Imagine a world where lost luggage is a thing of the past. The future of air travel promises to revolutionize the way we handle our bags, employing cutting-edge technology to ensure your belongings always reach their intended destination.
Data is the main source of performance for airlines
Data has become one of the most important factors in determining how an airline operates successfully
- During a single trip, a passenger may interact with up to 10 different entities, requiring the secure exchange of data
- The amount of data shared across the industry has exploded in recent years

100 systems were consolidated into ten to make data in its cargo business much more manageable
- The technology has impacted the work of more than 8,000 team members in both cargo and airport operations, as well as more than 30,000 customers
- Learn more from the level of data received
A smooth trip relies heavily on data
Baggage tracking data significantly reduces the chance of being mishandled
- Real-time data allows airports to allocate resources more effectively
- In 2019, 25.4 million pieces of luggage were mishandled around the globe, costing the air transport industry approximately $2.5bn
- The global pandemic has been a disaster for the airline industry, but IATA believes that the industry will return to 2019 levels in 2022
- And with that recovery will come the collection of record amounts of data
Next step
Being able to identify problems long before they occur
- Imagine if we can tell that a part on an aircraft needs to be replaced before its end of lifetime
- Our approach will add more precision and thus allow us to select not only what to replace, but where and when.”
