What is small Charge?
CUTE stands for Common Use Terminal Equipment. Airports and airlines share resources among themselves, so that the maximum capacity can be used for both passengers and airlines. Such charges are levied only because of resource sharing between the airport and the airlines. Qute is charged by airlines for sharing equipment, which is equivalent to pooling of ground support equipment (GSE pooling). Simply put, companies share check-in counters and bag tagging platforms among themselves, and in return for this, a cute charge is taken.

Small Tax is charged for this reason
Traditionally, all airlines have their own check-in counters. Companies also own and operate these counters on their own. All companies use their different software for check-in and bag tag. Airports have CUTE technology, which enables all airlines to run their apps on a single platform. This allows for sharing of check-in counters and bag tag provider platforms, if needed.
