Construction will reconfigure check-in ‘Hall A’ which currently welcomes all passengers not using resident airline Jet2, BusinessLive reports. The work, underway now, will see the installation of 14 self-service kiosks and hybrid self-service automated bag drops, as well as four self-service check-in e-gates, all produced by self-service technology experts Elenium.
