After record-breaking temperatures this summer here in the UK, we’re really looking forward to escaping to the Greek capital next month for a breath of fresh air at the Air Ground Services (AGS) Global Networking Summit, in association with ASA (Airport Services Association), which is due to take place from 5 to 7 September 2022 at the Grand Hyatt Athens in Athens, Greece. We’re exhibiting for the very first time at this event and can’t wait to meet up with old and new friends, and showcase our newest ground handling tech in one of the oldest cities in the world.
Whenever we’re due to head off to an Aviation industry event, we’re always keen to discover if the host city has any intriguing links with Aviation. Athens does not disappoint! In 1931, the Air Force School of the Hellenic Airforce Academy was founded in Tatoi, Athens. In 1967, it took the unofficial name of ‘Icarus School’ in reference to Icarus, the mythical pioneer of Aviation in Ancient Greece. To this day, the figure of Icarus remains the centrepiece of the Academy’s logo.
Our own pioneering Global Aviation Software Solutions will be on show at AGS 2022 at Stand 22 and we can’t wait to welcome the hundreds of delegates expected at the event to our exhibition space.
Come and say ‘hello’ to the Zafire team at Stand 22 and you’ll be in for a treat! As our global footprint grows and we continue to work with customers, old and new, we’re delighted to put the spotlight on the latest versions of our core suite of Aviation solutions at this year’s AGS:
- FirstRamp (cloud-based app for management of high-volume and time-critical turnaround tasks).
- FirstLoad (Automated Load Control for instant clearance and paperless ramp – safety is paramount).
- FirstBag (‘Download & Go’ SaaS-based baggage reconciliation and ‘One-Touch Reflighting’).
So, if you are looking to optimise aircraft turnaround, plan your workforce, manage complex SLAs, contracts and billing, implement a centralised load control strategy, or manage your bags more effectively, don’t miss out on a coffee and a chat with us at Stand 22 from 5 to 7 September 2022!
