E-gates back online after delays at UK airports

After experiencing technical issues earlier this morning, e-gates at UK airports are now back online and fully operational. The delays caused frustration for travelers as they had to wait in long queues for passport control.

The Border Force, responsible for managing immigration and customs at UK borders, confirmed that the issue has been resolved and apologized for any inconvenience caused to passengers.

E-gates are electronic passport control gates that allow passengers with biometric passports to self-scan their passport and face for quicker entry into the country. They have become an essential part of airport security and have helped reduce waiting times for travelers.

Passengers are advised to check with their airlines for any updated information on their flights and to arrive at the airport with plenty of time before their departure to avoid any further delays.
