KOCHI: One in every three domestic departure passengers at Kochi airport is now entering the terminal using DigiYatra, airport officials told TNIE.
The development signals a rapid shift towards biometric passenger processing as India’s paperless airport travel platform crossed the 10-crore usage milestone nationwide.
During 2025-26, as many as 7,95,530 passengers used DigiYatra at terminal entry at the Kochi airport, averaging around 2,180 users a day. Since the platform’s rollout, over 1.7 million passengers have availed the facility, according to airport authorities.
The growing adoption comes amid rising passenger traffic at the airport. CIAL handled 1,14,42,583 passengers in 2025-26, registering a 2.2 per cent growth over the previous financial year and crossing the 10-million passenger mark for the fourth consecutive year despite airline operational constraints and geopolitical disruptions affecting parts of West Asia.
