As explained by the TSA, when implementing new technologies in airports of the future, coordination between government and industry stakeholders is vitally important.
As airlines increasingly explore offsite and automated check-in, the traditional process has been placed under threat, raising the question: ‘Is check-in dead?’
Check-in 2010 will see a keynote presentation from Todd Grace, Strategy Manager – Airports, Air New Zealand, addressing the airline’s experiences of the value of a self-service strategy. He believes that the writing is very clearly on the wall that the days of the traditional check-in experience are numbered, as he explained to Ross Falconer.
As part of the ongoing Simplifying the Business (StB) initiative, the International Air Transport Association’s (IATA) Fast Travel programme is rapidly progressing, attracting global support from airlines, airports and passengers alike. Ryan Ghee spoke to Stephan Copart, project manager, Fast Travel – IATA.

Ross Falconer reports on progress and the next steps.
Common-use bag drops are emerging at the airport as an extension of the self-service experience – transferring more control away from the airline agent into the hands of the passenger. Louise Driscoll reports on the benefits and challenges for the industry.
The evidence suggests mobile will become the dominant form of check-in. Sales of internet-ready Smart Phone devices continue to grow at a significant pace – around 30% year-on-year.
