Efficient baggage handling is critical to timely
aviation operations. With increasingly complex
and costly Baggage Handling Systems (BHS) and
Checked Baggage Inspection Systems (CBIS) now in
use at most airports, aviation authorities are working
to validate systems’ integrity and assure operational
performance over an airport’s life cycle.
