A system and method for monitoring a passenger requiring assistance during travel, such as an unaccompanied minor, a disabled passenger, or an elderly passenger, on a common carrier. The system includes a machine-readable tag such as a Quick Response code (QR code) or a RFID tag that references passenger information, including itinerary information. A first mobile device of a first agent decodes the QR code to present the unaccompanied minor information. A second mobile device of a second agent decodes the QR code to present the unaccompanied minor information. In one embodiment, the QR code includes a uniform resource locator (URL) for accessing the passenger information and the first and second agents can authorize and accept the transfer of the unaccompanied minor by interfacing with a user interface.

A predetermined group of users using one or more computing devices are allowed to join a shared collaboration and communication space associated with the predetermined group of users. The shared collaboration and communication space is associated with the predetermined group of users for a specified time period and for a predetermined operation that the predetermined group of users are authorized to work on. The predetermined group of users are authenticated based on user identities and information identifying the predetermined operation. The shared collaboration and communication space allows for interactive communication among the predetermined group of users.
