Try the BA website....they are pushing self-checkin and other selfhelp tech.
www.ba.com...Also have a peek at Alaska/Horizon Air's site, www.alaskaair.com.
Very progressive in the technology arena. I previously worked on many hi-tech
forward looking projects with them. You may even glean some info from their
vendors such as Bank of America (!), who are providing passenger recognition
technology, Micron, and Kinetics. Also, have a look at Continental Airlines and
Delta Airlines corporate pages.

Good luck!
