Helsinki Airport gets smart
Helsinki Airport will soon be the first airport in the world with the ability to track passenger flows during their entire airport experience. The new tools have been developed
by Walkbase, a Finnish company that is the leader in retail tracking analytics and indoor wifi positioning systems. Walkbase has installed dozens of sensors throughout the entire terminal complex, which track the estimated 60-70% of people who visit the airport and leave their mobile phones with wifi turned on. The technology lets airport retailers maximise their marketing efforts and will soon allow passengers to benefit from location-based content on their phones – such as changed departure times, gate information and transfer directions. "The smart phone will be able to tell
you if there is time to shop or eat or if you need to make way to your departure gate," said Tuomas Wuoti, Walkbase ceo.

Oslo Airport's chef success
Christer Rødseth who works as executive chef at Oslo Airport, has been named the winner in the Global Chef Challenge held in Norway earlier this month. Christer assisted chef Christopher
Davidsen to beat off competition from some of the world’s leading culinary practitioners, including teams from the US, Hong Kong, Australia, Italy, the Czech Republic and Switzerland, to take the title. The competition involves preparing
a four-course dinner for 12 people in seven hours. This is the second victory for Rødseth, who took the top prize at the event in 2012 as assistant to Geir Magnus Svae. A delighted Rødseth said this latest win would help to further develop his reputation on the international culinary stage.

AMENITY KITS
New overnight kits for Turkish Airlines
Turkish Airlines will introduce new overnight kits this autumn designed and produced by skysupply. The brief was to design a simple, yet elegant, overnight kit and the final product comes in two types: a beige edition for females and a black edition for men. Each kit includes a t-shirt, socks, a brush and dental tools. Women will also receive a hygiene set and a nail file, while men get a shaving set. Both overnight kits also contain cosmetic amenities. Wolfgang Bücherl, md at skysupply,
said: “We have been working with international airlines for many years – in addition to providing high quality products, we are also incorporating cultural specifications when it comes to choosing the right items for our clients. The bags will be available from
October/November 2014 and will be distributed by Turkish Airlines to arriving passengers whose luggage is delayed.
