Jaipur, Aug 6 (PTI) Passengers flying domestic from Jaipur airport will not be required to carry printout of their tickets and boarding pass with the launch of 'DigiYatra' programmme in the next few days. Under the programme, being launched under the Ministry of Civil Aviation, the Jaipur Airport will be equipped with Biometric Boarding System (Face Pods) for passengers to scan their details and bypass the cumbersome procedure.
The pods will eliminate the need for manual verification of tickets and identification documents at multiple check points, saving passengers their crucial time. The programme will initially start with only one dedicated entry route for passengers choosing the DigiYatra option, but will later be expanded, a spokesperson of the airport said.
The system will simplify check-in, security, and boarding processes for passengers, making the process faster and smoother, right from the time one enters the terminal building to when he or she boards the aircraft. Passengers opting to check-in through the DigiYatra will have to register either at the airport or through the Digi Yatra portal or download DigiYatra mobile App available both on iOS and Android platforms. Once registered, the passenger will receive a unique DY ID, which can be used for all future air travels across India. This DY ID will be linked to the passengers PNR number and will store all the data of the traveller on the DigiYatra portal.
