AirPortr is making the future of air travel more efficient, seamless, and sustainable. Its platform connects airlines, airports, ground handlers and customers, to create innovative smart-baggage solutions for airline customers, from doorstep to destination.
We work with the industry leaders to redefine air travel experience for passengers and bring the most innovative baggage solutions for off-airport check in and processing. Our products redefine user experience, operational efficiencies at the airport, and infrastructural requirements of the next generation of airports.
We’re growing rapidly as we scale into new markets in Europe and beyond, and our growth is further underpinned by strong consumer demand for services that simplify the travel journey. Our plug and play platform manages everything from merchandising the product with airlines, through to orchestrating service delivery with our large supply partners, like global handler, Swissport. All the complexity within this is turned into customer simplicity, through a fully digitised end-to-end user experience.
