KLM had flights from Amsterdam at 19:54, 19:59 and 20:07 that all had luggage come out before ours did. What the heck?
Then today in MCO from LGW, I was at baggage claim for at least half an hour waiting for my supposedly priority bag. The wildest things was seeing maybe 5-10 bags a minute come out--like a leaky faucet drip drip drip instead of a stream. Does BA only pay one person to do all the work and he needs to rest or...?
OK, rant over.

By the way, the flight crew on both segments were excellent. And I really enjoyed the BA First lounge at Gatwick. So it's not all doom and gloom. Just wish BA would get their act together when it comes to timely delivery of checked bags.
