Etihad launches mobile boarding passes
By admin


Etihad has introduced mobile boarding passes for guests travelling on selected routes.

The airline highlighted the benefits of the new program as an expanded range of check-in options, less paper consumption, a lower risk of boarding pass loss, and the ability to store multiple boarding passes on a single mobile device.

 “Our aim is to simplify and streamline the departure and boarding experience,” chief commercial officer Peter Baumgartner said.

“The elimination of paper boarding passes will be more convenient for our guests and reduce our environmental footprint, which is good for the guest, the business and for the environment.”

The service is currently available at Abu Dhabi, London Heathrow, Manchester, Doha, Colombo, Dammam, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Sao Paulo, Istanbul, Minsk, Munich, and Tokyo Narita.

It will roll out further as the airline installs the new electronic readers across its global network.
