Targeting your Passenger’s Satisfaction
Passenger processing is one of the main challenges in today’s aviation. Airports and airlines have to satisfy their customers with quick and simple passenger processing, making travelling as comfortable as possible. Short waiting times and excellent customer service are the most important elements when it comes to creating a great passenger experience. With PrehKeyTec’s high quality solutions, data input itself is faster because the devices are easy to handle and have very high good-read rates of travel documents. Downtimes can also be avoided, resulting in reduced waiting time and increased passenger satisfaction.
The quality of the customer service on the other hand is driven by frontline employees. For the perfect passenger experience the staff does not only have to be fast and friendly, but also competent and professional. With our easy-to-use devices your staff will always have the tools to increase customer service and deliver your brand message.

Product Highlights
MCI 111 A | Check-in Keyboard with OCR reader and MSR
The MCI 111 A combines all of PrehKeyTec’s knowledge on the design and manufacturing of keyboards, with the necessary functions required for airline and terminal check-in processes.
Using PrehKeyTec’s advanced integration capabilities, the MCI 111 A supports alpha numeric data entry, with an optionally integrated touchpad, a 3-track MSR and an OCR reader. A single USB port (one-cable solution) connects the keyboard to the host device, so you no longer have to worry about cable management. Both the OCR reader and the magnetic stripe reader work bidirectional. This allows for left-hand or right-hand employees to work ergonomically.
Hot keys allow the elimination of keystrokes, speed up overall processing time with customers and enhance your staff’s efficiency. A software tool allows to easily configure keys and integrated modules.
Reduced training time through custom-tailored solutions that are easy to use and enhance employee productivity. The MCI 111 A is popular with major airport/airline integrators.
The MCI 111 A offers higher data-security through optional Encryption. The OCR keyboard is CUTE & CUPPS certified by IT providers like Amadeus, Collins (Arinc), Resa, Sita, Travelsky and Materna (Ultra). It is IATA FOID-compliant and, in addition to Windows®, also compatible with Android ™ and Linux®.
