Vol V Issue I January 2019 GVK MIAL introduces e-boarding pass at T2 for domestic passengers Taking advantage of the latest technology, GVK MIAL’s CSMIA has become the first airport in the country to have eliminated boarding pass stamping for all domestic airlines operating out of Terminal 2. This is part of the ‘Digi Yatra’ proposed by the Ministry of Civil Aviation and the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security. Passengers travelling within the country from Terminal 2 can now authenticate their boarding pass at the pre- embarkation security checkpoint by scanning the boarding pass barcode or QR code on the mobile phones at the E-gates Reader, using the Live Passenger Dataset. This authentication of boarding pass will eliminate the responsibility of CISF personnel to check and stamp the boarding pass. Thus, it will save their time and improve the overall throughput of the security check procedure. This initiative by GVK CSMIA is a step towards adopting new technology and digitizing the travel experience of passengers, making it hassle-free.
