Abstract

A status notification apparatus acquires face image data of a passenger of an aircraft, the face image data having been acquired at departure/arrival airports of the aircraft, and acquires, from a storage device in which arrival destination information regarding the arrival destination of the aircraft, the face image data of the passenger, and identification information identifying the passenger are stored in association with each other in advance, the identification information and the arrival destination information corresponding to the acquired face image data. The status notification apparatus acquires a movement status of the passenger, and notifies a service provider at the arrival destination of the acquired movement status and the acquired identification information based on the acquired arrival destination information.

First claim

1 . A status notification apparatus comprising:
at least one memory storing instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to: acquire biological information of a passenger of an aircraft, the biological information having been acquired at a departure and arrival an airport of the aircraft; acquire, from a storage device in which arrival destination information regarding an arrival destination of the aircraft, the biological information of the passenger, and identification information for identifying the passenger are stored in association with each other in advance, the identification information and the arrival destination information corresponding to the acquired biological information; acquire a progress status of the passenger where the progress status includes a progress of immigration inspection and customs procedures at the arrival airport; and perform notification of the acquired progress status and the acquired identification information to a person concerned with the passenger at an arrival destination based on the acquired arrival destination information.

2 . The status notification apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the biological information includes a face image data of the passenger, and further at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to: perform notification of the acquired face image data.

3 . The status notification apparatus according to claim 1 ,
further at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to: perform notification of a time when the passenger exits an arrival gate at the arrival airport where the time is predicted by an average time taken from a touch point acquiring the biological information to the arrival gate.

4 . A status notification method comprising:
acquiring biological information of a passenger of an aircraft, the biological information having been acquired at a departure and arrival an airport of the aircraft; acquiring, from a storage device in which arrival destination information regarding an arrival destination of the aircraft, the biological information of the passenger, and identification information for identifying the passenger are stored in association with each other in advance, the identification information and the arrival destination information corresponding to the acquired biological information; acquiring a progress status of the passenger where the progress status includes a progress of immigration inspection and customs procedures at the arrival airport; and performing notification of the acquired progress status and the acquired identification information to a person concerned with the passenger at an arrival destination based on the acquired arrival destination information.

5 . The status notification method according to claim 4 ,
wherein the biological information includes a face image data of the passenger, and the notification includes a notification of the acquired face image data.

6 . The status notification method according to claim 4 ,
the notification includes notification of a time when the passenger exits an arrival gate at the arrival airport where the time is predicted by an average time taken from a touch point acquiring the biological information to the arrival gate.

7 . A non-transitory computer readable recording medium including a program recorded thereon, the program including instructions that cause a computer to carry out:
acquiring biological information of a passenger of an aircraft, the biological information having been acquired at a departure and arrival an airport of the aircraft; acquiring, from a storage device in which arrival destination information regarding an arrival destination of the aircraft, the biological information of the passenger, and identification information for identifying the passenger are stored in association with each other in advance, the identification information and the arrival destination information corresponding to the acquired biological information; acquiring a progress status of the passenger where the progress status includes a progress of immigration inspection and customs procedures at the arrival airport; and performing notification of the acquired progress status and the acquired identification information to a person concerned with the passenger at an arrival destination based on the acquired arrival destination information.

8 . The non-transitory computer readable recording medium according to claim 7 ,
wherein the biological information includes a face image data of the passenger, and the notification includes a notification of the acquired face image data.

9 . The non-transitory computer readable recording medium according to claim 7 ,
the notification includes notification of a time when the passenger exits an arrival gate at the arrival airport where the time is predicted by an average time taken from a touch point acquiring the biological information to the arrival gate.
