Airport RFID Services Baggage Handling Process

Hong Kong International Airport will implement Avery's RFID tag in its baggage tracking process, with the goal of improving the customer experience. ...

... "Unlike bar code-only tags, which require the scanner to be in the line-of-sight to read the tag, the AD-833 RFID tag, specifically designed around aviation needs, can be read at long distances without line-of-sight in any orientation. RFID systems are also more reliable, achieving average read-rates of more than 97 percent, much better than a barcode-only system’s average of 80 percent.

In addition, the system reduces misdirected bags resulting in improved customer service. " ...
