Abstract: The system includes a webserver (110) to generate a passenger journey document file (PJDF) (160) comprising a plurality of end-to-end passenger travel reservations (PTRs) for a set of passengers. The PJDF includes, for each travel leg of an end-to-end PTRs, a single-sheet integrated end-to-end travel instrument (Tl) template (1000A) populated with an official boarding pass identifier (BPID) (1209) issued by one of a plurality of disparate travel host systems (JTHSs) (1501, 1502, . . . , 150Y) for a respective leg. Each TI template comprising an emulated boarding pass barcode (1211) associated with the BPID for the respective leg, and for N checked-in luggage items for the respective passenger, populated with X temporary luggage tag identifiers (LTIDs) (1231A, 1233A) linked to up to X official bag tag identifiers (BTIDs) (1209) from the JTHS of the leg, wherein X and N are integers. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the LTIDs and BTIDs.

Abstract: An illustrative method for performing a remote check-in service includes receiving accommodation information, where at least a portion of the accommodation information originates from an accommodation provider. The accommodation information includes key information corresponding to an accommodation for a customer. A key is provided to the customer for the accommodation based at least in part on the key information. The key is provided to the customer at a first location of the customer, where the first location is remote from a second location of the accommodation provider.

Abstract: A baggage tagging system in which information about additional baggage routing is communicated to an airline computer or server, and an additional routing tag including the additional baggage routing data is generated and is attached to a traveler's bags. An initial tag used for air travel is printed at a remote location and attached to the traveler's bags. By utilizing the initial and additional routing tags, the traveler's bags are efficiently routed from the pick-up location to a selected destination.

Abstract: A baggage tagging system in which a tag used for air travel includes—in addition to data about the air travel—data and information for travel using another mode of transportation, such as, a boat, train, or bus, or a destination other than an airport destination. Information for both the air travel and the second transportation mode are contained on a single baggage tag. Multiple tags are, therefore, not needed.

Abstract: A computer-based baggage transportation system includes a client computer and an attendant. The client computer is coupled via a network to a server computer and is configured to check in baggage and passengers from a property that is remote from a common carrier departure location. The attendant is cross-utilized with the remote property. That is, the attendant performs remote common carrier check-in services as well as remote property services. The attendant has met federal agency approval standards for common carrier check-in services.
