Amadeus BRS Taking your baggage services to the next level Amadeus BRS is an innovative reconciliation solution which matches real-time passenger, flight and baggage data. Amadeus BRS supports both departure and arrival bags as part of the standard product functionality. The Amadeus Baggage Reconciliation System saves airlines millions in compensation and operational costs and gives ground handlers the tools to truly differentiate their service delivery. Amadeus BRS uses real-time data to track luggage simultaneously with passenger and flight movement, storing all required data to be fully R753 compliant. Amadeus BRS is suitable for all customers: airlines, ground handlers and airports. The baggage journey As baggage enters the ‘make-up’ phase of its journey, Amadeus BRS scans each bag to confirm its arrival and document its departure following the requirements of the latest industry resolution R753. Amadeus BRS tracks the bag and its ‘last seen’ location as it is loaded onto the aircraft or during arrival. Substantial reduction in operational costs A centrally-hosted, easy to manage solution A key benefit for Altéa customers is that it is no longer necessary to send TTY messages to communicate the status and location of baggage. As R753 becomes effective, so does an increase in messages to enhance the tracking of baggage. The integration between the Altéa Departure Control System (Altéa DCS) and Amadeus BRS removes concerns related to cost increases due to messaging. Instead, airlines will see substantial operational savings. Lastly, with less intervention required to send & respond to BIMs, authorisation to load aircraft can be given quicker, resulting in faster flight turnarounds. Fewer delays make for more cost-efficient departures and satisfied passengers. Amadeus BRS is centrally-hosted in Amadeus’ private cloud from a state-of-the-art data center in Erding. All product developments, enhancements, maintenance and security are managed by Amadeus. This means customers have no concerns about on-site IT infrastructure, technical expertise, on-going investment in upgrades, data security and core room space. Instead, with a simple internet connection and user front-end, airports, airlines and ground handlers will always have access to the latest Amadeus BRS releases at no additional cost. Full product training and 24/7 help desk support is also provided with each Amadeus BRS implementation.
