I didn't say it was specifically's AA's problem, but rather it was BA's as they were the last carrier to have flown cigarman in. But I was highlighting the fact that transfers between CX and BA when bags go missing at CDG is more common than not since the ground handling is handled the "AA way". I don't know why this is so. It does not mean that it will happen all the time.. but rather, it is common.

Bags can go missing anywhere and at anytime. And when it does happen, we all hope that that little plastic tag on the handle of the missing bag will get noticed and someone will report it.

We hope!
