FAQs

What barcode is on a plane ticket?2025-02-20T11:46:58+01:00

Airline tickets use a Bar Coded Boarding Pass (BCBP), which contains passenger and flight details. The barcode follows the IATA 2D Barcode Standard and is typically a PDF417 or QR code, depending on the airline and airport system. The onyScan BGR is designed to read all these barcode formats quickly and reliably, ensuring smooth passenger processing at check-in, security, and boarding gates.

What is the difference between a boarding gate reader and a standard barcode scanner?2025-02-20T11:45:50+01:00

A boarding gate reader (BGR) is specifically designed for airports and airlines, offering fast, reliable scanning of mobile and printed boarding passes. Unlike standard barcode scanners, the onyScan BGR integrates with airport systems (CUPPS & CUSS), provides multi-angle scanning, and features LED indicators and a high-resolution display for enhanced passenger guidance. Its robust design, space-saving form, and tool-free maintenance make it the perfect choice for efficient passenger processing.

Why are LEDs and a display good for user guidance?2025-02-20T11:49:19+01:00

The onyScan BGR features multicolor LEDs and a high-resolution display to provide instant visual feedback, making the boarding process faster and more intuitive. LEDs indicate scan success or errors with clear color signals, while the display can show instructions, branding, or even animations to guide passengers effortlessly. This ensures a smooth, stress-free experience at check-in and boarding, reducing confusion and improving overall efficiency.

What does CUPPS and DCS mean?2025-03-06T13:08:31+01:00

CUPPS (Common Use Passenger Processing Systems) and DCS (Departure Control Systems) are industry standards used in airports and airlines to streamline passenger processing.

  • CUPPS allows multiple airlines to use the same check-in counters, kiosks, and boarding gates, ensuring flexible and efficient operations across different carriers.
  • DCS is a system that manages passenger check-in, boarding, and flight departure, ensuring smooth coordination between airlines and airport staff.

All onysID products within the onySky product line, designed specifically for airlines and airports, are fully CUPPS and DCS compliant, ensuring seamless integration into airport and airline operations.
