SITA will provide specialised airport systems for Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea International Airport‘s (RSI) new Main Terminal building. This collaboration builds on SITA’s prior work with RSI, including the successful implementation of technology in the airport’s Air Taxi Terminal.
RSI, a key component of The Red Sea destination developed by Red Sea Global, is projected to handle one million annual passengers by 2030, with a peak capacity of 900 passengers per hour. To manage this anticipated volume seamlessly, the partnership will leverage digital innovations to create a smooth and efficient passenger experience.
Under the agreement, SITA will implement a range of advanced solutions designed to streamline operations. The SITA Flex platform and Maestro departure control system will automate check-in and departure processes, enabling passengers to control their journey via mobile devices. For baggage management, SITA Bag Manager will provide real-time tracking of every bag within the airport, ensuring efficient reconciliation and freeing staff to focus on more complex tasks.
In addition, SITA will deploy a suite of airport management solutions that use data analytics to optimise resource allocation and enhance operational efficiency. Passengers will benefit from real-time updates provided by SITA’s Information Display Systems, ensuring clear and timely communication throughout their journey.
RSI will also benefit from cost-effective implementation of these technologies. By building on the infrastructure already established in the Air Taxi Terminal, SITA will deliver fully interoperable systems that streamline operations and improve efficiency.
