Take control of every mishandled bag, at every station, across every provider

Your tracing system knows a bag has gone wrong. HalaBag runs what happens next: allocation, custody, passenger communication, proof, SLA and cost, on one record you can see from head office.

The problem

Why this escalates to the executive floor

Each bag costs more than it used to

SITA puts the cost of a mishandled bag at US$260 (US$280 in the Middle East), and about 70% of it sits in recovery, rerouting and delivery. Fewer bags go wrong; each one costs more.

No control across handlers and 3PLs

At each outstation the local handler resolves the case on its own process, with whatever visibility it chooses to send back. You pay for outcomes you cannot see.

Manual coordination

Phone calls, spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups hold the operation together. It works until volume spikes, and then it reaches the CEO.

The regulator prices delay in cash

In Saudi Arabia the first day of baggage delay costs SAR 740 in compensation, and complaint-resolution rates are published monthly by airline.

What HalaBag gives you

What HalaBag gives an airline

Baggage recovery as a governed process

AHL and OHD cases flow from WorldTracer into a workflow you configure, allocated to the best-performing provider on that lane, with the passenger kept informed under your brand.

Control across providers

One view across handlers and 3PLs at every station: who has the bag, since when, against which SLA, at what cost.

SLA visibility

Contracted service levels monitored against actual performance per provider and per station, with exceptions raised before they become complaints.

Less manual coordination

Allocation, hand-offs, passenger messages and proof are system-driven. Your teams manage exceptions, not spreadsheets.

Ancillary revenue

Off-airport services sold inside your booking flow through one API, fulfilled by the same provider network and settled on the same platform.

  • Fewer bags escalate
  • Lower cost per resolved case
  • Same-day delivery measured, not assumed
  • Compensation exposure reduced
  • New ancillary lines

Frequently asked questions

No. WorldTracer remains the source system and the system of record for the tracing file. HalaBag receives the case from it, executes the resolution and writes status back.
