CSMIA introduces ‘Integrated Security Check Point’ for travellers

Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) has introduced an ‘Integrated Security Check Point’ at Terminal 2. For the first time across any of the Indian airports, this unique Integrated security check point would witness all international and domestic passengers departing through T2, undergo common security clearance at Level 04 and move towards the designated e-gates.
All the departing passengers then proceed to their respective ‘Security Holding Area’ (SHA). CSMIA has been consistently working towards the adoption of solution-driven processes across the various operations throughout the airport to bring in ease of travel.
Earlier, security check of both domestic & international passenger was carried out at Level 3 and Level 4 of Terminal 2 respectively. Post integration, both domestic and international passengers will now move through any one set of e-gates installed at 05 different locations at the pre-security check area & will be separated via validation at another set of e-gates installed post-security check.
The introduction of the Integrated security check-in point is an opportunity for CSMIA to showcase the operational efficiency that could be brought in across airports through the adoption of transformative initiatives leading to smoother passenger flow and movements.
The Integrated security check point is a testament to CSMIA’s future-ready approach to airport operations and setting a precedent within the Indian aviation space.
Focusing on bringing in newer technology to further enhance the passenger throughput, CSMIA has also deployed and installed the Automatic Tray Retrieval System (ATRS) at the new Integrated Security Check Point.
CSMIA has deployed 13 ATRS – roller & sensor-based machines that are programmed to return luggage trays to the starting point after passengers collect their belongings.
The retrieval systems can circulate an average of 350 sanitized trays per hour, which will not only boost the processing time of passenger luggage check but also eliminate any manual intervention of the passenger or the staff.
