As the country’s busiest and largest airport, the Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport delivers a high-tech experience to match its size. Of high importance in the digital age, access to outlets is plentiful and robust in the airport’s gates, primarily led by Delta’s initiative to install free-standing charging stations with multiple electrical outlets and USB ports, averaging a high 8.1 outlets per gate in the airport.

The airport also provides more than 200 powered workspaces allowing passengers to recharge on the go. Recent advancements in high-tech marketing incorporate QR codes on advertisements throughout the airport, rewarding customers who scan the codes with special promotions and discounts in the airport’s shops and restaurants.

DALLAS/FORT WORTH INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

Making great strides in offering a high-tech travel experience, Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport partnered with Samsung to enhance many of the airport’s gates. The partnership has spun dozens of charging stations and seven mobile travel lounges, modern and sleek public lounges that offer respite from the chaos of the gate and provide plenty of outlets at all seating stations.

When it comes to the frustrations of parking your car, DFW has created a new hassle-free parking facility for Terminal A. Upgrading the structure with sensors and lights above each parking space, red and green signals provide drivers real-time information on unoccupied spaces, dramatically reducing the stress of seeking out an available spot. Continuing to advance in functionality, the smart garage is synced to the airport’s mobile app, giving customers advance information on parking availability.

CHICAGO O’HARE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

Most excitingly, O’Hare is in the works to unveil a new mobile platform to enable travelers to submit their passports and customs declaration information via their smartphones.

As one of the first airports in the country to feature WiFi back in 2000, the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport has always been on the forefront of tech-forward travel. Arriving in the airport from an international destination could not be simpler, as the airport’s eight Automated Passport Control kiosks and six Global Entry kiosks significantly help in expediting screening.

The smart new Automated Passport Control kiosks scan your passport, take your photograph, and provide a series of questions verifying biographic and flight information before issuing a receipt that is brought to a customs officer. Austin-Bergstrom’s “One-Stop” innovation allows international passengers to pick up their checked luggage first so the passengers and luggage can be cleared in one step.
