North Carolina airport Charlotte Douglas International has announced the opening of a new $11 million baggage transfer facility, aimed at cutting down on lost luggage.

American Airlines oversaw the opening of the facility, housed in a standalone building on concourse E, along with its regional carrier Piedmont Airlines.

“Bags can always get misplaced, but because of the new tracking ability we have a better idea of where they are, whereas when they were out (on the tarmac), you didn’t really know if your bag was even out there or not,” said Patrick Wegmiller, senior manager of Piedmont customer operations.
