1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,680
Speaker 1: There are screening changes on the way when you go

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:06,080
Speaker 1: through the Adelaide Airport. They're rolling out body scanners and

3
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:11,560
Speaker 1: three D X ray bag scanners across all the security

4
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: areas as you go through and queue up there and

5
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 1: then get into the main part of the terminal. It

6
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:20,279
Speaker 1: is starting from this weekend, and what that means is

7
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: you won't have to remove laptops, tablets, aerosols from carry

8
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 1: on laggage when you're passing through the security checkpoints. Dermot

9
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 1: O'Neil from the Adelaide Airport. Morning, Dermot, Good morning, Matt.

10
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: What does this mean moving forward? So X ray three

11
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: D X ray machines and body scans as well. Do

12
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: people need to be nervous?

13
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 2: So look, as you mentioned, there's some good benefits here.

14
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 2: This is part of, I guess an ongoing evolution of

15
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 2: screening equipment. And this new equipment, as you've mentioned, is

16
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 2: a three three D X ray scanner which uses computer

17
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 2: tomography to generate three D image of baggage as it

18
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 2: goes through the machine, and that provides a really significant

19
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 2: and enhanced view of the items that are being screened

20
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,479
Speaker 2: as they go through. So we already use two body

21
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 2: scanners in the terminal at the moment at the main

22
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,759
Speaker 2: screening point, and one of those three d X ray

23
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 2: bag scanners at the central screening point as well. So

24
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 2: this kicks off this weekend. It's the start of the

25
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 2: project and it'll run through to late twenty twenty five.

26
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: Okay, so it'll take a while to roll out. Imagine

27
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,679
Speaker 1: the idea is to speed things up as well.

28
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely so, we'll be installing six of these new

29
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 2: lanes and once that is all complete, we anticipate quicker

30
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 2: screening times for each customer. However, we'll still have that

31
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 2: capacity to add further lanes as we need to cater

32
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,559
Speaker 2: for further growth in demand as passengers continue to grow.

33
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 2: But as you mentioned, this will allow all those things

34
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 2: that people are current taking out of their bags, such

35
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 2: as laptops, iPads, aerosols. Once complete, they'll all be able

36
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,079
Speaker 2: to stay in the bag as well, which will help

37
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 2: speed up that process. And it will also mean that

38
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 2: we'll have one screening process across across the entire screening point,

39
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 2: so we're conscious at the moment. Depending on which machine

40
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 2: you go through at the moment, there is a couple

41
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 2: of different processes that you may have to go through

42
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 2: So making sure that at the end of these works

43
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 2: there's one consistent process will also be a lot easier

44
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 2: for our customers, and that'll be rolling out nationwide as well.

45
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 2: So also aware that as you go through different airports

46
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 2: current at the moment, there's different technologies in place. Over

47
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 2: time that'll be consistent throughout the network as well.

48
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: We'll all get used to it in time, I'm sure.

49
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 1: But body scanning, when we hear that, what does that mean?

50
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: What does it show your viewers, your people who are

51
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:54,519
Speaker 1: looking at the screens.

52
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 2: Sure, so when you actually go through those machines at

53
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 2: the moment at the airport, as I said, we have

54
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 2: some of these machines already in use. At the moment,

55
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 2: all you see is an outline of a of an

56
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 2: image of a person, and you can actually see that

57
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 2: same image when you're walking through and undergoing that scanning

58
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 2: at the moment. So that's something that you can see.

59
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 2: And as I said, it's just an outline of an

60
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 2: image of a person, similar to to what you might

61
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 2: see in directional signage in a terminal.

62
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, so it's not a microscopic shall we say?

63
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 2: No, it's not invasive in that regard that you can

64
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 2: actually see things you shouldn't otherwise be seeing. But as

65
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: I said that that the image used is similar to

66
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 2: the sort of image of a person that you might

67
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 2: see on directional signage in a terminal.

68
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, So, and these exist already last time

69
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: I was there, they must be reasonably you last time

70
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: I was there a couple of months back, I suppose

71
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: now didn't notice them at all.

72
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, so we've got we've we've got one of the

73
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 2: three d X ray machines that scans bags already at

74
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 2: the main screening point. It's to the right of the

75
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 2: screening point. And we've got those body scanners already in

76
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: place at the screening point as well, at a similar

77
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 2: point down the right hand end. So from this weekend,

78
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 2: the first phase of works that commencing will see us

79
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 2: move the furthest right hand lane to a new temporary

80
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,919
Speaker 2: location at the left of the screening point, and that

81
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 2: will go through what was once the location of the

82
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 2: Cockerlart coffee shop. That your listeners may be familiar within

83
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 2: the terminal, So visitors will start to notice that change

84
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 2: from this weekend, and we'll obviously make sure that we've

85
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 2: got our team on hand and stuff on hand to

86
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,280
Speaker 2: assist people that need any further or additional assistance as

87
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 2: we redirect them.

88
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 1: All right, appreciate your time this morning. Thank you. Thanks

89
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 1: Matt Debit I new Adelaide Airport, so screening upgrades underway

90
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: there and as he said, they'll be completed within next

91
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 1: year and around a year from now, so a little

92
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 1: way off for all of it before it is in place.

93
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: Thank you for your time
