Check-in that does not create a queue
QR scanning, offline fallbacks and staffing math for the door.
Door queues are a throughput problem, not a technology problem. One scanner clears roughly 4 guests a minute, so plan lanes from your peak arrival rate.
Offline first
Venue wifi fails. A scanner that queues scans locally and syncs later keeps the line moving.
Staffing
Add a floating helper for every three lanes to handle exceptions instead of blocking a lane.
