Comment on Boarding passes and check-in could be scrapped in air travel shake-up
IDKWhatUsernametoPutHereLolol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 week agoY’all know the: “Please remove item from the bagging area” “Please wait for an attendent”
But instead of self-check-outs, its airport security.
“Face not recognized, please wait for an agent”
You’ll wait 5 hours, you get strip-searched by border agents, and your plane already left, and no refunds.

To be fair the bagging area issue is usually caused by a bad configuration, and usually weight based, not camera recognition.

I think the lesson to be learned is that everything works in the demo (except when it doesn’t), but when it’s deployed to thousands of sites by the cheapest contractors, operated by untrained and unmotivated personnel, and not calibrated or maintained over its lifetime… the reliability goes down a bit.
