Market CAGR for commercial airport baggage handling systems is being driven by increase in airport infrastructure development investments to accommodate rising passenger traffic. Market expansion is expected to be aided by rising disposable income and a growing population. Furthermore, investors are installing more sophisticated baggage handling systems to improve operational effectiveness, which is likely to encourage market revenue growth.
However, high maintenance costs and baggage mishandling at airports are impeding revenue growth. Misplaced baggage increased by 24% as airports and airlines struggled to keep up with passenger demand. Social media users have shared photos of unclaimed bags, and angry anecdotes have accumulated. One traveller used an Apple Air Tag to track her misplaced bag from Toronto to St. John Airport for five days. Someone saw his rucksack leave for England, Germany, and Iceland without him. As an increasing number of travellers return to flying, the industry is closely examining the future of luggage management.
The commercial airport baggage handling systems market segmentation, based on airport class includes A, B and C. The C accounted for a sizable market share. Furthermore, Class C airspace regions are intended to improve aviation safety by lowering the likelihood of mid-air crashes in the terminal area and improving the management of air traffic operations inside it. Certain operating restrictions and equipment requirements apply to aircraft operating in these airspace zones.
The commercial airport baggage handling systems market segmentation, RFID and barcode are two technology-based market segments. Due to the technology's affordability and dependability in streamlining the baggage handling process, the RFID technology segment is anticipated to experience the highest growth. RFID improves passenger experience by cutting the rate of baggage mishandling by almost 20%. The IATA resolution 753 can be easily complied with by obtaining the history of baggage handling errors. For the benefit of their customers' travel experiences, the major airline companies are investing in RFID technology.

The commercial airport baggage handling systems market segmentation, based on service, includes self-service and assisted service. Self-service accounted for a sizable market share. The use of self-service technology allows the airport to decentralize the processing of a large number of passengers, allowing for better use of staff who may be needed in other sections of the airport. To begin, passengers should deposit their luggage on the scales located at the bag-drop station.
The commercial airport baggage handling systems market segmentation, based on type, includes conveyors and destination-coded vehicles. As DCVs operate about 4.5 times faster than conveyor baggage handling systems, the destination-coded vehicles segment is anticipated to present profitable growth opportunities (BHS). It is being installed in large airports with multiple terminals even though the technology is relatively new. Factors like the rising number of air travellers and the upgrading of airport infrastructure, including technological advancement and capacity enhancement, are credited for the quick growth of this market.
By Region, the study provides the market insights into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Rest of the World. North America dominates the commercial airport baggage handling systems market and is projected to maintain its position over the forecast period. This expansion can be ascribed to early adoption of these technologies as well as increased government investment in airport infrastructure.
Further, the major countries studied in the market report are The U.S., Canada, German, France, the UK, Italy, Spain, China, Japan, India, Australia, South Korea, and Brazil.
