  • Facial recognition technology coupled with latest-generation automatic gates provides for a smooth, seamless and secure airport experience that factors in current social distancing requirements.

  • A one-year trial will be conducted starting October 15, 2020 for inter EU flights. Passengers departing from Lyon Saint-Exupéry Airport to Portugal on TAP and Transavia flights will be first to enjoy this contactless option.
