They are also responsible for transporting the checked luggage coming from the plane that has been landed to the baggage claims or to the area where the luggage is loaded into another place. The primary function of BHS is to transport the luggage, however, a number of other functions are also severed by the typical BHS. For instance, it can be used for the detection of the bag jams, bag tracking, bag counting, redirection of the bags, to ensure that the bag is not overweighed and bag loading.
