British Airways, working with Los Angeles International Airport, Vision-Box and US CBP, is trialling biometric self-boarding for international flights.

The artificial intelligence system can provide automated answers to the most common questions without input from a human service agent.

The line-up of robots can perform a variety of tasks, ranging from helping to transport luggage to providing assistance with language translation.

Using Apple Maps on their iPhone or iPad, passengers can navigate through the airport and pinpoint shops, restaurants and other points of interest.

British Airways, Heathrow Airport, Geneva Airport, Miami International Airport and SITA Lab teamed up to explore the potential of blockchain.

The VisionAir system has a redundant, fault tolerant and geographically distributed architecture, and it optimises the data transfer required to keep the screens up to date.

The new apps allow passengers to find out the latest flight information, view boarding passes and check their MileagePlus account.

Cathay Pacific says the introduction of self-service technology at Gatwick Airport can reduce the check-in and bag drop process to less than 60 seconds.

During the Personal Security Pass pilot project, passengers on select flights can go online and reserve a specific time slot to go through security.

According to Air NZ Chief Digital Officer Avi Golan, applications of blockchain are developing rapidly and the airline is excited by the possibilities.

The team, who are fluent in both English and Mandarin, are on hand to assist customers at check-in, at the departure gate and on arrival in to Heathrow.

The chatbot, which will be available on Facebook’s Messenger platform, will offer 24/7 assistance to passengers before, during and after their trip.
