Hyderabad International Airport to introduce contactless terminal entry once lockdown ends

Hyderabad International Airport is deploying contactless entry at the airport terminal for the safety of passengers once it resumes operations post the Covid-19 lockdown.

While the new norms of social distancing are in place, the airport has added contactless entry. Under the process, instead of handing over the physical documents — travel itinerary and government photo ID card — to a CISF personnel for verification, a passenger will now be required to display the documents onto a high-definition camera installed at each gate of the domestic departure terminal.

The output of the camera will be verified by the CISF personnel from a specially designed computer monitor kept at a safe distance from the passengers. Upon document check and satisfaction of the CISF personnel, the passenger will be allowed inside the terminal building for check-in and other processes.
