ANNAPOLIS, Md. · British-owned airports operator Manchester Airports Group has ordered an additional 22 SelfServ common use self-service (CUSS) kiosks from ARINC Inc. The airport group operates 70 SelfServ passenger kiosks, which were installed last year.
 
According to a news release, ARINC is expected to install the new units by June 2007.
  
Thirteen airlines share the SelfServ kiosks, which are located at the group's flagship Manchester Airport and two other U.K. airports. Sharing CUSS kiosks saves costs for airlines and gives reduced check-in times for passengers. The kiosks scan passports and print boarding passes for any participating airline.
 
The Manchester Airports Group, comprised of Manchester, East Midlands, Bournemouth and Humberside airports, is the second-largest airport operator in the United Kingdom. Manchester Airport is the country's third-largest airport, handling 22 million passengers a year.
