Paper Is OUT, Cell Phones are IN!
In a partnership with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), Delta Airlines has launched paperless mobile check-in. The new service is currently only available for domestic travel that departs from their main terminal at New York's LaGuardia Airport.
This means you can now check in and get past the TSA screeners using nothing more than your web-capable mobile (so keep it charged up!).
How it works:
Customers traveling in the U.S., checking in at LaGuardia may simply download their boarding pass to their mobile devices via delta.com and proceed directly to the airport security screening area.
Customers checking bags should drop their bags at the baggage drop counter location prior to proceeding to the security checkpoint.
At the security checkpoint, TSA will scan the electronic boarding pass, check the customer’s ID and process the customer through security.
Customers can then proceed to their departure gate, present their electronic boarding pass to the gate agent at boarding time and board with their designated zone.
