When allowance is exceeded the passenger has to pay excess baggage

Airlines use the piece (charge per unit) or weight (charge per kilo) concept

Example e-ticket piece concept

Example e-ticket weight concept

SSDOP-the machine alerts there is excess baggage

The passenger will be directed to a servicedesk and the PGSA calculates the excess baggage fee

How to read a baggage label

Check-in baggage always needs a label wich contains:

• a barcode
• a tagnumber associated to the passenger
• flightnumber
• destination
• date
• securitynumber
• claimtag
• reconciliation stubs

Claimtag

With the claimtag the passenger can proof that it's his luggage. A passenger receives this stub at check-in and needs to preserve it in case of transfer or luggage problems

Limited release

When you are a SSDOP greeter and notice a suitcase is damaged the passenger needs to  fill out a limited release label at the service desk.

Examples:

-broken handle

-ripped handle

-ripped suitcase

-missing wheel on a trolley

Limited release is not handled at the SSDOP because:

• the SSDOP process need to be quick service
• SSDOP labels are self-adhesive so there is no space for limited release information on the back
