For those of you who are struggling with baggage!

[Fredrik]

I quickly built a simple baggage system to show you how it can be setup.

Step 1:
- Check your zooning and path to the baggage bay. If you have a disconnected baggage bay, make sure there is a viable path including sidewalks, doors and crosswalks for the ramp agents to get there.
- Make sure that the baggage bay has service road connection (service road can be built inside for this purpose).
- Make sure that all belts face the correct direction. Use R to rotate.
- Wait with scanners and tilt trays if you are having trouble getting the basic setup.

See screenshot for reference:

Step 2:
- Connect your stands to the baggage bay.
- Connect your baggage claim are to the baggage bay.
- Connect check-in desks to the baggage bay.
- Make sure you have enough ramp agents to both service stands and the baggage bay.
- Make sure you have enabled baggage handling in the operations menu.

EDIT: Maybe this is not clearly communicated, but baggage is not required. You can very well run an airport without baggage. Just FYI. :)

ive Done everything that is said on this bags get unloaded fine but they dont get loaded

[lodewijk [NL}]

have everything set up like this too, (just scaled it up a bit with more check in desks) but nope, i see suitcases piles of them, lying ontop of the check in desk. its not moving to the belt behind it. and there is never any baggage coming out of landed planes either.

guessing its broken?

Figured out only 10 mins ago.

Ramp agents should be able to walk on service roads without the need for a sidewalk.
Ramp agents shoud consder the entire in-fence area (runways, stands, tarmac) as secure. So you don't have to zone small areas to guide ramp agents.

my 2 cents. it worked for me only as i have added a fence from my airport to the border of the airport property. only then the ramp agents went to the stands. maybe it helps.

[Fredrik]

No, fence should not impact that. You have to make sure zoning is correct.

[TheFodder]

This is probably dumb but i am not seeing the option to connect the baggage bay to the stands, i am missing something here right?

[Vladolf Putler]

Ok, ramp agents were standing in the bay, bags were ready for transport, once transport was about to arrive, they left, all of them and they will not come back, I can do whatever I want:p

edit: ok there was missing zone in the entrance for trucks!

[Sandiozo]

its bugged. One issue got solved by making the area secured, also marking the gate doors secured also, but what happens next is that. Sometimes the luggage carts after being emptied at the baggage thing just stands there and doesnt move, or that the workers run up and down at the baggage bay. Also i just experienced that baggage that should go to the recieving area just started to pille up right before leaving the baggage bay.

then maybe the restart of the game solved it. fact is the only change i did was to add the fence. but if the workaround is the restart, then it should be so ;)

reboot tut gut ;)

How can i build this service road into the terminal building?

[Gorlos]

Still not working?????

Last but not least remember to press TAB goto operations and Enable baggage operations =)

You need to delete walls or create large doors. I know it is not super intuitive or practical.

[creo66]

I can not verify to the "small stand" Baggage Con and Security Con are red... someone an idea?

[[exoc]InooName]

Do you need for every medium stand a cargo bay?
Or can i connect every stand with the same cargo bay and checkin desk?

[pderuiter]

You can of course. But you will run into capacity issues after a certain point :)
