Dubai’s Passport-Free Future Begins as AI Takes Over Airport Immigration

Dubai International Airport launched the 'Red Carpet Corridor,' a facial recognition system letting passengers pass immigration without passports or boarding passes.
The AI system processes up to 10 passengers at once, with each traveler clearing in 6 to 14 seconds, and some cases as fast as 3.4 seconds.
Over 500,000 travelers used the technology in 2025, and it will expand to all passengers after starting with first and business class at Terminal 3.
The system improves accessibility for elderly and wheelchair users, but critics raise privacy, accuracy, and biometric data security concerns.
The same technology is planned for Al Maktoum International Airport when it becomes Dubai's main hub in the early 2030s.
