"Uninitialized variable" means that you're reading a variable before any value has been written into it. The warning message furthermore tells you that the variable in question is 'numberofBagsToPassenger'.

This begs the question ... are you sure your program assigned a value to 'numberofBagsToPassenger' before checking to see if it is less than 2?

The C Standard does not require compilers to detect uninitialized variables. You're fortunate that your compiler goes the extra mile to warn you of this mistake.
