Automated Airline Check-Ins

AirlineCheckins is a New Tech Tool from German Airline Lufthansa

— March 8, 2016 — World
AirlineCheckins is a new tech-powered travel tool that will automatically schedule check-ins for travelers ahead of time. The innovative AirlineCheckins was developed by the German airline's tech development division, known as the Lufthansa Innovation Hub, and is free for users.

AirlineCheckins works by first administering a personal email address to each user, which they then use the next time they book a flight. When the user loops AirlineCheckins in on their travel plans, the website automatically schedules the flight and is usually able to check in a user the second the flight becomes available to do so.

The innovative check-in tool from Lufthansa is an example of the continued desire on the part of consumers to outsource mundane, predictable tasks in order to reclaim previously spent time for themselves.
Trend Themes
1. Automated Check-ins - The trend of automating check-in processes in the airline industry presents an opportunity for airlines to streamline operations and improve customer experience.

3. Outsourcing Mundane Tasks - The trend of consumers outsourcing mundane tasks like check-ins reflects an opportunity for businesses to create time-saving solutions that improve efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Industry Implications
