Your fingerprints can now get you into a Delta airport lounge
Increasingly, passengers' fingerprints and faces are replacing boarding passes. Delta Air Lines is using the former in an attempt to whisk passengers through a checkpoint for its 50 domestic Delta Sky Clubs, it said Monday. The airline is working with Clear, a biometric technology company in which it has a minority stake, to implement the service following a pilot program. The program is free for Delta Sky Club members who are US citizens or permanent residents and it is optional. Travellers using the lounge generally have to show a boarding pass or membership card. Current members of Clear, a biometric security platform that scans travellers’ fingerprints and gives users dedicated security lane for $179 a year, can use their fingerprints on file to get into lounges immediately. <br/>
