Quick baggage drop-off thanks to electronic bag tags
We can provide you with an electronic bag tag instead of a paper baggage tag while travelling. You can already prepare your baggage tag at home this way, and easily and quickly drop-off your baggage at the airport.
Do you own an electronic baggage tag from BAGTAG, BagID or a RIMOWA suitcase with an integrated bag tag? Then you can use this service on your next Austrian Airlines flight.
You can prepare the digital baggage tags conveniently at home through your smartphone and attach them to your travel baggage. At your departure airport your baggage can then be quickly and conveniently dropped off at the baggage machines or at Fast Bag Drop-off, depending on availability.
How to use your electronic bag tag
Check in as usual for your Austrian flight via online check-in or the Austrian app.
Then, open the BAGTAG or BagID app and follow the provider’s instructions.
