Its a fastrak system for those just dropping a bag and not other issues. Yes, similar to the present system but limited to those without other issues and therefore no slow down for the assigned agents. Should lead to a faster process on average than the present system.

It is a streamline process for those eligible. If you are always getting thru the present bag check process with no delays, then it will not make much difference.

If you don't check bags, something many here don't, it is a don't care.
