SITA to deploy passenger-baggage reconciliation system at BIAL

Bangalore: IT solutions and communication services provider for the air transport industry, SITA, has said it will deploy its integrated passenger-baggage reconciliation system at Bangalore International Airport (BIAL). It would be the first-ever such system to go live at an Indian airport, SITA officials told reporters here.
The new system, expected to be operational in March at the greenfield airport, comprises two modules -- BagManager and BagMessage.
BagManager interfaces with check-in and baggage sorting systems, and integrates with flight information systems for any latest updates on aircraft landing, company officials said.
"BagMessage ensures that latest information about passenger bags is available whenever and wherever needed,'' SITA's Regional Vice-President Elyes M'Rad said.
