This happens in US airports, which also use biometric identification.

As I see it, the system at the moment relies solely on a visual identification by a member of the ground crew. Adding fingerprint recognition will improve the accuracy of identification; if the fingerprints do not match, the passenger will not be allowed to board until further checks are carried out.
