As the civil aviation sector has started growing by 20%, airport infrastructure needs to cope up. It aims to transform the flying experience for passengers and position Indian Aviation amongst the most innovative aviation networks in the world. The facility will use digital technology to enhance air passenger experience all the way from ticket booking to airport entry check, security check and aircraft boarding. For this a passenger needs to enrol in to DigiYatra program through AirSewa app and a DigiYatra verified passenger will get hassle free entry at airport through E-Gates. The DigiYatra programme is expected to be initially rolled out at airports in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Varanasi and Vijayawada.
