6. PASSENGER PROCESSING<br />

This section focuses on the impact of <strong>BCBP</strong> on passenger processing. <strong>BCBP</strong> involves a change<br />

in the process, as the passenger is not required to be physically in the airport to check-in.<br />

Airlines will be interested to know when web checked-in passengers arrive at the airport.<br />

Governments are likely to ask for verification of the boarding document to ensure that the<br />

passenger going airside is actually on the airline’s passenger list. Several locations at an airport<br />

are impacted by <strong>BCBP</strong>.<br />

6.1. Check-in desk<br />

Passengers checked-in at home may check-in their bag at a traditional check-in counter or when<br />

available at a dedicated bag drop-off point (see fig. 59).<br />
