Wow, I lost my luggage once this year. It was recovered the next day though. Incredible how many things get lost per year, makes you wonder what happened to those 200 000 bags that disappeared!

There are probably a lot of luggages that were stolen.
Not every airport checks if you leave with the same number of luggages you had registered.

Since I’ve been here, at least two guests have lost their luggage from airlines. It sucks. Especially if you have any thing of real importance in your luggage. But then again, that’s when you carry the important stuff on you.

It sucks. Even if you don’t carry important stuff, you can be stuck in a foreign country with no clothes…

Yeah, my friend lost her luggage before… that was a bad situation. You feel so violated. The other stories were really nice, too. I can’t believe that sticky ball story. That’s hilarious!
