Checkpoint of the Future

A full-scale model of IATA’s Checkpoint of the Future was displayed at the AGM in Singapore.

• The Checkpoint aims to improve security screening and introduce faster processing, while reducing costs.
• It replaces the “one size fits all” approach with tailored processes, making more efficient use of passenger data.
• Biometric readers at the entrance of the Checkpoint will check the travel document and identity of passengers.
• Based on pre-screening by the security authorities, passengers will be directed through one of three lanes:
  
• Known traveler
  
• Normal security
  
• Enhanced security
  
• Passengers will be processed with their cabin luggage, without having to remove clothing or unpack.
