SAFE LANDING FOR LUGGAGE:SMART RFID for airports
Lost luggage – one of the biggest problem of every airport.
Only in 2015, over 23 millions of bags and suitcases were lost or mishandled.
1 disappointing surprise of lost luggage happens to 1 of 150 passengers.
6,5 suitcases are lost for every 1000 passengers.

How is baggage lost?
It doesn’t take much.
Just• typical employee’s omission,• small damage of barcode, • unfortunate baggage placing on line,• too big gap between barcode and
scanner.
Majority of lost luggace cases results from employees’ mistakes.These are the errors that can be eiminated.

The most often reasons of baggage transfer delays between airports.

Mistakes at luggage check-inLuggage load failuresMistakes at luggage loadMistakes at luggage reclaimRestrictions on luggage weight / Airport regulationsLuggage swapWrong tagging
Lost baggage = lost:• money needed for an extra baggage transfer
and amends for passenger,• good brand image of airport and/or airline,• passenger’s time and patience.

Is it really impossible to solve baggage problem?
Does such delicate issue have to rely on risky barcodes?
Should the fate of passenger’s baggage depend on correct baggage barcode scan?
Is there no possibility for real-time baggage tracking?
TILTING AT WINDMILLS?THE UNSOLVABLE PROBLEM?
RFID: (R)EVOLUTION IS IN THE AIR
RFID technology uses radio waves for immediate, precise group identification of even hundreds of tags at once.
It is the last and most perfect chain in the identification development.
It has no disadvantages of previous solutions, while offering a completely new quality.
RFID technology is used at airport for a decade. And despite the growth of passengers number, it brings positive results.

97% passengers own mobile device.
66% of them claim that they would use mobile application to track their baggage.
66% airlines declare implementing such feature in 2017.
Answer to passengers’ expectations…TECHNOLOGY ON THE RISE
IATA 753 Resolution (International Air Transport Association) imposes on all airlines the duty of monitoring of EVERY baggage since check-in to reclaim.
IATA recommends RFID technology as the most suitable for implementing 753 Resolution.
…and law regulationsTECHNOLOGY ON THE RISE
Aerospace experts agree: not only has RFID already succeeded in bringing improvements at airports, but it has also still a lot to offer for further optimizations of airport processes.
In 2007-2016 RFID helped to reduce 50% of lost luggage. It is equal to 22,4 bln $ savings.
To 2022, RFID may decrease the percentage of lost luggage by 25%. Aerospace industry will save over 3 bln dollars.
Promising forecastsTECHNOLOGY ON THE RISE
Advantages from implementing RFID:
processes optimization: check-in, search, transfer and reclaim,
fast and accurate data acquisition,
match with regulations on passengers’ safety and comfort.
TECHNOLOGY ON THE RISERFID becomes the standard solution
The great advantage of RFID is automatic identification of even up to several hundreds items at once.
Technology needs only 1 second for this.
IDENTIFICATION ON THE FLYBAGGAGE TRACKING
No need for separate identification of every single suitcase or bag.
Mass-scale identification is done automatically.
RFID allows for identification of objects or items that are moving at several kilometers per hour.
RFID will work perfectly fine for error-free recognition of suitcases and bags placed:
in sorting
on line in baggage reclaim
on trolley.
IDENTIFICATION ON THE FLYBAGGAGE TRACKING
RFID technology allows for baggage identification from 8 meters.
No more need for visual contact between reader and baggage.
It is possible to track any baggage in real time.At any moment every suitcase can belocalized.
To find it, only smartphone is needed.

Delta Airlines allows passengers to mark their own baggage with RFID tags.By investing 50 mln $ in 4600 scanners, 3800 RFID printers and 600 RFID portals at 344 airports, this airline wants to provide its passengers with maximum comfort.
Good practiceTECHNOLOGY ON THE RISE
AirFrance KLM uses tags for tracking baggages in real time.Both passengers and staff always know, where suitcase and bag is.
Good practiceTECHNOLOGY ON THE RISE
Quantas Airways implemented board cards with RFID tags.Service customer was accelerated (from 10 to 2,5 minutes) and effectively linked baggage with its owner. Thanks to that, airline staff makes less mistakes with baggage mishandling or losing it.
Good practiceTECHNOLOGY ON THE RISE
Jetstar Australia installs RFID tags in life vests, put under passengers’ seats.Steward should only walk through aisle to be certain that all life vests are on board.
Good practiceTECHNOLOGY ON THE RISE
With RFID it is possible to perform stock-taking of: • vehicles and devices used by airport staff;• aerospace parts.
SOUND-SPEED STOCK-TAKINGEVERYTHING ON ITS PLACE
Boening 737 has tags installed on aerospace parts so stack-taking is easy and parts tracking can be launched at any time.The supply chain flexibility has increased while the costs of service and maintance – have decreased.
