The modern traveler expects efficiency and reliability at every journey step, especially regarding baggage handling. Delayed or lost luggage is frustrating for passengers and costly for airlines. In this context, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags are emerging as a transformative solution, redefining how airports handle luggage and ensuring smoother operations. RFID technology is revolutionizing airport logistics from improving accuracy to reducing lost baggage and enhancing operational efficiency.
Improving Accuracy in Baggage Tracking
One of the key challenges in traditional barcode-based baggage handling systems is their limited accuracy. Barcodes require line-of-sight scanning, meaning a scanner must physically read the code for the baggage to be tracked. This process is prone to errors, especially in high-traffic environments like airports. RFID tags, on the other hand, eliminate this limitation by enabling wireless tracking.
With tags embedded in baggage tags, each piece of luggage can be tracked in real-time. The tags use radio waves to communicate with readers placed strategically throughout the airport. Unlike barcodes, RFID tags can be scanned even if the tag is not directly visible. This ensures that bags are accurately tracked at every stage of their journey — from check-in to loading, transfer, and finally, to the arrival carousel.
The result? Drastically improved tracking accuracy and peace of mind for passengers who can monitor their luggage via mobile apps or airline updates.
