Aircraft ground handler, dnata has partnered with AeroVect to pilot and deploy its autonomous ground support equipment.
As part of these trials, up to 100 of dnata’s baggage and cargo tractors will be equipped with the AeroVect Driver automation software.
Under this partnership, dnata will be the first global handler to pilot and deploy autonomous ground support equipment at scale. The technology will be trialled in Dubai at Dubai International (DXB) and Dubai World Central (DWC), as well as at other airports around the world.
dnata anticipates that this deployment will enhance the productivity, reliability and safety of its ground support operations and combat ongoing staffing issues, which often result in passenger delays.
Eugenio Donati, co-founder of AeroVect said:We are beyond excited to partner with dnata, the leading global ground handler, and help them accelerate the transformation of their logistics operations at the world’s busiest airports. With a deep passion for innovation and unwavering commitment to service excellence, dnata is the logical partner for AeroVect as we bring GSE automation to market at scale globally.
