Bangalore International Airport Limited (BIAL) has partnered with Xovis to launch Queue Management System at Kempegowda International Airport, Bengaluru (KIAB / BLR) in India.
The technology will reduce wait times and enhance operational efficiency and the flow of passengers.
In addition, the passenger flow management system Xovis PTS will display live wait times on the screens at processing points to enhance the user experience.
