KLIA to use facial recognition in place of boarding pass

PETALING JAYA: Passengers travelling through Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) will soon be able to use facial recognition technology in place of a boarding pass.

Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) said the initiative utilises facial recognition technology to provide passengers with one single-token biometric identification authentication that will take them through the entire airport journey without having to show their boarding passes at all touchpoints from check-in right until the boarding gates.
