So question - should I ask AA to just fly it to STT themselves and deliver it to me?

Let me know any tips on how to handle this - I'm wondering where the bag ended up!
good day,

i had a very similar event happen years ago. when i arrived in STT i checked with the baggage people there immediately, and every day for 2 or 3 days. the baggage people in STT were communicating by TTY to miami [my departure point] each time i made a request looking for the bag. finally, the bag was there.

if you go this way, check daily in STT and be polite -- us will be doing you a favor, and it could easily take a couple of days.

as far as compensation, someone else needs to answer that. enjoy STT.
