“Air transport is growing and so are expectations. Our industry increasingly needs technology, innovation and people working together to connect each part of the journey, so disruptions are prevented, or fixed fast when they happen,” said David Lavorel, Chief Executive Officer, SITA. “This acquisition extends SITA’s offerings and capabilities, reinforcing our commitment and role as the trusted technology partner our customers rely on.”

Bringing together SITA and Collins Aerospace Airport Solutions will strengthen support for all customers and contribute to improved passenger, baggage and wider airport operations.

This acquisition will strengthen our ability to do that for more customers across the industry.”
