Alaska Airlines is committed to providing its guests with a caring and seamless travel experience. This has led the airline to pursue innovations that enhance guests' experience throughout the travel process, from the time they are searching for flights to their day of travel. As part of this effort, Alaska has invested in redefining its check-in experience, with an emphasis on self-service, digital offerings that minimize time spent in the airport lobby, helping guests get to security in five minutes or less.
Jumio ID Verification is now fully integrated into the Alaska Airlines mobile app, enabling international travelers with U.S. and Canadian passports to verify their identity without standing in line at the check-in counter. This allows Alaska Airlines to establish the genuine identity of their guests — both individual travelers and multi-passenger itineraries — by verifying government-issued IDs in real time, automatically. Jumio offers the most comprehensive ID verification solution on the market, accepting and reliably verifying multiple types of government-issued IDs including passports, driver's licenses and ID cards. In total, Jumio supports more than 5,000 ID subtypes around the globe.
"We selected Jumio as the solution that best provides our guests with a seamless travel experience," said Natalie Bowman, vice president of digital experience at Alaska Airlines. "Through this partnership, guests can verify their travel documents directly in their Alaska Airlines app, saving time in the airport lobby and at their gate."
"We are proud to partner with Alaska Airlines to help travelers save time at the airport and to drive adoption rates for self-service ID verification," said Bala Kumar, chief product and technology officer at Jumio.
