PRAT DE LLOBREGAT, BARCELONA CA, SPAIN - JANUARY 19: A young woman checks passengers' tickets at the boarding gate at El Prat airport on January 19, 2023, in El Prat de Llobregat, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. Vueling has already introduced a facial recognition system that allows passengers to avoid having to take their documents from the security checkpoint to board their flight, thus speeding up the boarding process. The company has defined itself as the "first airline" to develop voluntary facial recognition in Spain, a mechanism in operation at the airports of Barcelona, Madrid, Palma de Mallorca, Menorca and Ibiza.
