Aurrigo International plc will be showcasing two of its latest baggage/cargo handling and passenger transport solutions at this week’s Passenger Terminal Expo 2026.

The company, which has already operated at 12 international airports, will be displaying its Auto Dolly-Tug and Auto-Shuttle on stand E165 at Excel London from tomorrow (17 March) to Thursday (19 March).

Hailed as two of the biggest innovations to emerge in aviation in 40 years, Aurrigo says the autonomous vehicles will help airports improve the way they move luggage and passengers airside while boosting their sustainability.

Visitors to PTE World will be able to explore the technology first hand, as well as meeting a host of the company’s experts to talk through industry pain points and real-world operational challenges.

Aurrigo’s Executive Team will also be there to open the show on Tuesday and are keen to connect with both existing and new customers.

Auto Dolly-Tug, which leads the future of intelligent ground support equipment (iGSE), is an all-electric autonomous vehicle boasting the ability to automatically load and unload up to one ULD on board and four conventional dollies in tow.

It delivers unparalleled manoeuvrability thanks to its bi-directional sideways movements with a full 360-degree rotation enabling close quarter operations at aircraft stands or in baggage halls.

Auto-Shuttle will also be making its way from East Midlands Airport to be live on the stand.

The 10-seater passenger vehicle is fully autonomous and has been designed to provide a transport solution for crew and VIP movements.

Tenille Houston, Aurrigo’s VP Public Relations and Communications, said: “This is a very exciting time to be bringing our solutions to a global audience at one of the sector’s biggest shows.

“We have enjoyed significant success in engaging with airports across the world and are currently deployed in eight live trials at locations including Cincinnati, Schiphol, Zurich – and, closer to home, at East Midlands and Teesside in the UK.

“An increasing number of operators are switching on to the environmental, operational and performance benefits our autonomous technology can bring airside, from moving luggage and cargo around airports to transporting staff and passengers over short distances.”

She added: “PTE World is the perfect place to start more conversations about how we can help save money, cut costs and make ground handling more efficient.”
