Loose baggage

Loose baggage

Autonomous baggage towing handles loose baggage flows between sorting areas, make-up zones, and nearby aircraft stands. By automating short-distance transfers, airports can reduce manual towing tasks, optimise ground handling resources, and improve operational consistency around busy terminal environments. These autonomous systems are designed to safely navigate areas with frequent passenger movement, service vehicles, and tight operating constraints.

Suitable for:

  • Short distances between baggage halls, make-up areas, and stands
  • Operating around passenger terminals, where traffic density and pedestrian presence require high safety and precision
  • Limited aircraft interactions, supporting operations that do not require complex manoeuvres on the apron
  • Auto-hooking with “towbar down”, enabling seamless and efficient trailer coupling without manual intervention

 

Client examples:
dnata - Dubai World Central - Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC)
Peach Aviation - Kansai International Airport
Alyzia Group - Toulouse Blagnac Airport
