Conversations with Dez

I caught up with Zee Hussain, Senior Vice President Global Business - Finance, Healthcare and Industry Solutions, at AT&T Business, to learn about an AT&T Business initiative focused on the connected future of air travel, to discover how innovative, networked technologies are revolutionising the passenger experience, and what airports can do to solve traditional passenger pain points with connected solutions. Key areas of focus for this initiative include: ● Transforming air travel ● Staying on schedule ● Checking in ● Lost baggage ● Streamlining security ● Passenger confidence ● Better boarding In this conversation Zee and I discuss a range work being doing around “the connected future of air travel” and everything around Transforming Air Travel, from Staying on Schedule, Checking in, Lost Baggage, Streamlining Security, challenges around Passenger Confidence, Better Boarding and more. ● Transforming air travel We kick off with Zee sharing insights into what in particular gave rise to the opportunity to look into opportunities to Transform Air Travel? Zee goes on to share key insights around air travel at the front end, i.e. scheduling, checking, and baggage handling, including: ● Staying on schedule ● Checking in ● Lost baggage We go on to look at the challenges the aviation industry is facing now more than ever, with the ongoing need to address recurring challenges such as: ● Streamlining security ● Passenger confidence ● Better boarding The last two and a half years has thrown so many big challenges up in the air if you’ll pardon the pun, for aviation operators, esp. with the likes of Streamlining Security, addressing Passenger Confidence and fundamentals such as Better Boarding strategies. I asked Zee to share his thoughts around what’s new in these areas and what sort of work are you doing with customers on these big topics, and what next. To wrap us up, I invited Zee to share his views on what Aviation & Air Travel Operators should be discussing currently in their board-rooms, to ensure the are well placed over the next 12 months. Push play now, and tune-in for the full conversation and amazing insights around the connected future of air travel. This podcast was made in association with AT&T Business.
