Three Hot Trends in Aviation

The role of airport kiosks has evolved far beyond printing boarding passes. From streamlining check-in to enhancing accessibility and even providing mobile, on-demand passenger services, kiosks are now central to delivering a smoother, more intuitive travel experience.

Our latest whitepaper, created in collaboration with Zebra Technologies and Kiosk Marketplace, explores the top three trends driving innovation in airport kiosk design—and what’s coming next.

  1. One-Step Check-In is Taking Off: Airports around the world are moving away from the traditional two-step check-in and bag-drop process, replacing it with a single, streamlined interaction. The result? Faster passenger flow, less congestion, and better use of terminal space.
  2. Accessibility at the Forefront: Accessibility is no longer an afterthought—it’s a design priority. From tactile interfaces and audio support to multilingual options and intuitive layouts, kiosks are being engineered to serve all passengers, regardless of ability, language, or digital access. With new legislation like the European Accessibility Act coming into effect, this shift is both a legal requirement and a customer service imperative.
  3. Portable, Flexible Solutions: The next generation of airport kiosks is mobile. Portable kiosks can be moved to where they’re needed most – whether that’s managing a sudden gate change, easing congestion at security, or supporting passengers during weather-related disruptions.
