We were travelling to India from US through Paris. After we boarded the flight, they found hydrolics issue in the carrier and the carrier was Air France.We had to board another flight arranged by AF. In India on arrival our baggages were missed.They could locate the baggage and said will come in the next flight.

Can you please advice me how do i claim for the delay as i was attending the religious ceremony for a niece, i had buy all the stuff i'm suppose to wear and also the gifts to give her?
