RIMOWA Launches Electronic Tag

RIMOWA has launched the first digital and fully-integrated mobility solution for luggage, making flying with baggage more convenient and secure than ever. Consisting of a RIMOWA suitcase with built-in Electronic Tag and an airline app, this new feature is first integrated by Lufthansa in its app.

Instead of spending time waiting at the airline’s counter, business travellers with RIMOWA Electronic Tag can simply check in their luggage from home or while on the road using the airline app. In addition to a digital boarding pass, passengers will receive digital luggage information from the airline for their booked flight. Just by one click the luggage information is sent via Bluetooth from the smartphone to the suitcase equipped with the tag, and the details are immediately displayed on the built-in data module. The RIMOWA suitcase can then be dropped off within seconds at the airport.

In terms of size and appearance, the luggage information displayed on the electronic data module corresponds to today’s paper labels, including the green EU stripe required by customs (compulsory for all flights departing from European airports). The important information is also protected from moisture, heat, cold, shocks and vibration and cannot be accidentally torn off, perfect for business warriors always on the go.  www.rimowa.com
