Emirates now offers Dubai passengers the option of receiving a mobile boarding pass on their internet-enabled mobile device.The service is available to all passengers who use Emirates’ online check-in facility out of Dubai up to 24 hours in advance.
Passengers can log on to emirates.com, and can choose to receive a web-link to their mobile boarding pass by email or SMS, that displays a barcoded boarding pass on their phone.
“The launch of Emirates’ mobile boarding pass not only supports paperless travel and the reduction of paper waste, but also meets the demands of a new era of travellers, who seek a more sophisticated and efficient means of managing their business and leisure travel,” said Mohammed H Mattar - Divisional Senior Vice President Airport Services, Emirates.
“The mobile boarding pass puts flexibility and control completely in the hands of our customers, while making a small step towards reducing our environmental impact.” he added.
