Leveraging the Amadeus Data lake:

PAX Forecast Product Objective
Providing Accurate Demand Forecasts to Airports and Ground Handlers
passengers boarded per
hour
passengers forecasted
per hour
Result:
Solution:
Provide airports with a passenger forecast:
• >2 weeks in advance per flight
(or 15 min window)
• Identify passenger type (local departure,
transfer, local arrival)
Benefit:
Airports use historical data to guess at
demand for resource allocation
Enable Airports to better planning and
optimize resource allocation
Problem:
Airports are typically blind to future
passenger demand
