    Company insight > Routes Company insight > Routes Easy-peasy self-service bag tagging About 14 million easyJet passengers flying in and out of Gatwick Airport choose to use the self-service bag-drop system. Considering that the airline introduced it just two and a half years ago, the uptake has been swift. Thomas Doogan, ground-operations customer experience manager at easyJet, speaks about the shift in passenger behaviour and the role eezeetags is playing in the airline’s innovation. client convenience, intends to raise that to 45% by the end of 2017, and to 70% by the end of 2018. There have been major benefits, not least in efficiency, says Doogan. “The perception of our friendliness by customers has increased by 10% and that is in the top two boxes – people who are ‘very satisfied’ and ‘extremely satisfied’.” As airports seek to streamline passenger flow, self-service facilities offer smoother, stress-free operations for travellers. The customers’ praise is attributable to the ground crew’s new-found freedom. Previously, the crew had to training on how to effectively use.

  • 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? TRACK MY BAG With the rapid development of technologies such as mobile apps, customers now require more information from companies with which they have dealings.
