Airtran Installs Self-Service Check-in Kiosks
AirTran Airways has installed new ByePassSM kiosks, self-service check-in
units that will expedite the check-in process at its hub in Hartsfield
Atlanta International Airport. By using the kiosks, customers in Atlanta
can check-in for their flights, select seat assignments, receive A-Plus
frequent flier credits, and obtain boarding passes, all in an average
time of less than two minutes.
Through a partnership with Kinetics, Inc., the premiere provider of enterprise
and self-service technology to the U.S. airline industry, AirTran Airways
now offers twelve ByePass kiosks near ticket counters in Atlanta. ByePass,
which utilizes Kinetics TouchPort technology, allows passengers to bypass
ticket counter lines by electronic check-in through a touch-sensitive
screen. By the end of June, the airline will have more than 200 ByePass
kiosks installed throughout its network.
Additionally, Airtran now offers Internet check-in abilities. To access
all carrier’s online check-in links, visit the NTM
Client Gateway and click on “Online
Airline Check-in,” which is listed under the Technology category.
