It will include 14 self-service kiosks and hybrid self-service automated bag drops 😯

Plans to modernise parts of Leeds Bradford Airport are now underway. Proposals for a new building were scrapped following a series of delays and a government call-in.

Construction will reconfigure check-in ‘Hall A’ which currently welcomes all passengers not using resident airline Jet2, BusinessLive reports. The work, underway now, will see the installation of 14 self-service kiosks and hybrid self-service automated bag drops, as well as four self-service check-in e-gates, all produced by self-service technology experts Elenium. A total of 14 traditional staffed check-in desks will also be installed, and the hall will be extensively refurbished.

It has been over six years since the airport last made an investment in passenger-focussed technology of this scale. Mr Hodder said the update is a significant step towards bringing LBA in line with the UK’s leading airports, at which self-service technology, and processes like biometric identification, are commonly deployed.
