The Delhi airport has installed e-boarding gates across all three terminals for contactless and seamless travelling amid the coronavirus disease (Covid-19) pandemic. GMR Group-led Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) said it has rolled out the e-boarding facility for department passengers across all flights. The gates have been set up at Terminal 3 and Terminal 2 and the installation at Terminal 1 is underway.
The contactless e-gates, empowered by touchless technologies and boarding card scanners, allow passengers to flash their physical or e-boarding cards and verify their flight details. After the verification process at the e-gates, the air travellers can proceed to security checks. Passengers carrying wide luggage or reduced mobility (PRM) can pass through it easily, and those carrying only hand baggage can walk through the normal lane e-gates, according to the company.
“Passengers who have verified their boarding passes by scanning at the e-gates can simply walk past the e-boarding gates for security checks and then board a flight without having to show their documents again,” said DIAL.
