Travellers will enjoy contactless food and retail ordering and delivery at airports

As travellers gear up to start flying again, airport e-commerce platform Grab and top in-airport food and retail delivery firm AtYourGate have combined forces to offer innovative contactless ordering and delivery for airline passengers whilst they are waiting for their flights at airports.

As a result, airports can benefit from being able to assist passengers to maintain safe social distancing by giving them the flexibility to order using their own personal devices, allowing them to have their food and other purchases delivered direct to their chosen airport gate where they will be awaiting their flight to depart. Of course, they'll be able to order across terminal and security lines, meaning they'll have a much wider choice of dining and retail options.

Jeff Livney, of Grab, said: “At this difficult time, our goal is to make the experience at airports less stressful for travellers who are worried about flying again.

"The way people dine and shop at airports is going through a period of change. I hope our platform will assist travellers who are nervous and help to calm their fears, as they take to the skies again.”

PJ Mastracchio, who is the founder and CEO of AtYourGate said: "The existence of new, safety-focused dining and retail options like contactless delivery services will be a major part vital of the expectations of travellers as they start to fly, again.

He added:"With this partnership we have combined the best available technology with world-class customer service and safety standards to provide safe, copnvenient alternatives to traditional shopping methods and dining normally available within airports."

At present this service will be limited to North American airports, though it is believed they have plans to expand into other markets in the future.
