Materna is showcasing its Integrated Passenger
Services (ips) at the Passenger Terminal Expo, which is being held
18 - 20 April 2012 in Vienna.
As well as its established solutions for
check-in, security and boarding, the key focus for Materna at
this year's event will be the live demonstration of its new
baggage drop-off technology. Together with its partners Sick and Vanderlande,
the company will demonstrate how bag drop procedures can be
optimised for operators and passengers alike.
Materna, which
has been operating successfully in the bag drop segment since
2003, is focusing on cutting-edge technologies for its new baggage
handling system, such as the integration of mobile components for
cashless payment.
Materna's CUSS platform-based baggage
drop-off solution gives passengers the option of self-service bag
drop regardless of counter opening hours. The bag tags can be
printed out beforehand at home or at the airport. The system
supports bag drops for passengers travelling in groups. If excess
baggage payments are necessary, the excess baggage fee can also be
calculated and paid using the Materna solution, offering
passengers more flexibility and convenience in their travel
preparations.
Airport operators can use the new bag drop system as
a fully automated or attended solution and can continue to utilize
existing infrastructure such as conveyor belt systems.
