Italian term

allestimento/disallestimento bagagli

Italian to English Other Transport / Transportation / Shipping baggage handling
"Il Baggage Handling System dell'aeroporto di XXX, è dotato di 56 baie per l'allestimento bagagli dei voli in partenza ed una capacità di trattamento automatico di 12.000 bagagli/ora."

"al livello dei piazzali sosta aeromobili un ampliamento della esistente area di disallestimento dei bagagli in arrivo."

This seems to be referring to the stage where luggage is stacked on trucks to be brought out and loaded into the hold (and later unloaded and "de-stacked" before being sent to the baggage claim area or whatever) but I don't know the term. Can anyone out there help? TIA

"packing" in this context obviously does not refer to an individual packing their bags. This is "airport talk".

loading/unloading of baggage

It seems the most natural to use "loading and unloading" as opposed to packing or stacking.

Either way, good luck! :-)
