Effective March 1, Central Bag gage Services will move from the General Office in Winston-Salem to the old Charlotte terminal in the area that was previously occupied by our ticket counters and opera tions. The department will gain much needed space for the office and storage area. “We will occupy approximately 3,000 sq. ft. of com bined office and storage space,” Allen Johnson, director of Baggage Services said, "and we will have two direct phone lines to the general office so that when a passenger calls the corporate office with bag gage problems our line will ring in Charlotte. For almost three years, Baggage Services has been working out of two locations. The inventoiy has been stored at the Smith Reynolds Airport terminal building and the staff has been in the GO. Since Pied mont discontinued service to INT last fall, baggage has been trucked daily to and from GSO. "This new set up will be much more convenient and efficient, pro viding better customer service," Johnson said. "We will also be able to work better with our station peo ple under the new system. Because of the many daily flights we have out of Charlotte, we can quickly return found luggage to a customer as well as travel to a station on our system out and back in the same day while providing any needed assistance to that station." Bob Thayer, manager and Cheryl Maier, claims representative, will also relocate to the new office. In addition, the department will have two secretaries, a full-time inven toiy clerk, and a part-time inven tory clerk.
