Travelator bandara pertama

1958

year

Love Field Airport in Dallas installed the first moving walkway in an airport terminal in 1958, setting a standard now found in airports worldwide.

Penjelasan

As airports grew larger and walking distances between gates increased, the moving walkway became essential for passenger comfort, especially for elderly travelers and those with tight connections. The technology was adapted from industrial conveyor belt systems. Today, the largest airports like Atlanta and Dubai have kilometers of moving walkways. Some airports have experimented with higher-speed variants, though most move at about 0.5 m/s.
