Brussels Airlines does all it can to make your travel as easy as possible, giving you the option of using an electronic bag tag, which uses an electronic display instead of the conventional paper bag tag.
Prepare your electronic bag tag from the convenience of your own home via your smartphone and attach it to your baggage. Once you arrive at the airport, simply drop off your baggage directly at the self-service bag drop machines or, where available, at our Fast Bag Drop machines.
Travelling with Brussels Airlines is even easier thanks to the electronic bag tag solution by BAGTAG and BagID, not to mention the convenient RIMOWA Electronic Tag for some fitted models.
