The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is proposing a digital travel credential (DTC) to replace traditional boarding passes with facial recognition technology. This initiative, currently being piloted in Finland, aims to enhance the boarding process by securely storing passport data on smartphones. With over 90% approval ratings in pilot tests, the DTC could significantly reduce check-in times and overall delays at airports. Each country will decide on the implementation, with some already experimenting with facial recognition technology. The overhaul represents a potential major shift in the airport experience for travelers globally.
