I-ID eyodwa: Ifika esikhumulweni sezindiza 'isilungele ukundiza'

I-International Air Transport Association (IATA) ithuthukise amazinga emboni azoletha inhloso yokuthi abahambi bafike ezikhumulweni zezindiza sebelungele ukundiza isinyathelo esisodwa esiseduze neqiniso. Umkhuba Onconyiwe Osanda kukhishwa Wokuvunyelwa Kwedijithali uzovumela abahambi ukuthi baqinisekise ngedijithali ukuthi bavumelekile ukuya endaweni yamazwe ngamazwe, bagweme ukuma edeskini lokungena noma esangweni lokugibela ukuze bahlolwe amadokhumenti.

Ngaphansi kohlelo lwe-One ID izinkampani zezindiza zisebenza nazo IATA ukwenza idijithali okuhlangenwe nakho kwabagibeli ezikhumulweni zezindiza ngezinqubo ezinikwe amandla ze-biometric ngaphandle kokuthinta.

Izinhlelo sezisetshenziswa kakade ezikhumulweni zezindiza ezihlukahlukene ezivumela abahambi ukuthi badlule ezinqubweni zesikhumulo sezindiza njengokugibela ngaphandle kokukhiqiza amadokhumenti ephepha ngenxa yokuthi iphasi labo lokugibela lixhunywe kusihlonzi sebhayomethrikhi. Kodwa ezimweni eziningi abahambi kusazodingeka bafakazele ukwamukelwa kwabo edeskini lokungena noma esangweni lokugibela ngamasheke aphathekayo emibhalo yephepha (amaphasipoti, ama-visa kanye nemininingwane yezempilo njengesibonelo).

Izinga Lokwenziwa Kwedijithali Lokuvunyelwa lizothuthukisa ukugcwaliseka kwe-ID Eyodwa ngendlela yokuthi abagibeli bathole ngedijithali zonke izigunyazo ezidingekayo zangaphambi kohambo ngokuqondile kohulumeni ngaphambi kohambo lwabo. Ngokwabelana ngesimo sokuthi "KULUNGILE Ukuze Undize" nenkampani yabo yendiza, abahambi bangagwema konke ukuhlolwa kwedokhumenti esikhumulweni sezindiza.

“Abagibeli bafuna ubuchwepheshe bokwenza uhambo lube lula. Ngokwenza abagibeli babonise ukwamukelwa kwabo enkampanini yabo yezindiza ngaphambi kokuba bafike esikhumulweni sezindiza, sithatha igxathu elikhulu eliya phambili. Inhlolovo yakamuva ye-IATA Global Passenger ithole ukuthi u-83% wabahambi bazimisele ukwabelana ngolwazi lokuthuthela kwelinye izwe ukuze kucutshungulwe ngokushesha. Yingakho siqiniseka ukuthi lokhu kuzoba inketho edumile kubahambi uma isisetshenziswa. Futhi kunezisusa ezinhle zezinkampani zezindiza nohulumeni kanye nekhwalithi yedatha ethuthukisiwe, izimfuneko zokuthola usizo ezilula kanye nokuhlonzwa kwezinkinga zokuvunyelwa ngaphambi kokuba abagibeli bafike esikhumulweni sezindiza,” kusho u-Nick Careen, iPhini Likamongameli Eliphezulu Le-IATA Lokusebenza, Ukuphepha Nokuvikeleka.

Lokho abahambi abazokwazi ukukwenza esikhathini esizayo:

1. Dala ubuwena bedijithali obuqinisekisiwe usebenzisa uhlelo lwabo lokusebenza lwendiza kumakhalekhukhwini wabo ohlakaniphile 
2. Besebenzisa ubunikazi babo bedijithali, bangathumela ubufakazi bawo wonke amadokhumenti adingekayo kuziphathimandla zendawo ngaphambi kohambo
3. Thola 'ukugunyazwa kokwamukelwa' kwedijithali kuhlelo lwabo lokusebenza lwe-digital ID/passport 
4. Yabelana ngemininingwane eqinisekisiwe (hhayi yonke idatha yabo) nenkampani yabo yezindiza
5. Thola isiqinisekiso esivela enkampanini yabo yezindiza ukuthi konke kuhamba kahle futhi uye esikhumulweni sezindiza

Data Security

Izindinganiso ezintsha zenzelwe ukuvikela idatha yabagibeli kanye nokuqinisekisa ukuthi uhambo luhlala lufinyeleleka kubo bonke. Abagibeli bahlala belawula idatha yabo futhi izifakazelo kuphela (izimvume eziqinisekisiwe, hhayi idatha engemuva kwabo) okwabelwana ngazo kontanga (ngaphandle komlamuli). Lokhu kusebenzisana ne- Inhlangano ye-International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) amazinga, okuhlanganisa lawo Esiqinisekiso Sohambo Lwedijithali. Izinketho zokucubungula mathupha zizogcinwa ukuze abahambi babe nekhono lokuphuma ekucubunguleni ukuvunyelwa kwedijithali.

“Abahambi bangaqiniseka ukuthi lolu hlelo luzoba lula futhi luvikeleke. Iphuzu elibalulekile ukuthi ulwazi lwabelwana ngokwesidingo sokwazi. Nakuba uhulumeni angase acele imininingwane yomuntu siqu enemininingwane ukuze akhiphe i-visa, okuwukuphela kolwazi oluzokwabelwa inkampani yezindiza ukuthi umhambi une-visa futhi ngaphansi kwaziphi izimo. Futhi ngokugcina umgibeli elawula idatha yakhe, azikho izingosi zolwazi ezinkulu ezakhiwayo ezidinga ukuvikelwa. Ngokuklama sakha ubulula, ukuphepha kanye nokwenza lula,” kusho u-Louise Cole, OyiNhloko Yekhasimende Lesipiliyoni kanye Nokuqondisa kwe-IATA.

Isikhathi

Umnikelo we-Timatic we-IATA usiza ekuletheni umbono we-One ID ngolwazi oluthembekile lwemfuneko yokungena yezinkampani zezindiza nabahambi. Ukuhlanganisa i-Timatic ezinhlelweni zokusebenza ezinikeza imodeli yokubhalisa yezimfuneko zokungena kuletha inqubo emisiwe yokuqoqwa komhlaba wonke, ukuqinisekiswa, ukubuyekezwa kanye nokusatshalaliswa kwalolu lwazi.
