Information Technologies and Automation

When you have more than 200 wide-body and 20 narrow-body movements a week, you need a
top-league information management system like LUCAS (LuxairCARGO System). LUCAS speeds the flow through our Cargocenter by automatically managing and monitoring all shipments and processes.

The paperless system is fully linked with customs, airlines and forwarders. So handlers can plan their workloads in advance and customs can release goods even before they arrive. All these processes are speeded by bar-code technology, identifying which shipments are on which pallets and enhancing security by the automatic check-listing of restricted articles.
