It is described a passenger transport system (1) comprising:- at least one electromechanical self powering RF signal generator (4) having a push & return mechanism (4-1), and- at least one passenger seat (2) having a seat region (2-1), wherein said push & return mechanism (4-1) is installed,said generator (4), which is provided with an RF transmitter (6), is equipped to self generate electric power based on a mechanical force applied on the push & return mechanism (4-1) by a passenger sitting in the seat region (2-1), andwhereby said generated electric power is used for the RF transmitter (6) to transmit an RF signal on an adjustable frequency in case the passenger sitting in the seat region (2-1) thereby presses a switch (4-2) of the push & return mechanism (4-1), andwhich passenger transport system (1) further comprises:- a central RF receiver (7) for receiving transmitted RF signals which have features to identify the individual passenger seats (2) the RF signals are transmitted from, and- means (8) for based on the received RF signals deriving information indicating which of the passenger seats (2) are and/or are not occupied.
