1. A baggage handling verification device for use with baggage to which is fixed an RFID baggage tag containing data, the device including:
a device user interface adapted to emit user-detectable signals;
at least one device attachment element adapted to releasably attach the device to a part of the body, other than the hands, of a user of the device;
an RFID signal receiving antenna;
an RFID reader adapted to read data received by the antenna from the tag, that data representing first parameters for use in determining a manner of handling baggage;
data memory adapted for storing data representing second parameters for use in determining a manner of handling baggage; and
a CPU adapted
to compare the first parameters represented by data read by the RFID reader with the second parameters represented by data stored in the data memory,
to determine if there is a match between the first parameters and second parameters,
to cause the user interface to emit at least one first predetermined user-detectable signal if the CPU determines that there is a match between the first parameters and second parameters and
to cause the user interface to emit at least one second predetermined user-detectable signal if the CPU determines that there is no match between the first parameters and second parameters
wherein the baggage handling verification device is adapted to enable acquiring of the data representing second parameters from a remote data source not being the RFID baggage tag, prior to storage of that data in the data memory,
to have an operational criterion, and
to enable acquiring of the data representing second parameters from the remote data source only if said operational criterion is met.
