TAV Georgia continues to invest in the technological development of Tbilisi and Batumi international airports and the digitalization of services.
Over the past five years, TAV Airports’ subsidiary, TAV Technologies, has carried out multiple phases of work in Tbilisi to ensure that the country’s main airport meets the challenges of modernity, offering passengers additional comfort through the simplification of procedures.
In the last three years alone, TAV Georgia has invested 6.5 million GEL in these projects.
In addition to investments made in the IT sector, TAV Georgia allocates up to 6 million GEL annually within its operating budget to ensure the proper functioning and quality of its IT infrastructure, as secure, stable, and efficient IT infrastructure is a critically important priority in the aviation sector.
At Tbilisi International Airport, a self-service passenger boarding system, the so-called E Gate, has been implemented. This system allows passengers to avoid long lines and board the plane more comfortably via a jet bridge.
Since 2024, one E Gate exit has been operational at Tbilisi International Airport, with two more expected to be added in 2025. From August 2024 to the present, over 50,000 passengers have used this service at Tbilisi International Airport.
Self-check-in kiosks have been installed in the airport’s departure terminal. The Self Check-in system includes two kiosks, integrated with several airlines, including Air France, LOT Polish Airlines, Qatar Airways, and Turkish Airlines. Plans are underway to increase the number of kiosks and integrate additional airlines into the system.
Tbilisi International Airport has also established an automated car parking system.
The CarPark self-service system eliminates the issue of queue formation and makes the airport visit more convenient for passengers.
Additionally, last year, the flight information display system (FIDS) was updated at both Tbilisi and Batumi international airports, enhancing the flexibility and quality of information provided to passengers.
TAV Technologies, a subsidiary of TAV Airports Holding, is a leading IT integrator in the aviation sector. The company works on the development of technologies and digital services at more than 50 airports in 20 countries.
The systems implemented by TAV Technologies serve 400 million passengers annually. In the South Caucasus region, TAV Technologies’ services are implemented at three international airports: Tbilisi, Batumi, and Baku International Airports.
