Travelers massively support biometrics at US airports 

09-09-24

Some 80% of travelers in the United States support the use of biometrics at airport security checkpoints, according to a recent survey. This growing support reflects a trend toward modernizing security processes, driven by the need to streamline passenger flow and increase efficiency without compromising security.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has been implementing biometric technologies at U.S. airports with the aim of reducing wait times and improving the traveler experience. These technologies include facial recognition, fingerprint scanning and iris reading, which allow passengers' identities to be verified more quickly and accurately than traditional methods.
