Growing Winter Passenger Traffic Highlights the Importance of Planning Airport Parking Ahead of Holiday Travel

ALICANTE, Spain – October 5, 2026 – As Christmas and New Year travel plans begin to take shape across the Costa Blanca, Park-King is encouraging travelers flying from Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport to arrange their airport parking in advance to avoid last-minute stress during one of the busiest travel periods of the year.

While many travelers focus on flights, accommodation, and holiday preparations, airport parking is often left until the final days before departure. However, with increasing passenger traffic and longer holiday trips, securing parking ahead of time can significantly improve the travel experience.

According to AENA, Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport handled more than 1.1 million passengers in January 2026, representing a 4.7 percent increase compared to the same period the previous year and marking a record January for the airport. The figures highlight the continued demand for air travel throughout the winter season.

“Holiday travel already involves enough planning without adding airport parking concerns at the last minute,” said a spokesperson for Park-King. “By arranging parking in advance, travelers can focus on their trip rather than spending valuable time searching for available spaces on departure day.”

Park-King provides a range of Alicante Airport parking solutions designed to meet the needs of different travelers. Through its valet parking service, customers can hand over their vehicle near the terminal, allowing them to proceed directly to check-in without the inconvenience of transporting luggage from remote parking areas.

The company offers several parking options, including monitored outdoor parking, covered parking for additional protection, and premium solutions for luxury, classic, and high-value vehicles. This flexibility allows travelers to select a service based on both the length of their trip and the specific requirements of their vehicle.

Holiday travel often involves longer periods away from home, particularly for residents returning to the United Kingdom and other European countries to spend Christmas and New Year with family. For these travelers, considerations such as vehicle protection, ease of collection, and long-term parking value become increasingly important.

In addition to short-term parking services, Park-King also offers annual valet parking in Alicante for frequent travelers, business professionals, second-home owners, and residents who regularly travel between Spain and other European destinations. The service is designed to simplify recurring airport journeys by providing a consistent parking arrangement throughout the year.

The company’s annual programs offer various membership levels that include outdoor, covered, and premium vehicle storage options. Travelers interested in long-term solutions can review the available Park-King annual membership plans to determine which option best suits their travel habits and parking requirements.

Park-King also advises travelers to carefully evaluate parking providers before booking. Important considerations include vehicle handover procedures, security measures, parking conditions, and customer service standards. Understanding these details in advance helps ensure a smooth and reliable experience both before departure and upon return.

With Alicante remaining a major international travel hub throughout the festive season, demand for airport parking can increase significantly during December and early January. Early booking not only provides greater choice but also helps travelers secure preferred parking options, particularly for covered and premium vehicle storage.

As the holiday travel season approaches, Park-King encourages passengers to treat airport parking as an essential part of their travel planning rather than a last-minute task.

“Christmas travel should begin with excitement about the journey ahead,” the spokesperson added. “Organizing airport parking in advance is one simple step that can make the entire travel experience smoother and more enjoyable.”

New healthcare management guide presents daily metrics, warning thresholds, and practical playbooks for protecting revenue performance.

Los Angeles, CA

 Patricia Roels has announced the forthcoming release of Cash Before Crisis: The Revenue Cycle Playbook for Managers Who Hate Surprises, a resource for healthcare revenue cycle leaders seeking to detect operational problems before they become serious cash-flow emergencies.

Healthcare organizations often measure performance through monthly collection totals and other results that reveal what has already happened. Cash Before Crisis introduces a proactive approach based on monitoring the processes and warning signals that influence future financial outcomes.

The book identifies seven daily metrics that provide an early view of revenue cycle performance. These include denial rate, first-pass resolution rate, clean claim rate, authorization approval rate, cash collected versus expected, and accounts receivable older than 90 days. Readers learn what the metrics indicate, how they work together, and when changes require attention.

“Cash flow problems don’t appear out of nowhere. They leave clues for weeks before they become crises. The managers who avoid disasters aren’t lucky. They built a system that reads those clues early and responds before the damage compounds,”— Roels writes in the book.

Cash Before Crisis moves beyond identifying problems by providing structured playbooks for high-pressure situations. The guide outlines response steps for denial spikes, deteriorating accounts receivable, payer delays, system outages, and coding-error surges. It also examines front-end breakdowns involving registration, eligibility, and prior authorization, showing how small process failures can later affect reimbursement.

Additional sections address cross-department accountability, team development, leadership communication, and the creation of an operation that does not depend on one manager personally catching every problem. A 90-day implementation plan helps readers translate the book’s principles into workplace changes.

Created for revenue cycle managers, business office leaders, healthcare administrators, and executives, the book is intended for professionals seeking clearer operational visibility, stronger accountability, and fewer financial surprises.

Ahead of its release, Cash Before Crisis will be showcased at the Frankfurt Book Fair (Frankfurter Buchmesse), taking place October 7–11, 2026, in Frankfurt, Germany. As the world’s largest international publishing event, the fair brings together publishers, literary agents, booksellers, and industry professionals from around the globe. The book’s presence at Frankfurt offers an opportunity to introduce its practical, prevention-focused approach to revenue cycle management to an international audience of publishing and professional-development leaders.

Cash Before Crisis: The Revenue Cycle Playbook for Managers Who Hate Surprises will be available soon.

