Case Study: Fraport AG optimizes passenger flow at Frankfurt Airport with AnyLogic simulation software

Fraport AG processes 5.5 million passengers in a month with AnyLogic

Fraport AG, the operator of Frankfurt Airport, faced challenges managing rapidly increasing passenger volumes within its aging, complex terminal structure. With limited options for physical expansion, Fraport needed to optimize passenger flow and reduce wait times to maintain service quality and efficiency. They turned to AnyLogic simulation software to address this problem.

acp-IT AG developed a high-performance passenger flow simulation model using AnyLogic. This model incorporated airport infrastructure, real-time passenger data, and behavioral modeling to forecast movement. The solution enabled Frankfurt Airport to successfully process a record 5.5 million passengers in a single month without operational issues. The AnyLogic model continues to provide real-time insights and support proactive crowd control through dynamic terminal management.
