All this and no travel insurance?

I know it is frustrating if any airline loses a bag, but equally I know I'd never depend on the airline for full compensation if it happens. I don't delcare the value of my luggage every time I fly so I don't expect them to cover me completely for its loss either.

That's what insurance is for ...
