West Air (PN) has introduced its first self-service check-in kiosk at Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport (CKG), marking a start of self-service deployed by Chinese low-cost airlines.

A brand new self-service check-in kiosk is now deployed at 01/02 counter of 2D in T2B of Chongqing airport, which could offer check-in, boarding check print, bag tagging, overweight luggage charge, added-value product purchase and other services. 

Passengers can use multiple ways to pay extra luggage fees and other value-added services through mobile phones or other mobile devices, free from bundled consumption by ordering air tickets through a third party.

So far the new equipment is on trail operation and more self-service functions will be added as well as more check-in kiosks will be deployed all over the domestic airports. 

Through the application of the self-service device, West Air has become the first domestic budget airline that provides such service and greatly improves check-in efficiency.
