The first bag arrives on the 26th after a lot of calls to the baggage desk and EXP desk. The second arrives on the 27th, but I look in the bag to find I am missing a bowling ball and other contents have been sifted through. In addition, the bag has been significantly damaged.

What should I do to make sure I get the most reimbursement from this? Has anyone else ever had anything stolen from their luggage?

Thanks!
I think to get the most back, up to the limit, you need to show a purchase receipt for each of the items lost or damaged.
