United to Scrap Baggage System at Denver Airport

摘要

After more than a decade of trying to make Denver Inter-national Airport's computerized baggage system work as designed, United Air Lines Inc. is giving up on the technology and returning to manual handling procedures. "It's never worked up to its potential," United spokesman Jeff Green said last week. He added that the airline has spent "enormous amounts of money" on the system over the past 10 years, but it's still used only for luggage heading out of Denver on United and some baggage transfers between flights.
