The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has
become a major hub for tourism &
trade resulting in a great increase
in the number of people visiting UAE
as a whole and Dubai in particular.
In order to keep up with this huge
growth, major airlines (led by
Emirates) had to increase their
flights and enlarge their operations
E-Gates integration with Emirates
Airline Systems is one of the most
successful projects undertaken by
DATEL. It is considered to be unique
of its kind and first to be
implemented in the world
Integration of Emirates Airlines
cabin crew system with E-Gate System
and its related Entry/ Exist systems
has enabled the exchange
of data
between all parties allowing for
instant availability of information
for relevant validation, therefore
facilitating in making better
critical business decisions.
Benefits for this
project includes :
Provide accurate
verification and validation of
travelling crews by ensuring
that only crews who are
scheduled to travel and have
clean immigration records can
travel
The solution is
capable enough of handling over
10,000 crews load or even double
or triple the load with great
efficiency and with great travel
concurrency
Saves huge
immigration processing time for
the crews
Cuts
down huge congestion of crews at
the briefing stations by
limiting crew access to facility
to only travelling crews within
specified time
Similarly, the
E-Gates deny access to terminal
any offloaded crew thereby
increasing security and business
compliance
The utilization
of finger prints on E-gates
ensures verification of cabin
crew’s identity
Allow instant
sharing of destination details
for the crew between EK and
DNRD systems
E-Gates
plays a key role in monitoring
the crew reporting time for
briefing thereby assist EK in
making critical decision to pull
another crew from standby lounge
to avoid flight delay
The previously
reserved gates for the crews at
the main Dubai airports are now
being used by the normal
passengers
The automated
solution has greatly cut down
manpower requirements and paper
work thereby shifting them from
the passport counters to more
effective and productive
responsibilities
