Game on in Zurich. 🏒✈️ As the Ice Hockey World Championship gets underway in Switzerland, our teams at Zurich Airport have been welcoming several national teams, including Team Hungary, Team Finland, Team Latvia and Team Slovakia. From passenger handling to oversized hockey equipment and time-critical baggage operations, every arrival requires careful coordination behind the scenes. Team Latvia even arrived with all player baggage and hockey gear on the same flight, creating a particularly exciting turnaround for our ground handling teams. Moments like these highlight the operational expertise, flexibility and teamwork that help keep major international events moving smoothly. Best of luck to all nations competing in this year’s championship. 🏆

We’re driving smarter and safer operations in Geneva, where we’ve introduced Targa telematics to further enhance performance across our ground operations. 📈 At Genève Aéroport, we’re advancing digitalisation with a real-time tracking solution that gives our teams instant visibility of equipment location, usage and battery levels. Since March 2026, all passenger boarding stairs have been equipped, improving speed, coordination and overall operational performance on the apron, with a phased rollout already underway across our wider GSE fleet. At the same time, the system enhances safety through user identification and full traceability of equipment movements, helping us detect and reduce operational risks. Already successfully deployed in the UK and Cyprus, the rollout in Geneva marks the next step in scaling this technology across our network. And as the first station in Switzerland to introduce Targa telematics, Geneva is helping drive forward our data-driven approach to ground handling.

In case you missed it, our CEO Warwick Brady recently spoke on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme with Will Baine about Heathrow expansion and the future of UK airport capacity.   Heathrow is already the most expensive hub in the world by a significant margin. As Warwick puts it, “bigger doesn’t mean better”, and under the current regulatory framework, higher costs are effectively incentivised through higher returns.   With operations at more than 300 airports, including 20 of the world’s major international hubs, we see first-hand how this undermines UK competitiveness.   We support Heathrow expansion, but not at any cost. Affordability is essential, which is why we back Heathrow Reimagined: A Better Hub for Britain.   Definitely worth a listen 👇
