Suvarnabhumi » Suvarnabhumi Airport resolved delayed luggage’s problems.
Tuesday, September 4th, 2007Mr. Somchai Swasdipol, Director of Suvarnabhumi Airport, spoke on the problem of delayed luggage involving more than 6,000 pieces of luggage, and revealed that all problems were settled within that day.
He said the baggage delay was caused by an obstructed conveyor belt in the luggage claiming system. This resulted in the delay of about 6,722 pieces of luggage, 760 of which belonged to Thai Airways.
Initially, the airport used a back up plan called “For Backpack”. This method involve marking the luggage’s final destination since the luggage was weighted at check-in. As for now, the plan had resolved all delayed problems.
The default system will be back in use on this coming Monday afternoon. The airport had asked for 30 soldiers to help tag the baggage last night to make the service faster.
As for the conveyor belt’s problems, Kawazaki Co,.Ltd, the supplier of the conveyor belt, is now inspecting the belt to find the dead spot in order to solve the problem as soon as possible.
