Airport Developments Limited (ADL) has announced plans to launch an advanced Baggage Reconciliation System (BRS) at Kamuzu and Chileka International Airports on May 1,2025.
The BRS is a state-of-the-art solution designed to track baggage in real-time, monitoring its journey from check-in to arrival.
In a statement released on Tuesday and seen by this publication, ADLÂ explains that the introduction of BRS aligns with International Air Transport Association (IATA) Resolution 753.
Reads the statement in part:”This resolution requires airlines to track baggage at four critical points: when passengers hand over baggage to airlines, when baggage is loaded onto aircraft, during transfer between carriers, and when baggage is returned to passengers.”
The firm adds that the new system will enhance baggage management efficiency at both airports, reducing instances of lost or delayed baggage and associated costs.
