Aviation Word of the Day - Fallback Carousel

Fallback Carousel

Hi Friends, Aviation word of the Day - Fallback Carousel. Can you think of this word being taught to you while doing your Aviation courses?
It was a word I came across during ORAT ( Operation Readiness and Transfer ) after the Terminal at Indira Gandhi International Airport was built in New Delhi. I was intrigued with the many upgrades that were incorporated during the build up.
The busiest and the biggest Airport in India.

As you may know that many Upgrades and break through Innovations are happening in the Aviation industry.

It is important that I share the Importance and Fucnstions of the Fallback Carousel. As you know that airport has become so much convienet for Travellers by Air. Today you can check-in at an airport at your own convienence and around the clock (24hrs). In this case a passenger checks-in early, drops off his baggage at the airport, goes into a meeting and comes back to the airport at D-60Mins for the flight. In this case his baggage is handled / Sorted by the BHS (Baggage Handling System) through the various Bar Code scanners the BHS is fitted with. The Bag is then sorted / held on an isolated Sorter / Carousel but not released till the flight is assigned to a baggage carousel. Once the carousel is assigned the bag is automatically picked up and sent to the assigned carousel. As most you might own Iphones nowadays which has the Icloud application. Such is the Innovation you find at an Airport. The Fallback Carousel is used for Early check-in, late Check-in, Tag Less, Un Tag, Open, No Read and Transfer baggage.
