Delhi Airport
E-boarding gates have now been installed at all three terminals of Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport. This new facility allows for faster and more seamless processing of departing passengers across all flights.
The contactless e-boarding gates have boarding card scanners, which allow passengers to flash their physical or e-boarding cards to verify flight details and once done, they can proceed for security checks.
The e-boarding gates have been installed at Terminals 3 and 2, while deployment at Terminal 1 is currently underway. The touchless approach reduces boarding time and increases traveller safety by minimising the touching of facility surfaces and people interaction.
