<strong>2019</strong> EXHIBITORS<br />

This <strong>June</strong>, Star Alliance celebrates its<br />

fifth anniversary of operations at<br />

London Heathrow Terminal 2 І <strong>The</strong><br />

Queen’s Terminal<br />

In 2014 the purpose-built facility became<br />

the home of Star Alliance member carriers<br />

operating to and from Heathrow, with the<br />

aim of offering customers a state-of-theart<br />

travel experience with seamless<br />

transfer options.<br />

To further improve the customer<br />

experience for those travelling via<br />

Heathrow, Star Alliance introduced its<br />

Connection Service earlier this year. This<br />

assists passengers with tight connections<br />

between two Star Alliance member's flights.<br />

iGo. Anywhere<br />

Dedicated staff use special software<br />

to monitor the transfer window for<br />

customers with onward flights. Cases<br />

where passengers and checked bags<br />

appear in danger of missing a connection<br />

are automatically highlighted.<br />

<strong>The</strong> agent can consider the various<br />

options available to ensure that the<br />

customer reaches the onward flight, or<br />

if necessary book alternative options,<br />

before the inbound flight even lands.<br />
