New iPad MHkiosk deployed at Malaysian airport

Kuala Lumpur—Malaysia Airlines (MAS) customers using the newly launched iPad MHkiosk will get a waiver on the administrative fee for travel during the six-month pilot project period, as reported by bernama.com.

The iPad MHkiosk enables users to book and purchase flights, search for flight schedules and flight status, check in as well as choose their preferred seat. (Watch a demonstration.)

MAS also is introducing 12 traditional self check-in kiosks, with six in Kuching and another six in Kota Kinabalu. The kiosks employ touchscreen technology and are equipped with passport and card readers for instant passenger recognition. They print 2D barcode boarding passes.
