System of baggage self-service check-in IS-BagDrop
Self-service helps to reduce lines at check-in counters and to cut costs of passenger service
IS-BagDrop counter is designated for self-service baggage tagging and checking in. Usage of IS-BagDrop counters helps to reach two main goals:
- to reduce lines at check-in counters by rearranging passenger traffic
- to cut costs of passenger service by automation of baggage checking in and introduction of self-service
Simulation modelling helps to figure out correct number of check-in counters, IS-BagDrop counters and self-check-in kiosks and to place them in the most optimal way in the terminal.
IS-BagDrop is supplied in two variants:
IS-BagDrop Adv
IS-BagDrop Adv makes the process of passenger and baggage check-in completely automatic – from passenger’s registration and boarding pass printing to registration of baggage and, if necessary, making additional payment for excess baggage. IS-BagDrop Adv completely substitutes common check-in counter.
The option of self-service baggage check-in is used to make check-in process faster in order to reduce lines at the counters.

Baggage admission for the flight and additional fees
IS-BagDrop system contains data about the airline’s standard depending on class of service and receives information from PLN on the class of reservation of passenger’s ticket. So baggage admission for the flight is carried out only on condition of compliance of the checked in baggage with all transportation norms of the airline. In case of necessity it is possible to pay for extra weight or additional baggage item at IS-BagDrop counter.
IS-BagDrop Adv model with the help of baggage dimensions scanner can evaluate the size and structure of the baggage. Usage of dimensions scanner helps to avoid cases of oversized or non-standard baggage getting into the system.
Integration with baggage handling system
IS-BagDrop counter totally controls weighing and feeding conveyor. For that IS-BagDrop is connected with PLC controller of baggage handling system, takes place of control block of weighing conveyor and becomes an intermediate link in the process of control of baggage feeding onto collecting conveyor.
