Abstract

By purchasing a plane ticket or a cargo service, the passenger or the customer signs a contract with the airline company. From that moment on the airline company is responsible for all aspects of air travel, including the passenger' luggage (recording, handling to / from the aircraft etc.). Safe transport of passengers' luggage or cargo packages on airlines raises numerous problems for airlines and requires flexible, efficient solutions, appropriate to the specific requirements of each client. Annually millions of luggages get lost in airports around the world. This causes inconvenience to passengers and loss of resources and additional costs for the airlines. The aim of this paper is to examine how RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) technology could be useful for advanced shipment tracking (Track&Trace) in the airlines industry, by using rewritable passive RFID tags.
