With its implementation, now a domestic passenger flying from the airport will need only a mobile e-boarding card and his Aadhaar card number to gain entry into the airport.
Rajiv Gandhi International Airport here, run by GMR Hyderabad International Airport (GHIAL) group, has become the first airport in the country to go live with e-boarding facility for all domestic passengers.
After getting the approval from bureau of civil aviation security under the civil aviation ministry in August 2015, GHIAL implemented the e-boarding process. The facility was inaugurated by civil aviation minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju.
With its implementation, now a domestic passenger flying from the airport will need only a mobile e-boarding card and his Aadhaar card number to gain entry into the airport. However, the system is equally compatible with other conventional modes as well as one can use the boarding card issued by CUSS machine or check-in counters also.
