Passenger demand continues to grow, but airport checkpoints can't always grow with it. Space is limited. So is staffing. Infrastructure updates require significant time and capital. So how can airports move more passengers through the checkpoints they already have?

The wait is over: Hollywood Burbank Airport's new passenger terminal opened today. We're going behind the scenes to explore Burbank's shift from conventional information displays to a connected passenger communication strategy and program.

Passenger demand is growing. Checkpoint capacity is not. Airports cannot simply build their way out of the problem. They need to get more from existing infrastructure and resources while deploying proven improvements faster. That challenge was at the center of Synect's FTE Global 2026 panel, "The Checkpoint Has Changed."

As America celebrates its 250th anniversary, communities are coming together nationwide. The TSA expects to screen almost 18.7 million passengers during the busy Fourth of July travel period. Our recent national rollout of ReadySeeGo® at airport security checkpoints, combined with the upcoming holiday weekend, got us thinking about how creative content and digital signage help airports celebrate the moment.

Expensive screens aren’t the key to delivering exceptional airport customer experiences. Content strategy is. Whether an airport serves ten passengers or ten million, content strategy is the foundation for creating the seamless, stress-free experiences modern passengers expect.

Last week, our team joined airport leaders and industry innovators in Indianapolis for the AAAE/ACC Airport Planning, Design, & Construction Symposium (APDCS). Read for for key takeaways.

Seasonal content is helping passengers prepare for security screening at LAS and other leading airports across the country.

Two of our clients, TSA and MCO, have been nominated in eight categories for the 2025 Digital Signage Awards (DSAs) for innovative checkpoint experiences!

Our team recently spent a wonderful weekend in Toronto last week at the ACI-NA & ACI World Annual General Assembly, Conference and Exhibition.
