4. 4 Why?
• Push airport processes off airport:
• Passengers can prepare their trip without airport stress
• Airport – Airline efficiencies: hardware, software, paper, m2
• Faster bag drop: dedicated fast bag drop points for pre-tagged luggage
• Highest stress factor for business travelers is (insecurity about) lost or
delayed luggage: tracking functionality and fast retrieval of delayed luggage
• Recognition and personalization: sleeves that indicate Frequent Flyer level
• Enabling future RFID tracking at airports: improved baggage performance
• In line with other Air France-KLM and industry developments: Home Printed
Bag Tags
