RFID At Airports

 

At the Airport
RFID is being used in some of the world’s busiest airports to improve customer service by:

  • Providing automated baggage handling and tracking
  • Authenticating ID documents
  • Providing access control to airport security areas

Because of the volume of traffic through the busiest airports around the world, even a small incremental time savings translates into cost savings for the airports.

Registered Traveler – Some of the US busiest airports offer Clear - the fast pass for airport security. Clear members are pre-screened and provided with a high-tech card which allows them to access designated airport security fast lanes nationwide. Clear members pass through airport security faster, with more predictability and less hassle.

U.S. Passport Card – The Passport Card is a convenient, wallet-sized document for land and sea travel between the United States and Mexico, Canada, the Caribbean, and Bermuda. It is not valid for international travel by air.
