Ticketing kiosks included in USA Today's top-10 travel milestones

August 26, 2007

MCLEAN, Va. — USA TODAY turns 25 years this September. As part of its celebration, the newspaper says it will look back at the top 25 travel milestones, from online booking and paperless tickets to TSA screening lines. The travel landscape has shifted dramatically over the past quarter century, says USA TODAY's travel team.
 
Self-service ticketing kiosks were named the No. 10 milestone. The kiosk officially began cropping up in airports in 1994, although Southwest had a rudimentary self-ticketing machine as early as 1979.
