Well based on reading the Alaska Twitter page, it appears they are doing all they can. It doesn't help that people reading @mamasphor's blog are writing in implying that Alaska Airlines should do more. I mean what else can they do now? The whole DCA airport has been alerted. How many man hours are being burned looking for this laptop? Based on reading the blog, she didn't notice the laptop was gone until checking into the hotel. What about the taxi? Could it have been left in the taxi? I'm thinking it will turn up eventually.
