Airfare Big Data: What’s in it for your airport? Network monitoring & route development new source of insight

The past two years have seen huge advances in electric propulsion.T However, battery weight is a major barrier to scaling up the technology to become commercially viable for anything larger than small general aviation aircraft. Is hydrogen then the breakthrough power source that will allow the industry to transition towards zero-net-carbon? Perhaps, but, again, developments are still in their infancy. Our expert panel will discuss whether hydrogen, electric, or hybrid-electric propulsion represents the best bet for a sustainable future for aviation.

NEXTT (New Experience Travel Technologies) reimagines on-ground and airport experiences; in particular the emerging technologies and digital transformation this involves. ACI and IATA’s jointly published NEXTT visions have attracted industry-wide agreement on the ‘what’.So, the subsequent questions become ‘why’ and ‘how’. In presenting updates on the NEXTT initiative, including the tangible benefits and what we believe it can deliver – we hope that you can help the industry answer the question of ‘when’.As part of the NEXTT initiative, a Preliminary Cost-Benefit Analysis (Preliminary CBA) was commissioned to help understand the scale, timeline and distribution of benefits and costs to the aviation industry and consumers. The stated goal of this Preliminary CBA was to provide initial quantification of the potential impact of NEXTT on future aviation infrastructure demand, and to understand the combined impact of these technologies.

This session will focus on providing an understanding of aviation operations and tourism, from the expectations of the passenger, to those of the regulators and operators. A discussion of the risks and how operators mitigate and eliminate risk, and what you can do to be a more informed user of worldwide aviation resources.

Earlier in March, Honeywell Aerospace launched a new data-driven analytics platform for business aviation customers know as Honeywell Forge. Now on-demand is our virtual press conference, hosted by Vice President and General Manager of Aerospace Services and Connectivity for the Honeywell Connected Enterprise, John Peterson.
