Digi Yatra, an government initiative to make passenger movement smoother and faster from entry points till they sit inside the aircraft by the digitization of passenger movement using the DIGI YATRA App.
It will be implemented in checkpoints such as Entry, Security areas, and Aircraft boarding gates.
When Passenger reached the terminal building and at the entry point, he/she needs to show a Boarding pass or E-ticket (either physical or on-mobile). After that using the Bar Code scanner will scan the barcode on the Boarding pass or E-ticket to retrieve the details such as date of travel, flight number, passenger name, and departing and arrival airport name.
Working of the Digi Yatra App in short, Here come the role of the Digi Yatra App comes into the picture here it is used to verify the identity of passengers by Facial Recognition using an App and after that, while proceeding towards the security check, boarding gate passengers will get entry using Facial Recognition System no need to show the documents again and again. That will help in the fast and smooth movement of passengers with less Human interaction and a fast process.
Ministry of civil aviation Digi Yatra is successfully implemented in Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad, and some Airport Authority Operated Airports.
But it is not compulsory to use during Air Travel in India. It is Voluntary only.
