    FlightsChannel Extends Business Class Discounts to Spanish-Speaking Travelers

    FlightsChannel is online to help you with booking your flights to domestic and international destinations. They offer flights in all available cabins including economy, premium economy, business, and first class. They have recently come up with an offer for their passengers interested in Business class flights (Vuelos en clase ejecutiva). You just need to call them and mention the coupon code FCBUSINESS to avail of discounts of up to 25 percent on air ticket prices. This discount has been offered keeping their customers in Latin America in mind, who will be looking for cheaper alternatives for their flights.
    The amount you pay for airfare varies from one cabin to another. The seats in economy cabins are the cheapest and the ones in first class are the most expensive. In the middle, there are the business class seats. Business class and first class seats are not offered by low-cost airlines and these are available more on international routes than on domestic routes. There will be flights with business class seats but no first class seats which are much more expensive, so the airlines use their aircraft with these seats when they believe there will be enough passengers interested in them, like those over long-haul routes.
    The business class seats have most of the comforts that are offered in the first-class cabin. Usually, the air ticket cost will include baggage charges and you will have larger allowances for these. You will have large comfortable seats which can be extended into comfortable beds. You will have more attention from flight attendants with fewer seats in the cabin and you will be offered a menu to choose what you would like for meals and beverages. This also means that these don’t come cheap. So, FlightsChannel has come up with this discount offer, so you can experience this fine way of flying without paying excessively.
    Every time you plan a trip, you will find that the flights eat up a large part of your planned budget. So, if you can get your flights for less, you will have more to spend on other activities and items. It is widely believed that you will reach your destination more relaxed and refreshed when traveling in this cabin than in the cheaper ones. As the name suggests these seats are booked more by those in big business, as they will have the funds to afford these. Here they are lowering the rates through discounts so more of you can afford them.
    FlightsChannel has been in the air ticket-selling business for a few years and they know that most customers will prefer to fly for less, no matter what they can afford. They recently launched their Spanish site and these discounts can be considered as introductory offers for those who are using their website for the first time. Though their regular customers too can enjoy the benefits of this offer.ADVERTISEMENT

    Zayed International Airport Revolutionizes Passenger Experience with IDEMIA’s Biometric Solutions

    In a landmark achievement for air travel technology, Zayed International Airport has successfully processed over one million passengers through Abu Dhabi’s new terminal since its inauguration on 15 November 2023. This marks a significant milestone in the journey towards enhanced travel efficiency and security, showcasing the power of cutting-edge biometric technology.
    Building on a long-term commitment to advancing airport capabilities, IDEMIA has been at the forefront of innovation in the UAE since 2011. The deployment of a comprehensive border management solution at Abu Dhabi Airport, featuring the world’s first multi-biometric entry/exit system, has significantly bolstered border security while simultaneously enhancing the passenger experience and throughput. The success of this groundbreaking project has led to its extension to the country’s four other international airports.
    The Single Token Journey (STJ) solution, a highlight of this collaboration, employs advanced facial recognition technology to streamline the passenger experience. By assigning a unique digital identifier to every traveler, the STJ solution eliminates the need for multiple documents, enabling passengers to move from curb to gate, including the border clearance step, in a record time of just 12 minutes.
    Elena Sorlini, MD and CEO, Zayed International Airport said: “The initial rollout of cutting-edge biometrics at Zayed International Airport underscores our dedication to enhancing airport experiences through innovation and technology, ensuring efficiency, convenience, and superior service. Once fully implemented, Abu Dhabi will pioneer as the world’s first airport with biometrics integrated at every stage, ensuring travelers enjoy a seamless, safe, and secure journey.”
    Osama Al Makhamreh, Vice President, Sales – Middle East & Africa, IDEMIA Public Security commented on this achievement: “We are thrilled to witness the transformative impact of our biometric solutions at Zayed International Airport’s new terminal. This milestone is not just a testament to our successful collaboration with Zayed International Airport but also a clear indicator of our commitment to enhancing the travel experience through innovation. The processing of over one million passengers since November is a significant achievement for us, and it underscores the scalability, security, and efficiency of the STJ solution. Together, we are setting a new global standard for passenger facilitation.”ADVERTISEMENTThis innovative approach not only enhances security but significantly improves the overall passenger experience. The success of the STJ solution at Zayed International Airport marks a pioneering step towards transforming air travel across the Middle East and potentially the world.
    The initiative aligns with Zayed International Airport’s commitment to adopting cutting-edge technologies that streamline the travel process, reinforcing the UAE’s position as a leading hub for technological advancement and superior passenger facilitation.
