Perth is claiming to be the first airport in Australia to deliver a biometric check-in process, using technology developed by Amadeus.
The biometric functionalities are designed to speed up the check-in process and provide a smooth and contactless passenger experience.
People traveling on selected airlines will be able to check in and opt for biometrics at self-service kiosks. Their passports and boarding passes will not be required for bag drop and boarding. Instead, a face scan will validate the passenger’s identity and retrieve their travel records.
The project will introduce 95 additional self-service check-in kiosks and 38 new automated bag drops, replacing 40 traditional check-in counters.
