AI-Forward System Design — The airtuerk Ecosystem
New unified design system, faster user flows, personalization
- Web & Market: airtuerk.de (DE) · airtuerk.com.tr (TR)
- Design System & Mobile: airtuerk UI Kit (tokens, components, patterns) applied across all products; faster, slimmer user flows that convert.
- Product Suite: rentalCar · airLounge (lounge booking) · myTransfer (transfers) · ait ibe (internal booking & admin) · multicheck · myBooking (check-in) · myStats (dashboard) · terminal (brand guidelines & central access hub).
- AI & Ops: AI content ops and personalization; SEO modules; CRM/email &social for DE/TR locations.
- Brand & Org: Full rebrand, department setup & employer branding; airline marketing with partners (Qatar Airways, TAP Air, others).
Outcome: Shorter booking paths, higher CVR, stronger partner visibility, consistent modern brand—contributing to +40% revenue (€550M → €750M) and a clear trajectory to >€1B by mid-2026.
