JetBlue is the latest airline to implement facial recognition technology and has expanded the service by eliminating the need for boarding passes and mobile devices. After British Airways and Delta Air Lines, JetBlue has become the latest carrier to adopt the emerging technology that uses biometrics in the aim of accelerating the check-in and boarding process.
The pilot program will test the paperless and deviceless self-boarding process on flights between Boston and Aruba this month -- billed as a first in self-boarding.
