Oman Airports has achieved a groundbreaking milestone by becoming the first airport operator globally to fully deploy WiFi 7 technology across its facilities. This advanced upgrade, developed in collaboration with Huawei, promises passengers ultra-fast internet speeds, enhanced security, and a seamless digital experience tailored to the needs of modern travelers. The implementation of WiFi 7 marks a significant leap in airport connectivity, offering gigabit-plus performance, quick downloads, and smooth streaming on compatible devices. This innovation is particularly timely as Gulf states prepare to introduce the GCC’s new ‘one-stop’ travel system, which will streamline immigration and security checks for Gulf citizens by processing all formalities at the departure airport. WiFi 7’s capabilities, including the ability to utilize the 6GHz, 5GHz, and 2.4GHz bands simultaneously, ensure reduced latency, congestion-free peak hours, and reliable connections for biometric systems and e-gates. With stronger encryption and higher bandwidth, WiFi 7 also facilitates the secure and rapid transfer of passenger data, essential for the new travel model. Oman’s adoption of this technology positions its airports as future-proofed hubs, ready to handle the increased network demands of the region’s evolving aviation landscape.
