Actually not the case. Odds do not change on the amount you fly. Statistics do not change based on number of times they are run. Just like flipping a coin, every time you flip it you have a 50% chance of heads. You do not have a different odds of heads when you flip once vs 100 times. Still 50-50 chance. Losing or delaying your bag is the same thing. Yes there are more times you are playing the odds but the odds are same each time!!!!!!!!
There are plenty of threads on the stats related to lost baggage, feel free to search it out.
Since this whole thread has gone way off the topic and turned into attacking people who dont share the same view as some of the posters (whose views are obviously engrained whether they meet the rules or not) I think I will be this thread adios and move on.......
