Travelport GDS to Provide Online Airline Check-in Through ViewTrip

Travelport GDS is partnering with a number of airlines in the coming months to provide travelers using Travelport GDS ViewTrip with access to an online check-in feature. The move is in line with providing airlines a more flexible and efficient service. Six airlines –British Airways, Delta Airlines, Frontier, Midwest Airlines, SWISS, bmi and Virgin Atlantic- currently offer the online check-in tool via Travelport’s ViewTrip, which allows their customers to conveniently check-in over the internet.

Online check-in via ViewTrip assists airlines by easing lengthy check-in queues and reduces the costs and resources associated with providing personnel to manage passenger check-in at the airport.

Passengers are provided a single, more convenient and time-saving check-in facility for all airlines participating in ViewTrip online check-in. Other services currently available on Travelport GDS ViewTrip include an online itinerary, flight and gate information, weather update, maps and driving directions.
