The Lucknow airport announced on Sunday that it has established a virtual chamber to ensure quicker clearance of visitors’ hand luggage, omitting the need for travelers’ actual presence to check any forbidden items.
At the Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport, the audio-video communication system has been erected next to gate 1 in the domestic terminal 2 security holding area.
Without going to the In-Line Baggage Screening (ILBS) area, passengers can use the virtual reunion room (VRR). To remove any restricted or forbidden items from their luggage.
Virtual Room at Lucknow Airport
“In the past, passengers had to check their checked bags at level 4 and have any prohibited or restricted items taken out. With the installation of VRR, the airport will now be able to expedite the level-4 clearance of the baggage from ILBS. According to a statement from a spokesman for Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport (CCSIA).
The representative explained, “The audio-video process will be carried out with the passenger’s cooperation. Subsequently, his or her luggage will be opened safely, and the restricted/prohibited item will be removed.”
The airline representative will obtain the passenger’s keys if the luggage is locked. Further, they will go to ILBS to carry out the procedure and then return the passenger’s keys. Subsequently, this procedure will be recorded in both audio and video.
The spokeswoman said that the airline employees are currently receiving training. Subsequently, Training is provided by the CCSIA’s ILBS team on how to use the virtual check procedure.
