Situatie
In order to contribute to Schiphol’s ambition to become Europe’s Preferred Airport, the Customer Experience department (Schiphol CX) focuses on accelerating the innovation towards a great Passenger Experience. A busy airport with global travelers 24/7 and an intricate journey from entrance to departure.
Uitdaging
To really make an impact for the passengers, we were in need of a way of working that catered to Schiphol’s organizational needs. This meant working in a focused, connected and evidence-based way We achieved these goals by using Living Labs: test environments in the terminal where we test new concepts live with passengers.
Oplossing
The Schiphol PX Method - A method that enabled the project team to identify high impact passenger needs through Design Thinking methods. Additionally, it allowed us to develop products and services together with internal and external experts, based on passengers Experience Principles, and swiftly test them by running experiments in the terminal with passengers in our Living Labs.
Impact
The testing at the Living Labs enabled us, in a relatively small setting, to discover up to what extent an intervention improves the Passenger Experience before Schiphol-wide implementation. This gave the organization the assurance to proceed with implementation. By NPS-based evidence proving what works and what doesn’t, the team achieved double-digit growth in NPS at the security journey.

Onderzoek
The emotional journey from arriving at the airport to boarding the plane.
Although a customer journey existed, we needed deeper and contextual information about the why behind passenger’s feelings and emotions at the airport. For that, we conducted in-depth interviews to identify the struggles, pains and emotional states of passengers on their airport journey.
Tools used: in-depth interviewing
Ontwerp
'Principle-based' Interventie Brainstorm en ontwerp
Based on research insights, emotional principles for the passenger were defined. Following, we brainstormed together with several internal and external stakeholders to generate principle-based interventions in the customer journey, with a focus on security and hygiene.
Tools used: 4-cycle brainstorm canvas, pitch cards, customer journey
Experiment & Validate
Experimenteren en valideren van de beste passagiersreis
Door een kleine groep passagiers de 'Living Lab' ervaring te laten ondergaan en een andere groep de 'normale' ervaring op te sturen (beide gemeten met Net Promoter Score), kan de werkelijke impact worden gekwantificeerd en vergeleken. Hierdoor is onze methode datagestuurd, wat ons helpt om betere beslissingen te nemen.
User research often comes down to surveys that yield big amounts of data. However, surveys leave no room to ask your user “why?”. The small setup of our Living Labs enabled us to go beyond the obvious by asking our Passengers “why?”, to really understand them.
Tools used: Experiment cards, experiment design, Living Labs
Resultaat
Double-digit NPS increase at the Living Lab Security, and the confidence to expand and launch other Labs across the Passenger Journey.
