, interactive format that would strengthen their relationship with their customers? Their answer? A partnership with the award-winning SMS information service Texperts.
