PASSENGERS DEPARTING FROM DUBAI AIRPORTS WILL BE ABLE TO REGISTER FOR A 20 SECONDS FLIGHT AND FORGET THE QUEUE FOR PASSPORT CONTROL. So, here they begin to introduce a new system of registration for flights, passport control and pre-flight screening, it will significantly reduce the time spent by passengers at airports. Solving the problems of optimizing pre-flight and post-flight procedures at airports is very important for Dubai, the number of passengers at airports of which is growing every year. By the number of international passengers (almost 69 million), the first Dubai airport has already become the largest in the world, bypassing London Heathrow, and the second airport, after completion of the initial development plan, will serve up to 160 million passengers a year.
The new passenger service system will reduce the time of check-in for a flight up to 20 seconds. Having scanned the passenger’s passport, the system will instantly process the information, conduct a risk analysis and issue a permission to board the plane or refuse the passenger in it. In addition, as early as next weekend, a joint database of immigration departments and passport control points in the UAE begins to work, and Sharjah will join it last (in summer). The retinal scan procedure, which takes time from tourists and people entering the UAE for the first time, will also be simplified. In addition, a new pre-flight search system will be tested at Dubai airports in the summer. Passengers will no longer have to remove their belts and lay out their bags and telephones on the scanner tape - new equipment will check the passenger and his hand luggage for dangerous items when passing through the scanner frame.
