Baggage Reconciliation Technology's Role in Supporting Airport Recovery

摘要

It's been more than one year since the COVID-19 pandemic changed the entire world. The air transport industry was among the most affected by the crisis, as airports and airlines across the globe halted operations for the sake of safety. Regional airports were arguably hit the hardest by this shift; as cash-strapped airlines scrambled to reduce costs, many had to cut out routes to smaller cities entirely. Smaller airports lost revenue due to fewer airlines flying in and out of their locations. Luis Felipe de Oliveira, director general of ACI World, hit the nail on the head when he said, "the global transportation crisis has exacerbated the shortfall for smaller airports." As travel slowly begins to return in 2021, these smaller airports and cities will be tasked with the unique challenge of getting airlines to return to their facilities.
