Air India Partners with DMRC & DIAL for International Passenger Check-in

06 Jun 2024 CW Team

Travellers flying with Air India can now check in for their international flights at select metro stations in Delhi, thanks to the seamless integration of check-in facilities within the metro network. This innovative initiative eliminates the need for passengers to queue at the airport counters, reducing congestion and minimising wait times.

The collaboration leverages the extensive network of metro stations across Delhi, providing passengers with convenient access to check-in services closer to their departure points. By utilising the DMRC's robust infrastructure, Air India aims to offer passengers a smoother travel experience from the moment they step out of their homes.

This strategic partnership not only benefits passengers but also contributes to the overall efficiency of airport operations. By diverting some check-in processes to metro stations, airport terminals can alleviate congestion during peak hours, leading to improved passenger flow and reduced queuing times.

Key features of this collaboration include dedicated check-in counters at select metro stations, equipped with the necessary facilities to facilitate a seamless check-in process. Passengers can drop off their luggage and obtain boarding passes, allowing them to proceed directly to security checks upon reaching the airport.

In addition to enhancing passenger experience, this collaboration underscores Air India's commitment to innovation and customer-centricity. By leveraging existing infrastructure and forging strategic partnerships, Air India continues to set new benchmarks in the aviation industry, redefining travel convenience for millions of passengers.
