Did an airline ever lose your luggage?
Arrange to have a friend meet you at the terminal gate when you deplane.
Give your friend your baggage claim checks and have him/her retrieve your bags
from the carousel, then leave the baggage area with your bags. Before your
friend leaves the airport with your luggage, be sure to get your claim checks
back. Then, you saunter over to the baggage area, spend half an hour waiting
for your bags. Ask some clerks for help, then report your "missing" luggage,
showing your claim checks as proof. Very few flights ever have a clerk
actually check the baggage and collect claim checks. It's foolish, but they
don't. Make a polite, but firm scene and demand satisfaction. Normally, the
airline people will have you fill out a form and they will attempt to find
your luggage. Obviously, they won't find it. Bug them some... write them
letters. Soon, you should get a good settlement from the airline. Don't try
to pull this one on the same airline more than once!
