DUBAI: Dubai Airport has started installing advanced 3D AI scanners to make security checks faster and easier for passengers.
Powered by artificial intelligence, the new scanners will screen luggage within seconds, allowing travelers to clear security checks in minimal time.
According to officials, passengers no longer need to remove laptops, perfume, water bottles or other liquids during screening.
The airport administration said the project will be completed by the end of 2026, which expresses confidence that the initiative will make travel smarter and more seamlessly for all passengers.

The facility marked its busiest first half on a record with a growth of 2.3% year to year, welcome to a record 46 million passengers in the first half of this year despite disturbances due to the Iran-Israel war.
