BEIJING, Oct. 12, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Since being named the pilot carrier of IATA's "Easy Travel" project in 2009, Air China had made airport self check-in available to its passengers at Tokyo Narita Airport, Hong Kong Airport and Frankfurt Airport outside Mainland China.
On September 21, 2011, Air China added Tokyo Haneda Airport to the list. The user-friendly system, which features Chinese, English and Japanese, also supports transfer to other domestic Chinese cities via Beijing. It allows passengers to select their preferred seat, accrue Air China kilometers and print boarding pass, sparing them the trouble of having to queue in front of the traditional check-in counters.
