How to recover your lost luggage?


Once again cheers long-awaited vacation!  Escaped finally from ostochertevshey trajectory "home-work-home", was chosen by an appropriate sentence in the range of your favorite travel agent, collected our bags and go quickly - in a new journey of dreams!  Let not such an exotic, as in the pre-crisis times, but still attractive and promising.
 So-so ... The first signs of "promising" start to appear after a few minutes after landing at the destination.  We - in order, our better half - the same kind of children as a whole.  And the luggage?  Where is our luggage?  Oh, you derived from all the letters of the great Russian alphabet, so rastak you and your elite service!  You would have the money to pay?  Call me chief of the airport here immediately!

 Hush-a citizen, not to worry, calm down.  No panic, please!  There has been a slight misunderstanding, but rest assured - everything will be fine.  Lost things always come to their owners, now face it.  Let's order.  Say, you guessed it before flying off with a suitcase tag left over from previous trips?  And then, because of their different times and the whole mess out.  In any case, an employee of the airline, making out luggage was supposed to replace them with new ones.  Well, you see, you are perfectly aware that this is what he did.
 And the new label you name and contact info on what language specified?  In Russian?  It was necessary, and in English too, is in fact quite simple.  Birochka could break away and become lost.  Girls, let's raise our database: possibly when registering or loading there was a computer malfunction.  The loader can be mistaken in the end.  Stolen, you say?  Hmm, interesting version, of course, but in my opinion, the least likely of all.  He is, perhaps, with gold clasps you have had, or with the inscription "The Treasure of the Incas?  Why are potential thieves had laid eyes on him, and not on others?
 And anyway, you are on neighboring conveyors looked?  Along with your plane can unload a few more, and cart your suitcase (and not just yours, by the way) accidentally rolled the other way.  Have not found?  Well, let's go to a representative of your airline.  Vaughn rack labeled "Lost and Found" See?  Ah, here in Russian no signs?
 Then ... carefully looks around ... well, of course, the same - here it is: «Lost and Found.  Come on!  Try to describe in detail the "resourceful" Officer, look what your luggage. To photograph it before flying on a mobile phone you have, of course, not smart enough?  It is a pity, while searching for now would be reduced, at least twice.  From now on, Take you this a habit - and things will tselee, and nerves, too.
 Any self-respecting international airline connected to the system of global search baggage World Tracer.  If you are lucidly and clearly explained, that are looking for, then locate baggage cleared within a few minutes.  Loss you try to deliver as soon as possible.
 But, alas, sometimes luggage is lost without a trace.  If it does not show up within five days, you will be prompted to make a list of what it was.  List of things will also be included in the search network World Traker.  In their search around the world play for 21 days.  At 22 th day of baggage officially recognized as missing.  You are entitled to claim compensation for it.
Passengers who arrived with the flight or flights USA EU countries can count on the amount of size up to 1000 euros.  Our domestic carriers will pay for the loss in "net weight": for every kilogram relies $ 20.  If the luggage is not weighed, it receives 400 green and is not perturbed, the next time will be more circumspect.
Since neither the airline will not pay you the money right away - it is legal for three weeks to find a rely, and then all kinds of "organizational issues please" at least another week, take away, holidays can be regarded as hopelessly corrupt.  Left the house with heavy baggage, returned - empty-handed ...
 In practice some airlines include the immediate issuance of passengers essentials.  As an option - the payment of compensation for delay of baggage.  For economy class passengers it represents about $ 50 in business class - up to $ 100.  This is for you gain the nearest shopping, buy new things instead of lost.  Individual air carriers on the fifth day after the registration of loss you happy just check to buy clothes.  Not in the leading fashion houses, of course.  But, in general, quite reasonable additional reason to update a wardrobe.  If the luggage was not there, "clothes" money from you then calculate the issuance of compensation.
 Some statistics.  Most often lose their luggage European airlines - such as British Airways, Air France, Lufthansa and KLM.  Out of every thousand of their customers about 16 by the end flight found ourselves short of their suitcases.  And not because there is service at a low level.  These giants are very much on transit flights, and in this situation responsible for the loss of luggage is the last carrier, even if in fact guilty of the partner company.
 And the final chord - Tip: If you are really expensive your property, insure it before the flight.  You can ask the manager about this travel agency, the issuing you a ticket.  Then afterwards we will require double compensation - and the carrier-rasteryashi, and from the insurance company.
