How the automatic self-drop baggage machines works

1. You have to collect and attach their bag tags at CUSS kiosks located at the airport.

3. The system will open the airline’s application on the SBD machine with a single click.
4. Travellers will have to agree to the self-declaration form.
5. The system will check all relevant criteria and business rules defined by the airlines.
