Innovation in Air Transport with Atos Origin paperless tickets solution delivered via mobile phone


WEBWIRE

Paris - Atos Worldline, an Atos Origin Company, offers airline companies an innovative alternative to hard tickets for their customers on the move through its new mobile boarding passes solution. This paperless solution allows travelers to check in and receive a boarding pass directly on their mobile phones. A leading European airline company has already chosen Atos Worldline to design, develop and operate this service.

To access the service, passengers need simply to log onto the airline’s Internet mobile website, from which they have the possibility to check in, receive a boarding pass and access the full range of services via mobile phone. They can get real-time information on their flights, flight schedules, miles and more. The service gives travelers greater freedom thanks to 24/7 access and makes airline companies’ check-in management more flexible and responsive.

After completing the check-in process, passengers receive a message with a 2D barcode directly on their handsets. The barcode serves as the boarding pass and can be read by both security and airport/airline scanning equipment.


Atos Worldline implemented a comprehensive project for a leading European airline company involving the design, development and operation of the mobile website and the messaging platform (SMS, mobile e-mail and MMS).

The Atos Worldline solution complies with International Air Transport Association (IATA) directives and helps further a sustainable development approach. It fits in perfectly with Atos Origin’s strategy of innovation and paperless ticketing for the travel industry.
