The scheduling of outbound baggage at international airports is a challenging task in the airport industry. The issue is to control the incoming baggage flow in order to balance the workload over the system. The resource consumption of the different activities, which have to be scheduled, are depending on the arrival process of the baggage. Because of high complexity we suggest a decomposition heuristic to tackle this problem.
