Airline Loyalty Programmes

Making travel a better experience

With passenger traffic growing by 79%* in the past decade, airports sometimes struggle to deliver the sort of seamless journey experience that puts travellers in the right frame of mind to relax, enjoy and spend a little more. Core to this challenge is the ability to engage the passengers earlier, understand their itineraries and better tailor their door to door journey.

Passengers want more. New segments are increasingly demanding a more personalised, real time and mobile experience. Failure to cater to this drives dissatisfaction and importantly leaves non-aeronautical revenue on the table.

Collinson is the industry leader in integrated airport experiences, traveller management and insights. By engaging with travellers early and better understanding their needs in a fully permissioned and trusted manner; we work with airports, tenants and concession holders to optimise the journey. We remove some of the stresses of travel and offer better, more relevant, more timely experiences that makes travel more memorable and more profitable.

Collinson brings over 30 years of traveller and customer loyalty management to better manage potentially all airport travellers and users.

Enhancing the airport retail experience

Travel retail is massive! It has grown by around 9% annually over the past 15 years and today is valued at $70 Million. But future competition likely comes from retailers that can potentially bypass the entire airport. And travellers want the same choice, convenience and digital flexibility at the airport as they experience with all other forms of retail engagement.

The modern traveller researches major purchases in advance, knows exactly where and how much he or she should be paying and expects a seamless level of service and value-added benefit from being a ‘valued’ customer. Whilst major players are slowly adapting to meet this new need, sector innovation is being driven by start-ups and innovators with whom digital, mobile and use of data are both native and intuitive.

Collinson is actively investing in and partnering with the best and brightest of these innovators; providing financial support, global management expertise and supporting their integration with and access to our worldwide customer and loyalty eco-systems, providing a seamless customer and merchant experience.
