The Hillsborough County Aviation Authority backed the plan to fix check-in bottlenecks and add cutting-edge bag handling by 2029. A state-of-the-art bag system and fresh check-in space. "Part of our master plan, which is a blueprint for keeping up with our tremendous growth, is to modernize our ticketing level and our baggage system," airport spokesman Joshua Gillin said, according to WTSP. "I'm in favor of it if it makes things go more smoothly," he said. "But I'm not in favor of it if it takes people's jobs away."
