“US Airline Trials Boarding Technology to Deter Line Cutters: 1News”

In a groundbreaking move to combat line-cutting and improve the boarding process, a US airline has begun testing new technology that publicly shames passengers who try to sneak ahead in the boarding queue.

The airline, which has not been named, has installed cameras at the boarding gate that scan passengers’ faces and compare them to their boarding passes. If a passenger is caught trying to board out of turn, their face is displayed on a screen for all to see, along with a message reminding them to wait their turn.

According to the airline, the technology has already proven to be effective in deterring line-cutters and speeding up the boarding process. Passengers have been seen hesitating before attempting to jump ahead in the queue, knowing that they could be publicly called out for their actions.

While some passengers have expressed concern about the potential invasion of privacy, others have welcomed the new technology as a way to ensure fairness and order in the boarding process.

The airline has not yet announced whether the boarding shaming technology will be implemented permanently, but if successful, it could revolutionize the way passengers board flights in the future.
