    Happened on a recent flight with me. Company told us luggage was still on the origin airport, someone had an air tag and vehemently asked them to do a double check, and they miraculously found where it was supposed to be in the first place…

      On a recent trip we just went up to the youngest looking baggage worker, showed them, asked very nicely, and they walked back and found it. Tipped em 20 bucks for 5 minutes of effort. They were super nice.

      The airline was less than helpful, actively saying the bag was lost.

      Happened to me on a recent trip to a country well known for crime.

      Your luggage is lost sir, you’ll have to fill in a form.

      My luggage is about 15m away behind that wall. Here, see this map. Go get it.

      10 min later: Oh your luggage is here sir. Terribly sorry.

      Not sure if incompetence or shenanigans but I got my luggage back.
