How do airport business partnerships work?
Business
From coffee to car rentals, partnerships help keep airports running.
Restaurants, shops, lounges, car rentals and other services you enjoy at the airport are typically selected through competitive processes, so that travellers get the best quality, value and variety of essential and specialty services.
Employing thousands of locals in the process, this helps the airport collect revenue while making the experience more affordable for travellers through reinvestment.
These partnerships go beyond the gate, too. Airports work with hotels, parking providers, transit links and rideshare operators to ensure it’s easy to both leave and arrive at the airport.
This dynamic marketplace serves our partners by enabling businesses to connect and excel in their specialities and services. At the same time, we can host our important government security functions and safety systems.
