EMIRATES is introducing facial recognition technology to shorten passengers' waits at immigration and check-in counters, a move that comes as the US revives a ban that could complicate air travel from the Middle East.
Passengers will be able to upload biometric details such as "selfies" to their smartphones, and use the data to scan through boarding gates and other checkpoints at Emirates' Dubai hub, the carrier said in a statement.
