Delta Air Lines Inc.is deploying facial-recognition technology to replace passports and tickets at Atlanta’s airport in a test that could lead to more widespread use of biometric identification for flyers.
The new system will be phased in on Oct. 15 at check-in kiosks, baggage-drop counters, security checkpoints and boarding lines for international flights in Terminal F of Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Delta said Thursday.
