Any idea / suggestion that I can claim back anything from KA...?
I don't think KA is totally responsible. I had by baggage handle damaged by Air China and the Air China check-in staff told me to go to a room (I think 6th floor via the lift). I found that Jardine Aviation Services is responsible for most airline's baggage claims (by the logos found), but they said my baggage was supposed to be like this.
