Sometimes
the quickest way to get from one place to another is to fly. And sometimes,
luggage does not make it with you to the final destination. Forbes Living
offers tips for air travelers that might not be known.
The
flight was relatively stress-free and might we say –relaxing. All of the luggage seems to be out and on the
carousel at the destination airport. The carousel spins around and around and
there is no sight of your luggage. When it seems there is nothing else coming
out and that all of the bags are claimed, what is a traveler to do?
Before
Leaving Home
Make
a copy of a business card or print your name, hotel name or name of destination
address on paper and attach it inside the suitcase. Luggage tags can and have
been removed.
Pack
medication, valuables and two changes of clothes in a bag to place over the
seat. If the larger bag is lost or misrouted, at least you have clean clothes.
Install
an app that tracks bags.
At
the destination airport:
Before
leaving, visit the lost and found office for the airline that brought you here.
Ask to make a claim because your bag is lost or has been misrouted. Make note
of the airline rep you spoke with, date and time, and then email the airline
directly with this information.
ForbesLiving TV knows that sometimes bags are misrouted and not truly lost. But in
any case, find and speak to an airline employee about the missing bag. Be
honest on the claim about the content worth.
