FLIGHT SEARCH FLIGHT STATUS ROUND THE WORLD STARALLIANCE.CH

Dear Mr. Wipraechtiger,

Biometrics are becoming the new normal in the industry. In order to stay on top of this development, the Star Alliance Experience team is working on an interoperable solution that will allow members of frequent flyer programmes of Star Alliance member to enrol their biometric identity once and use it multiple times, enabling them to navigate through the various touchpoints seamlessly and hands-free at participating . Upon customer consent, a selfie will replace the -pass at check-in, bag drop, lounge and boarding , which will not only significantly improve the customer journey, but also help our member airlines increase their efficiency at participating hubs.

In NEC Corporation, global leader in IT, we have found a strong partner to take on this project, for which design workshops are currently taking place. By the first quarter of 2020 we will see the premiere of the facial recognition technology at one of our member hubs.

Best regards

Regula Kunz

Star Alliance Coordinator Switzerland
