Innovation and IT play a key role in both the operational and commercial success of an airline.

Brussels Airlines was the first airline in Belgium to launch online check-in, self-baggage check-in and home printed baggage labels.

 
The airline wants to continue to invest in customer experience and wants to keep innovating, both for the customers and for the work processes behind the scenes. That’s why Brussels Airlines has appointed Simon Lamkin as CIO.

 
“Building on our brand reputation and entrepreneurial spirit, Brussels Airlines wants to become the reference in airline digitalization for a better customer experience. The arrival of Simon will allow us to reach this ambition.”
