New IT solutions to prepare Clark International Airport for future growth

Clark International Airport (CRK) in the Philippines has selected a suite of Collins Aerospace ARINC airport solutions to help provide a seamless passenger experience for the increased number of travellers expected to pass through the airport following its 2021 expansion.

The gateway has selected ARINC’s passenger processing and airport operation solutions to move passenger flow through its new Terminal Two while helping to keep airport data optimised and secure.

“Clark International Airport was looking for a vendor to support the airport’s expansion plans with three key areas of consideration — timeline for delivery,  technical capabilities, and a dedicated and experienced local support team,” said Kit Su Lee, Asia-Pacific regional head of operations for Collins Aerospace’s Information Management Services business.

“We were able to build a custom package for the airport that not only meets that criteria but will also create a more enjoyable travel experience for customers and improve CRK’s capacity and efficiency.”

While Bi Yong Chungunco, chief executive officer of Luzon International Premiere Airport Development Corp, the operator for Clark International Airport said: “We are excited to be partnering Collins Aerospace to provide the suite of passenger service solutions to Clark International Airport in its journey to be a world class airport in the Philippines and beyond.

“With these solutions, passengers will have a smooth, seamless, and stress-free passenger journey with new 24/7 self-service check-in facilities and digital wayfinding screens.”

All the solutions, which include cloud-based passenger check-in platform ARINC cMuse, are expected to be installed and operational by the third quarter of 2021.
