Manchester airport is once again leading the way in technology as it becomes the first the first Uk airport to trial new eye scanners that read passengers iris as they are walking around the terminal.
Bosses hope the trial will prove successful and be implemented on a permanent basis, the hope is that criminals will be unable to swap boarding passes before take off as the eyes are scanned instead of the ticket.
The trials are only being used on volunteers and no security is being stepped down as a result. Manchester airport was the first airport to test the highly controversial body scanners, which have now been extended to more UK airports.
