After a week without a satisfying answer from the airline that lost her bag, a P.E.I. woman took matters into her own hands, returned to the airport where it was lost, and found it herself.

After a week without a satisfying answer from the airline that lost her bag, a P.E.I. woman took matters into her own hands, returned to the airport where it was lost, and found it herself.

Airlines will have to start considering to either using AirTags themselves or require all bag to have a tracking device. This is becoming way to common

I don’t like this attitude usually, but it seems fitting here - they just don’t care. I’m sure they could find your bag, every bag gets bar-coded, they just don’t care.

Usually when they lose your bag, it’s because the barcode gets torn off. If you don’t have anything identifiable in your luggage, they’ll have a hard time finding it.

Or, maybe use the system that’s designed to tag and track bags already.

Remember when terrorism fears made it so every bag must accompany its owner? How are we doing on that if we can’t be arsed to check whose bag it is?

Kind of related, I found mine myself once while about to fill out the form for lost luggage.

“Hi, I need to report lost lugg… oh, there it is”, I said, as I noticed my very recognizable pelicase behind the luggage agent.

To their defense, the luggage tag had fallen off somewhere in transit, and they were about to enter it into the system. Luckily IAH was the destination airport.
