  • Thai begins using mobile 2D barcode boarding passes

    Thai Airways International Public Company Limited (THAI) announced that electronic boarding passes issued on smartphones will be used in lieu of paper boarding passes, which will be introduced on domestic flights departing from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Chiang Mai and Phuket, effective 1 August 2012. Electronic boarding passes, using the two dimensional “Mobile 2D Barcode Boarding Pass,” will reduce check-in counter processes, increase passenger convenience, and to protect the environment.
    Mr. Danuj Bunnag, THAI Managing Director of the Ground Service Business Unit, said that THAI will begin using the E-Boarding Pass or electronic boarding passes, which is accessible on smartphones or mobile computers enabled for multimedia messaging service (MMS). Passengers may obtain their Mobile 2D Barcode Boarding Pass when they access https://m.thaiairways.com and enter their reservation code under the tab “Check-in.” Passenger information will be displayed on the passenger’s smartphone, whereby the passenger must input their mobile phone number and specify the mobile service provider. Thereafter, the passenger will receive a mobile boarding pass by MMS. The secure barcode on the electronic boarding pass will be scanned at the baggage drop-off point at the airport, when presented at security checkpoints, scanned at the boarding gate when shown with an identification card, and shown to cabin crew prior to entering the aircraft.
