AF told me I need to provide original receipts for everything with 21 days. I have the receipt for the bag ($300) but it is in Reno and so I have no way to get to it since I will not be back there for 2 months.

As for my clothes and other items, since I have no receipts (does anyone have receipts for clothes they bought 6 months ago?), there can't be compensation.

Most of the items in my bag are unavailable in the Czech Republic. Wondering if AF will pay the DL change fees so I don't have to fly AF or through CDG on the return?

This is the second time I have flown AF on the CDG-PRG route connecting from the USA, and both times my luggage has been lost (last time they never completely lost it, but it took 3 or 4 days to get back to me). I'll never fly AF or use CDG again.

Ironically, last time this happened AF gave me an AF T-Shirt... which is now lost in my bag.
