Virgin Atlantic has begun testing Google Glass.
The airline is conducting a six-week experiment with the wearable technology for passengers in its Upper Class Lounge at London Heathrow airport.
The web-connected specs should enable concierge staff to identify passengers arriving at the airport.
With data flashing before their eyes, staff can update customers on their latest flight information, as well as weather and events at their destination.
Once a passenger has been identified, the glasses promise to begin the check-in process automatically and perform services such as translating relevant foreign language travel notices.
