In a major competitive win, ARINC Incorporated has been awarded the contract for passenger check-in and departure systems at the new Berlin Brandenburg Airport, currently under construction. Under the contract, ARINC will install its industry-leading passenger solution vMUSETM, which is fully compliant with the IATA CUPPS standard for common-use passenger systems. The company will also install its BagLink baggage information distribution system, and provide full maintenance and support services for the installed technologies.
ARINC has already implemented a live test environment on 54 workstations, and has installed its AviNet Airport service for airlines to connect to host systems immediately. Hardware installation will be complete in February, and at full operation ARINC will have rolled out vMUSE on 153 workstations for check-in and back office desks, and 188 boarding gate workstations for use by 31 airlines and handling agents.
