NCR announces first deployment of its curbside airline check-in kiosks

September 16, 2009

According to an announcement from NCR Corp., US Airways will be the first airline to deploy NCR's TouchPort 80 outdoor passenger check-in kiosk. NCR says the airline will deploy 54 of the kiosks in 15 U.S. cities and St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands.
 
The TouchPort 80 features a rugged design for curbside deployment, with a water-resistant enclosure and an integrated thermoelectric device to regulate the kiosk's temperature.
 
Theresa Heinz, vice president and general manager of NCR Travel and Gaming, says the curbside kiosks will give US Airways an edge among consumers who have come to expect self-service wherever they go:
By extending the self-service convenience to travelers outside of the airport, US Airways is further differentiating itself among increasingly discerning consumers who expect to serve themselves how, where and when they choose.
NCR says its self-service check-in kiosks are installed at more than 300 airports globally.
