SP Plus subsidiary Bags has started operating the remote baggage check-in system at Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) in Massachusetts, US.
The company is responsible for operating the Check & Go remote baggage check-in service at Terminals A, B and C of the airport.
This move adheres to Boston Airport’s new rules, which mandate that most rideshare drop-offs must take place in the central parking garage rather than the terminal.
With this service, passengers can check-in baggage with a Bags agent, who will provide them with their boarding passes and luggage tags.
Passengers can then take the elevator and walkway to the terminal for flight boarding.
Bags president Bob Miles stated: “Our goal is always to make travel easier for travellers. The Check & Go experience we provide at BOS helps to ease curbside congestion, relieve passengers of their luggage remotely and move travellers between destinations as efficiently and comfortably as possible.”
