Thiruvananthapuram airport experiences increased DigiYatra users daily

Thiruvananthapuram International Airport reports over 1,000 daily users of the DigiYatra facility, which allows passengers to check in and board flights using biometrics instead of paper boarding passes. The DigiYatra initiative, recently launched after a trial period, aims to provide a paperless travel experience using facial recognition technology. This system enhances efficiency and security by verifying identities through biometric data. To support passengers, the airport has introduced "Digi buddies" to assist with navigation and app downloads. The facility helps reduce congestion, especially during peak morning hours, as flight operations are limited due to runway maintenance.
