16.45-17.15 Replacing boarding cards/speeding up passenger flow with<br />
fingerprint recognition<br />
Steen Munch Schmidt, director, solution sales, Precise Biometrics<br />
Solutions, Sweden<br />
The desire to achieve high passenger throughput <strong>and</strong> time-efficiency for travellers is<br />
contradicted by regulations, security <strong>and</strong> identification directives imposed on the aviation<br />
industry. In airports, a basic check of identity is only performed at check-in <strong>and</strong> the boarding<br />
card is re-checked against this identity only at boarding. Documentary control is costly in<br />
terms of time <strong>and</strong> personnel, <strong>and</strong> can be perceived as intrusive by the passenger. Fingerprint<br />
solutions allow a passenger to be securely <strong>and</strong> rapidly linked to his record <strong>and</strong> associated<br />
luggage during the entire passage through the airport, to ensure complete traceability<br />
throughout the process, while retaining privacy. Sc<strong>and</strong>inavian Airlines is using such a system<br />
with 10 million passengers annually in Sc<strong>and</strong>ianvia.<br />