NEW YORK, USA

 Wingsure, an agricultural intelligence company and SRI spinout, announced the September 28 launch of Wingsure COFFEA™, a platform designed to capture and verify farm-level evidence and convert it into information that can support decision-making across the global coffee sector.

Avi Basu, Founder, CEO Wingsure

Wingsure originated as a spinout of SRI International, where its technology foundation incorporated work in computer vision, geospatial analytics and augmented reality. SRI has separately documented Wingsure’s spinout history and the use of these technologies in its agricultural applications.

Coffee production supports millions of farming households worldwide. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, up to 25 million farmers and their families depend on coffee, while smallholder farms account for a significant share of global coffee production.

Against that backdrop, coffee companies and agricultural organizations are managing requirements related to sourcing, traceability, sustainability, production and risk. Individual farms may currently be assessed separately for sustainability, sourcing, production, certification, finance and risk programs, resulting in repeated data collection and fragmented farm records.

Wingsure COFFEA™ is designed to address that fragmentation by capturing evidence at farm level, associating it with information about where and when it was collected, and developing a record that can be updated over successive seasons and used across multiple programs.

“What excites us about coffee is the opportunity to bring years of foundational deep-tech work to one of the world’s most important agricultural ecosystems — and to do it in a way that creates value on both sides of the farm gate,” said Avi Basu, Founder and CEO of Wingsure. “We have been fortunate to learn alongside some of the most respected organizations and people in coffee. One lesson has become very clear: a farm cannot be understood through a periodic form, a declaration or a satellite image alone. It is a living system.”

“Our job is to turn what is happening on that farm into trusted intelligence that gets better over time. For the grower, that means a farm record that becomes more valuable with every season. For the enterprise, it means a common intelligence foundation for better decisions across sustainability, sourcing, production, risk and finance.”

For growers, the platform is intended to help preserve observations, farming practices and field records that might otherwise remain distributed across separate surveys and programs. Over time, these records can help document agricultural practices and progress and support more relevant advisory programs.

Through participating programs, farm-level information may also be used in connection with initiatives involving incentives, agricultural insurance or credit, subject to the requirements of the applicable program or provider.

Using a compatible smartphone, Wingsure COFFEA™ combines augmented-reality-guided data capture, multilingual voice capabilities, computer vision, geospatial analytics, artificial intelligence and machine learning. SRI has described COFFEA™ as using guided field capture, multilingual voice interaction, computer vision and geospatial analysis to create time-stamped farm records, including in environments with limited connectivity.

“AI is only as credible as the evidence beneath it,” said Dr. Bikram Sengupta, Co-founder and CTO of Wingsure. “Our architecture keeps every insight connected to what was captured, where and when. That allows verification, inference and prediction to become part of one traceable intelligence system. The goal is not simply more data. It is intelligence you can trust.”

Together, these capabilities are designed to create an evolving information layer covering areas such as crop conditions, farming practices, production signals and agricultural risk. Rather than operating solely as a standalone application, Wingsure COFFEA™ is intended to complement enterprise systems and programs involving sustainability, sourcing, traceability, agricultural finance and risk.

SRI has reported that the Colombian Coffee Growers Federation (FNC) and Tata AIG General Insurance Company Ltd. are among the organizations engaging with Wingsure as it develops applications for farm-level intelligence.

Álvaro Gaitán, Technical Manager of the Colombian Coffee Growers Federation (FNC), said:

“As a grower-led institution, FNC is focused on building the next generation of capabilities Colombian coffee producers will need to compete globally. Better, more timely farm intelligence is central to that vision. We are engaging with Wingsure to explore how its technology can complement FNC’s existing capabilities and help strengthen the coffee ecosystem for Colombian growers.”

FNC’s existing Coffee Information System, known as SICA, already provides georeferenced and socioeconomic information across Colombia’s coffee sector. The current engagement with Wingsure is exploratory and should not be interpreted as a completed commercial partnership or confirmed technical integration.

From the agricultural risk and insurance sector, Madhukar Sinha, President – Govt & Rural Business at Tata AIG General Insurance Company Ltd., said:

“Agricultural insurance has an important role to play in building farmer resilience, but achieving that at scale requires a much clearer and more timely understanding of what is actually happening at the farm. Wingsure’s approach is compelling because it connects verified field evidence with the intelligence needed for risk assessment and decision-making. The ability to create a trusted, continuously developing record of the farm can be valuable not only for insurance, but across the broader agricultural ecosystem. We believe Wingsure is addressing an important challenge with technology that has the potential to operate at a meaningful scale.”

Tata AIG’s official corporate information identifies the insurer as a joint venture between the Tata Group and American International Group and includes rural and agricultural insurance among its general-insurance offerings.

The COFFEA™ launch builds on Wingsure’s work in agricultural technology involving farm-level information, crop assessment and insurance-related applications. SRI previously documented Wingsure’s use of computer vision and geospatial analysis for crop assessment as part of its agricultural technology platform.

Within the coffee sector, COFFEA™ extends that technology foundation toward applications involving farm records, sourcing, production, sustainability and agricultural risk. The platform is designed so that observations, interventions and seasonal information can contribute to a developing farm record rather than requiring a separate evidence base for each new program or analysis.

Following the September 28 launch, Wingsure participated in two coffee-industry gatherings in Switzerland: the Global Coffee Platform’s 10th Anniversary Celebration in Geneva on September 30 and the Swiss Coffee Trade Association’s 17th Forum & Dinner in Montreux on October 1–2.
