GepäckID

GepäckID is an electronic luggage tag system designed for easy identification of traveler's luggage at airports. Labeled as "Peace of Mind" by its developers, GepäckID allows travelers to attach a digital tag to their luggage, which can be easily scanned at the airport.

The system uses a small, battery-free tag attached to the handle of the luggage, containing a unique identifier and accompanying travelers' contact information. This information can be easily accessed by airport staff using a mobile app or reader device. In addition to the scanner system, travelers can also use the GepäckID app to monitor the location of their luggage and receive updates on its status.

To function, a traveler must first register with the GepäckID service, creating a user account and attaching a digital tag to their luggage. Travelers can then provide access to airport staff to scan their baggage, facilitating the identification process. Throughout the journey, the GepäckID system enables airport employees to track individual suitcases, greatly reducing wait times and potential loss.

Retailing the electronic tags, priced for varying travelers depending on the type of coverage chosen, GepäckID touts the electronic system as safe and seamlessly integrated into airport procedures. There has been notice of GepäckID partnering with major carriers and airlines worldwide in efforts to integrate their system into airport check-ins.
