<p>Fraport AG has entered into a collaboration with Sittig Technologies and the Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences to introduce Auracast™ technology at Frankfurt Airport. This initiative, supported by the Distr@l digital-accessibility funding program from the German state of Hesse, aims to enhance accessibility by allowing passengers to receive clear gate announcements directly on their hearing aids, earbuds, or smartphones. The new system is being trialed at gates A16 and A17 in Terminal 1, with feedback from travelers and staff to be collected over the next two months to evaluate its impact on comfort, accessibility, and the overall passenger experience. This partnership positions Frankfurt Airport as the first in the world to use Auracast™ for public announcements, supporting both inclusiveness for travelers with hearing loss and “silent airport” concepts.
