ORAT was born in 1992, when Munich Airport moved to its current location in an unprecedented overnight operation. Since then, Munich Airport’s experts have successfully delivered more than 50 ORAT projects worldwide. With this new course we want to share our know-how and experience with our fellow peers and support them in building their own ORAT skills.
