According to a statement from IGI Airport, passengers can avail of this facility by scanning their boarding pass and face, while presenting identification proof to the security staff stationed near the registration desk. Upon successful registration, passengers can experience seamless travel within the terminal, including areas such as the security check area and the boarding gates.

At present, the DigiYatra facility is available at Terminals 2 and 3 of the IGI Airport. Videh Kumar Jaipuriar, CEO, Delhi International Airport Limited, stated, "We have been continuously striving to enhance the passenger experience at Delhi Airport. This latest initiative will enable even those who are less tech-savvy to fully utilize DigiYatra and travel seamlessly.
