At Arrival You just arrived at your destination after a smooth, quite and enjoyable flight. And, if it was one of those long haul international or intercontinental flights, I wouldn’t be surprised that you are glad to stretch your legs and are looking forward to meet your friends or relatives. The only thing left to do, is to collect your luggage. Claiming your bags There you are at the carousel, waiting for your luggage to pass by. You recognize what you believe is yours, but is it? To your surprise, one of the suitcases is unlocked, while you are certain you locked your baggage prior to check-in. Is everything still there? And, what if your luggage is damaged, or did not arrive at all? Delayed bags Luggage is passing by on the carousel, but yours are not among them. All other passengers picked up their bags and left, while you are still standing there. Well, don’t panic, your luggage may not have been on the same flight as yourself and will arrive on the next flight. However, make sure you take all necessary steps and report it to the airline. Damage Your luggage is passing by on the carousel and, while you take your belongings of the belt, you notice that your luggage is damaged, or that the cases are unlocked. If the latter is the case, immediately check the contents. Make sure to take the necessary steps and report it to the airline. Lost luggage All baggage passed by on the carousel, but yours are definitely not among them. You took all necessary steps and reported it to the airline, who suggested that your luggage may not have been on the same flight as yourself and will arrive on a next flight. But it doesn’t and has to be officially declared to be lost. How to protect your baggage Million of bags cruise through airport carousels each day, with only a small percentage of those being "mishandled" or routed to the wrong airport. Theft is more rampant than the traveler would like to believe, particularly on longer flights. So, how to protect your baggage from getting lost? Claims No claim for loss, damage, or delay in delivery of baggage, or for personal injury or death passenger will be entertained by Carrier unless written notice of the claim is presented to an office of Carrier. Limits on liability The airline will probably invoke a ceiling per passenger on the amount of money they'll pay you. When your luggage and its contents are worth more than that, you should have considered purchasing "excess valuation", or even a travel insurance. Ground transportation You have arrived at your destination and collected your luggage. You are now ready to either travel back home, travel to your (business) appointment, or to a temporary place to stay, such as a hotel. Will you use public transportation, a taxi, your own car, or will you ask a friend or relative to meet you at the airport?
