In simple airline parlance, a 'checked' bag is a piece of baggage that has, or is about to be handed over to the airline for cartage with the passenger. The term 'checked bags' refers to passengers who have checked in at the ticket counter or kerb and have obtained a receipt for the baggage. The receipt contains a bar-code indicating the board-point and destination and flight details.
In some of the most distant locations on the planet, non-automated baggage receipts may still be used. However, it requires passengers to re-check their baggage at a point where the baggage details become part of the PNR (Passenger Name Record) or booking.
