Without passport
Recently, Ban and I went on a short trip to Singapore i.e. two nights. We flew Firefly from Subang Airport to Seletar Airport. The former is much closer to our home than KLIA T2. It was only later on that I discovered that Scoot also flies from Subang airpot but, as I just checked, it is more expensive.
On our way back, at the autogate immigration clearance at Seletar Airport, I followed the instructions on the panels. After I cleared both barriers, I was confused because there was no instruction to have my passport scanned, whereas I heared an officer telling a senior citizen to do that when he was guiding the latter.
So I tried to flag that officer but he was already looking at the other passengers. Instead, an officer at a counter offered to help me. I informed her that I was not asked to scan my passport. She assured me that that was alright because the machine scanned my iris instead. What?!
Wow, that's so advanced! Later, I searched and found this:
Automated Lanes at the Passenger Halls
I guess that they must have registered my iris when I arrived?
