Doha Hamad
Fast Pass facial recognition at more than 700 touchpoints, Hamad International
Current reported state
Deployed · limited scope
SITA worked with Hamad International Airport and Qatar Airways on Fast Pass, a facial-recognition service introduced in July 2026. The programme covers more than 700 passenger touchpoints, with initial eligibility restricted to adult passengers departing Doha. This describes the announced scope and eligibility, rather than a measured improvement in passenger processing.
