Airport Security of the Future

Travel Mole: This is what airport security of the future is set to look like.

Unveiled at the IATA’s annual meeting in Singapore this week, the three-lane checks would funnel fliers through based on their perceived security risk.

The three lanes would be classed as “known traveller," "normal" and "enhanced" security.

After presenting a passport or another document with a biometric identifier, travellers would be assigned to a lane based on "a risk assessment conducted by the government before the passenger arrives at the airport".
