Digi Yatra aims at creating a delightful and memorable digital travel experience. It is a fully biometric-based self-boarding solution for a seamless flow, from registration to boarding. Passengers are required to enrol using their ID and biometric data, combined with their flight details, before entering the Terminal. As the passenger journeys through the airport, their travel documents will no longer be required, as they will be authenticated and verified at every touchpoint by state-of-the-art biometric technology. Currently, this process is applicable to all passengers travelling through select flights departing from Gate-1 of Domestic Terminal- 1.
