NCR making Air Travel Check-in easier with Mobile Check-in

The new Mobile Phone Check-in/E-boarding pass technology rolling out across the country—just in time for the busy spring and summer travel seasons— Mobile Phone Check-in/E-boarding pass technology allows travelers to use mobile phones to check-in to their flight and receive an e-boarding pass on their phone that they can scan at the gate and board. Even more, Boston’s Logan Airport is among the growing number of airports with this new capability.

This is just one of the many new “self-service” options available to travelers in airports. Self-service technology is making air travel increasingly efficient for travelers and we are quickly approaching a time when we can complete an entire travel journey by using self-service all the way--airport to rental car to hotel and back! NCR, the leading provider of self-service solutions, has some tips, statistics and a travel and transportation expert to provide insight on how self-service may be the answer to a less hectic travel journey.

• Mobile check-in, how it works:
  • Using any web-enabled mobile device, passengers can check-in to flights within 24 hours of departure
  • Passengers will receive a 2D bar code on their mobile device which is the passenger’s e-boarding pass
