The airport sector is in constant transformation, and in this scenario of change, strategic alliances play a crucial role in the evolution and optimization of operations. In the most recent edition of Airside Magazine, Air Rail and Yutong have been featured, highlighting their commitment to innovation and sustainability in the field of airport ground transportation.
Our collaboration with Yutong, a world leader in bus manufacturing and electric mobility solutions, has been key to the expansion of its presence in Europe. As strategic partners, we have worked together to bring their cutting-edge technology to new markets, ensuring a more efficient and sustainable operation for the airports in which we operate.
Strategic growth in the airport sector
Since the inception of our partnership, we have strengthened Yutong 's presence in the European market, integrating its advanced solutions at multiple airports. This growth has not only allowed us to expand our customer network, but has also consolidated confidence in Air Rail 's ability to manage and optimize the use of these vehicles in demanding airport environments.
Thanks to our experience in implementing innovative solutions, we have been able to adapt Yutong products to the specific operational needs of each airport, guaranteeing efficiency, safety and reduced operating costs.
Technology and sustainability: The shared vision of Air Rail and Yutong
One of the fundamental pillars of this alliance has been the joint commitment to technology and sustainability. Yutong has developed a fleet of vehicles with electric propulsion technology that significantly reduces the carbon footprint at airports. Its innovation in long-life batteries and intelligent management systems has transformed ground mobility in the airport industry.
For our part, Air Rail has complemented this technology with efficient operation management, ensuring that each airport can maximize the performance of these vehicles and optimize transfer times, energy consumption and maintenance costs.
In addition, the incorporation of real-time monitoring systems has allowed for better resource management, reducing downtime and improving the experience for both operators and passengers.
The impact on airports and their operability
The integration of Yutong buses into the fleets of European airports has represented a significant improvement in logistics and mobility within the terminals. Among the most outstanding benefits of this collaboration, we find:
✅ Increased operational efficiency: Yutong's technology reduces passenger transfer time between terminals, optimizing internal mobility.
✅ Reducing emissions: By operating electric vehicles, airports can advance their sustainability goals and reduce their environmental impact.
✅ Lower maintenance cost: The durability and reliability of Yutong buses, combined with optimized Air Rail management, allows for reduced costs associated with maintenance and energy consumption.
Adaptability to different airports: Thanks to our experience, we have adapted these solutions to airports of different scales, ensuring efficient integration without operational disruptions.
Looking to the future: Expansion and new opportunities
The recent signing of our partnership agreement with Yutong reaffirms our commitment to further expand the presence of these vehicles in more European airports. This strategic alliance not only strengthens our growth, but also lays the foundation for the development of new mobility solutions within the sector.
Looking ahead, we continue to explore opportunities to improve airport mobility through technological innovation, ensuring that Air Rail and Yutong continue to lead the way towards a more efficient and sustainable industry.
