Sky ICT expands scope of passenger processing system
Bangkok Post
|APRIL 18, 2025
SET-listed Sky ICT has expanded and upgraded its Common Use Passenger Processing System (CUPPS), a pre-boarding passenger system, to cover 13 airports nationwide, supporting the tourism sector.
The company already provides biometric identification system that uses facial scanning to verify passengers’ identities before entering the airport system for all six airports operated by Airports of Thailand (AOT).
Sithidej Mayalarp, chief executive of Sky ICT, said 2025 is the “Amazing Thailand Grand Tourism and Sports Year”, with the number of travellers expected to increase.
The Thai aviation sector is expected to grow by more than 10% this year from 2024, he said.
According to the Tourism Authority of Thailand, in the first quarter of 2025 the country welcomed more than 9.5 million foreign arrivals, up 1.91% year-on-year.
AOT predicts that the number of air passengers may exceed 130 million this year as the aviation and tourism sectors boom.
