Now security checking at Raipur airport will be done in 1 minute / At Swami Vivekananda Airport, passengers would no longer have to endure protracted security procedures. According to what is being said, the Digi air travel experiment will begin on Monday, April 15, and it will be completely implemented in the days that follow. However, only Vistara Airlines customers will be able to use the Digi air travel service as IndiGo Airlines’ website is allegedly down, which is why the airline has declared that the self-baggage drop and Digi travel services would not be accessible for the time being.
Aviation authorities claim that passengers would have a much easier time getting through airport security with the use of this face recognition technology-based Digi Yatra. Individuals won’t have to endure a protracted inquiry procedure. Director of Swami Vivekanand Airport SD Sharma announced that Digi Yatra’s trial would begin on Monday when all preparations are finished. Vistara Airlines is the company that is currently providing the service.
14 more airports are planned.
Information indicates that the Digi Yatra service, which will be introduced to facilitate air travel, would also begin operations in 14 new airports across the nation. Furthermore, in 2025, 11 additional airports will be added.The airports are in the following cities: Visakhapatnam, Chandigarh, Ranchi, Nagpur, Patna, Raipur, Bhubaneswar, Coimbatore, Indore, Bagdogra, and Srinagar.
An increase in app usage
To use the Digi Yatra service, passengers must also download the Digi Yatra app to their smartphones.There are rumors that the government is also planning to launch Namangan, an e-passport based program that will help international nationals with Digi Yatra. The data indicates a sharp rise in Digi Yatra app usage between December 2022 and November 2023. The time spent at the boarding gate and admission has decreased thanks to the app. December 2022 saw the start of the Digi Yatra.
These airports’ services
Currently, Delhi, Bengaluru, Varanasi, Kolkata, Vijayawada, Pune, Mumbai, Cochin, Ahmedabad, Lucknow, Jaipur, and Guwahati are the locations where Digi air travel is available. Encrypted data is supplied for Digi Yatra. The traveller has the opportunity to sign up using their Aadhaar number. Make sure you include your details and images. Once the boarding pass has been scanned, the airport receives your information.
Passengers choose to use Digi travel at their own discretion.
The passenger’s first time scanning a coded boarding pass will be at the airport e-gate. The passenger’s identification and travel papers will be verified by the e-gate’s Facial Recognition System. The passenger can only enter the airport via the e-gate after the procedure is finished. Passengers’ ability to travel by plane will still be entirely optional, though.
