The statistics show that in 2016, China Southern transported around 280,000 passengers everyday, 40 percent of whom are accustomed to electronic Check-In.In order to provide a more convenient experience for passengers, China Southern, in cooperation with WeChat, released the boarding pass scanning service.

Once they get boarding passes, passengers can scan the code below, and quickly get updates and information on fl ights.Information available includes: scheduled departure time, boarding time, time of arrival, boarding gate, the weather in the place of departure and arrival, and so on.

This service can also be used to check the status of passengers' checked baggage, and the status can be detailed to spec ifi c procedures such as accepting and loading.This service has been pioneered by China Southern, and while it's only currently available in Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport, it will soon be rolled out to other airports.

Passengers can track the status of their baggage just like tracking parcels in the post.

The “Internet + Boarding Pass” Idea

“互联网+登机牌”概念

According to the project director, this service works by linking WeChat with China Southern's systems.WeChat QR-Code Scanning works only as the messenger for this information, pulling it directly from China Southern's systems, ensuringit's accurate and ef fi cient.It also means that passenger's personal information is kept secure.What's more, the service also adopts the idea“Internet+Boarding Pass” to provide a more convenient self-service for the passengers.This function will be further developed in the future.For instance, in a VIP Lounge, passengers can be linked to W ifi automatically.Moreover, if a passenger wants to become a member of Skypearl Club, the information will be immediately generated by scanning the code on the boarding pass in the future, saving them time. When passengers are faced with fl ight delays, they can also use the QR service as electronic proof in future for quicker service during the ticket refund or alteration process.
