Advance Passenger Information (API-PNR)
Advanced Passenger Information (API) and Passenger Number Record (PNR) systems have numerous benefits for a country's security and the overall tourism experience.
By accurately profiling every traveler, these systems help enhance the security measures of a country. API provides important information about passengers, such as their full name, date of birth, nationality, and travel document details, which enables authorities to identify potential security threats.
Likewise, PNR captures crucial data related to a passenger's travel itinerary, including flight details, accommodation bookings, and payment information.
This allows authorities to monitor suspicious activities and identify any deviations from normal travel patterns.
Implementing API and PNR systems not only strengthens national security but also enhances the tourism experience by ensuring a safer and more efficient travel process for all passengers.
