Sita launches bag tracking tool

vcs-PRAsset2The current location of passengers’ baggage is now available to airlines and airports via Sita’s new BagJourney.

Sita says it allows bags to be tracked like parcels.

Already, airlines and airports exchange information on the location of passengers’ baggage using BagMessage, which is used by more than 220 airports and 500 airlines around the world.

Speaking at the Passenger Terminal Expo, Nick Gates, Sita portfolio director - Baggage said: “BagJourney follows the bag, from check in to final delivery, through multiple airports and multiple airlines. We have now made it possible to track airline baggage just like a parcel. We are delivering this service to our community via an application programming interface (API) to allow airlines and airports to integrate it into to their existing systems quickly and easily, including services such as mobile updates which they might offer to passengers.”
