Are you tired of waiting in long queues before entering airports? With heavy check-in luggage and handbags, the process can get a bit tedious and leave you restless. To resolve this issue and speed up the process, DigiYatra has been of significant help. The biometric-based system provides seamless biometric verification using facial recognition technology. It enhances the procedure of identification of passengers at the airport, which is contactless too. As of now, DigiYatra is rolled out at checkpoints in only 13 airports in India. Soon, the number will double.

This extraordinary initiative has been proven to cut down boarding times to a huge extent and simplify passengers’ experiences as well. The mobile app services provide hassle-free experiences. Also, the staff is present at many airports to assist travellers in case of any inconveniences. The entire process of entering an airport has never been easier and faster and the credit goes to the advanced facial recognition technology.
According to a report by The Financial Express, DigiYatra will soon be introduced at 14 airports. The airports are located in these Indian cities:
- Bagdogra
- Bhubaneswar
- Chandigarh
- Coimbatore
- Dabolim
- Indore
- Mangalore
- Nagpur
- Patna
- Raipur
- Ranchi
- Srinagar
- Trivandrum
- Vishakhapatnam
Previously, we all entered airports after the stationed authorities checked documents and tickets manually. However, the installation of DigiYatra has removed this process completely. Now, passengers do not need to carry all paper documents in hand with their bags while entering the airport gates. The biggest advantage of this biometric-based facility is offering contactless and paperless entry during check-in.
