Actual situation


Airlines have to carry baggage, and the infrastructure needed to take a bag from a passenger and return it to them at the end of their journey is both complex and costly. Recent security restrictions and increasing of the number of passengers have made carrying baggage on the plane more difficult. The current system for scanning baggage is based on barcode label. Read rates for bar code scanners rarely top 90 percent, and quickly drop below 85 percent as equipment ages and becomes dirty. Also optical read rates are very dependent on line of sight; we have to make sure the bar code has to be seen by whatever automated device they have. This leaves airlines and airports with thousands of bags to sort manually each day, increasing the chance that baggage will be misrouted or lost and therefore reducing security and increasing charges due to the compensation costs when baggage is mishandled.

According to SITA, in 2005 the industry paid $1.21 Billion in direct compensation, and IATA estimate that the total industry costs, including labour, were $3.6 billion.
