AI Agents for Airlines and Ground Handling | Match-AI

Aviation is a sector where disruptions (delayed flights, cancellations, technical problems) require real-time communication with hundreds of passengers simultaneously. Poor communication during disruptions is the biggest source of complaints and negative reviews. AI agents automate passenger communication and operational coordination.

Passenger Communication During Disruptions

An AI agent manages disruption communication: when a flight is delayed or cancelled, all affected passengers receive a personalized message within 60 seconds via email, SMS, or app notification with the current status, the new expected departure time, the relevant gate, and information about vouchers or compensation. The system keeps information updated in real-time and automatically sends updates at each status change.

  • Real-time disruption message: inform all passengers <60 seconds
  • Gate updates: automatically communicate changes
  • Compensation information: automatically communicate EU261 rights upon cancellation
  • Status updates: automatically forward at each change

Baggage Management and Loss Reports

Lost baggage is one of the most frustrating passenger experiences. An AI agent manages the baggage trail: passengers who do not receive their baggage report this digitally via the app and immediately receive a reference number, a damage estimate, and real-time updates on the search status. When the baggage is found, the passenger automatically receives a confirmation with delivery information. The system monitors SLA deadlines and escalates when they are at risk of being exceeded.

  • Digital loss report: via app with immediate reference number
  • Real-time search status: automatically inform passenger about progress
  • Delivery confirmation: automatically communicate delivery date and time
  • SLA monitoring: escalate when baggage deadline risks being exceeded

Check-in and Boarding Optimization

An AI agent optimizes the boarding process: passengers receive an automatic check-in reminder 24 hours before the flight with a deep link to mobile check-in, a seat upgrade offer based on availability and profile, and gate information. On the day of the flight, the system sends real-time push notifications for gate changes or boarding calls that are relevant to that specific passenger.

Match-AI implements AI agents for airlines, regional carriers, ground handling companies, airport operators, and low-cost carriers that want to automate their passenger communication and improve operational efficiency.
