NIA CEO Christoph Schnellmann said: “We’re looking forward to our collaboration with Siemens Logistics.

“Noida International Airport will be India’s newest, greenest and most digital airport, providing a quick, easy and seamless experience for passengers and cost-efficient operations for airlines.

“We decided to rely on the Siemens team, who presented us (with) the best value proposition with the most powerful and reliable baggage handling technologies.
