  • RFID for Baggage Handling and Tracking
    RFID for Baggage Handling and Tracking Whitepaper Author Kristine P. Koldkjær, Lyngsoe Systems EXECUTIVE SUMMARY With potential savings of 20 cents for every 10 cents4 spent on implementing RFID for baggage handling and tracking, now is the time to realize the benefits and close the gap in baggage performance. RFID technology is expected to reduce mishandling rates for baggage by 25%4, which means large savings for airlines, and just as importantly, a better passenger experience. Barcode read rates on transfer bags are still found to be at 60-70%, so a large share of bags need to be handled twice and take up capacity. Due to the expected increase in doubling passenger numbers within the next 15 years1, new technology is required to support the industry with their baggage handling solutions. RFID has proven read rates of 99.9% in baggage handling and is the most reliable and cost-effective technology to increase capacity and improve the baggage handling process. Delta Airlines was the first airline to take the step into full RFID implementation for baggage handling in the airline industry, and it is no longer a matter of whether to go for RFID, but a matter of when. Airlines waiting too long will fall behind in the race to provide increased passenger services, better baggage handling, improved security and lower operational costs. 2 | RFID for Baggage Handling and Tracking WHY RFID TECHNOLOGY FOR BAGGAGE HANDLING AND TRACKING?
