Tulka, a Finnish mobile interpreting service, and Finavia, the operator of the 21 Finnish airports, have launched a pilot project at Helsinki Airport and in Rovaniemi, at the official airport of Santa Claus. Sales and service personnel at the airports will test the interpretation service on tablet computers in different customer service situations, particularly with Chinese and Russian customers.
- Finavia’s aim is to provide its customers with innovative world-class services. Tulka allows us to contact a professional interpreter within seconds in the form of sound and image, says Helsinki Airport Vice President Heikki Koski from Finavia.
The aim of this joint project is to find out the benefits of interpretation between passengers and service providers at airports. One of the key metrics analysed in the pilot is the effect of the customer experience on customer numbers and sales volumes.
The service providers participating in the Tulka pilot are Budget-Avis, Taxi Point Oy, World of Delights Helsinki, Marimekko, Iittala, WDFG Helsinki, Finavia Customer Service at Helsinki Airport, and Rovaniemi Airport.
The pilot launched in July and will continue until the end of 2017. Decisions on whether to continue the service will be made after the pilot.
