IER to roll out self-check-in kiosks at Stockholm-Arlanda Airport
June 2, 2009
SURESNES CEDEX, France — IER, a France-based designer and manufacturer of self-service ticketing and boarding-control solutions for major transportation networks, has been selected by Swedish airport operator LFV Group to deploy IER's new-generation self-check-in kiosks at Stockholm-Arlanda Airport.
According to a news release, the complete self-check-in solution, including 45 IER 918 kiosks, will be deployed at the airport over the next three years.
The IER 918 is the latest generation of common-use self-service kiosks and is designed to meet the new challenges of passenger travel and to take advantage of emerging trends, such as e-ticketing, 2D bar-coded boarding passes and the ability to read e-passports and to check-in airline passengers with or without bags.
The solution also will include the IER CUSS platform and monitoring system and an Internet check-in platform. The IER monitoring system will allow LFV to supervise its kiosk operations by providing a real-time overview of the entire installation.
A first rollout of 10 kiosks is planned by mid-August. They will be equipped with a full-page passport reader, 2D barcode and card readers, a boarding pass printer and a fingerprint scanner and will offer self-check-in to passengers traveling with Delta, Finnair, HögaKustenFlyg, Norwegian and several charter companies.
