Are you serious? Not lost, but delayed. I've had ridiculous issues with UA baggage. Most recent was 1 of 2 bags didn't make it, it never got loaded at SFO despite being checked 1:20 out. All flights on time, UA didn't reroute via most expeditious route possible after the miss (which would have delayed the bag 4 hours), rather they rerouted it over the same route, which delayed it 24 hours.

If I had the same level of flexibility and little urgency, UA would be tolerable.
