Is it pretty common for a baggage to not make it if the connection time is around an hour or so? Also, what's the usual turnaround time for AA to reload delayed baggage into another flight? I thought it will be a same day thing, but that hasn't been the case thus far.
It's not common for a bag not to make that type of connection. AA should get the bag to you without you having to return to the airport if you have provided them with an address. If you're away from home they should provide you with reimbursement for necessities but not if you're at home. Most of my delayed bags have been returned in a day or 2, but once I waited for 3 weeks. Good luck.
