Passengers flying with British Airways from London City Airport can now use a new self tagging system introduced by the airline.

British Airways chose London City as the second airport world-wide to offer its customers revolutionary self-help technology with a new bag tagging system switched on last month.

The airline first launched self bag tagging at Gatwick Airport in October when it opened its new check-in hall in the North Terminal.

Now British Airways customers travelling from the Docklands airport to destinations in the UK and Europe can print and attach tags to their own bags at a self-service kiosk and put them at a bag drop desk.

The technology was designed specifically for British Airways and has proved so successful it was decided to install it at London City.
