IN THE FIRST OF ITS KIND in Africa, Lanseria International Airport has implemented the Tap-and-Fly E-Gate system, a revolutionary approach to airport check-ins that leverages contactless technology and automation.
On 19 November, SA Flyer was invited to the launch where attendees were allocated personal boarding passes in order to experience this system in action.
The CEO of Lanseria, Mr Rampa Rammopo, introduced the Vice President of Turkish company TAV technologies, Mr Itker Aksoy, who presented an overview of the benefits that this revolutionary contactless system offers for passengers, airports, and airlines alike. The most significant benefit is that it reduces wait times at check-in and security checkpoints.
