Mangalore Airport Is Now Touchless: Precaution Against Covid 19

October 8: Mangalore Airport, which has prioritized passenger safety due to covid 19, has implemented the ‘Touchless’ concept.
Mangalore Airport is also being transformed into a “paperless airport” to facilitate communication between passengers and people. Previously, passengers had to hand over boarding passes and documents to CISF officials before entering the station. Now the authorities inside the glass counter should be shown from the outside. Passengers’ baggage tags are not even provided with a copy; Available via SMS instead. “If you don’t have a boarding pass code, you can scan (without touching) the” barcode code on the mobile at the station’s kiosk. The camera is mounted on the inspection counter. The passenger must stand in front of the camera and show the boarding pass. The tray used for checking the passenger’s mobile, purse, etc., is not even touched by hand. The tray once used is sanitized before being reused. Earlier, airlines had scanned the boarding pass. Now the traveler must. If you have a boarding pass on a mobile, scanning it is sometimes difficult. Only then is every pass printed in the inevitable. There is no paper use at all. “Airlines are equipped with an air-conditioned” kit to assist passengers arriving in a wheelchair. Archana, Indigo Station Manager at the station, said, “The body gown is given to the passenger in the middle of the seat.
SpiceJet, Indigo and Air India flights are available from Mangalore. Prior to the lockdown, there were domestic flights to Bangalore 10, Hyderabad 2, Chennai 2, Mumbai 6 and New Delhi. They traveled to Dubai, Doha, Qatar, Sharjah, Bahrain, Kuwait and Muscat. But after the lockdown, there are 4 flights from Mangalore to Bangalore, 1 to Chennai, 1 to Hyderabad, 3 to Mumbai and 1 to New Delhi. Under the central government’s ‘Vande Bharat’ model, only special flights are currently traveling abroad.
Touchless system has been implemented at the station with the aim of reducing connectivity between passengers and people. Travelers can use the online booking and online baggage tag. Precautionary measures have been implemented in the interest of the passengers.
