Airports are expanding at pace.

Terminals are larger. Passenger volumes are rising. Expectations are rising with them. The conversation is shifting from individual technologies to how the full screening environment performs as a single operational system.

At Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Vietnam, the new T3 terminal shows what this looks like.

↳ CTiX screening that enhances detection capability and supports higher throughput.
↳ Automated lanes that keep passengers moving.
↳ AI-supported object recognition.
↳ High-performance hold baggage screening.

Every element planned as part of an integrated architecture designed to support sustained, high-capacity flow.

This is where the step change happens.
☑️ Flow becomes more predictable.
☑️ Operators work with clearer focus.
☑️ Screening decisions gain consistency.
☑️ The terminal gains the resilience required to operate confidently at scale.

Across the industry, the direction is clear. Airports are moving away from isolated upgrades and towards connected screening ecosystems that adapt, evolve and support long-term growth.

Vietnam offers a strong example of what is possible when security strategy, infrastructure design and day-to-day operations align from the outset.
