Dubai Airport Considers `One-Stop' Passenger Check-in, Security for Speed - Bloomberg

Dubai World Central-Al Maktoum International, set to become the world’s largest airport, may use “one-stop” processing to get travelers in and out of aircraft more quickly.

Operator Dubai Airports has trialed Siemens AG technology that allows passengers to pass through check in, customs, immigration and security screening in one place, James Robinson, head of strategic planning, said at a conference in Sydney on July 28. Travelers usually go to different parts of an airport for each of these steps at present.

“It’s out there, it just needs to be driven forward,” Robinson said. The airport operator is deciding whether to implement the system, he said."
